Description
If your System is set up to provide Background Music, music can be played from the speakers of idle 
telephones. If a call is made to an extension receiving Background Music, the music stops and the 
phone rings. Background Music is also interrupted when the phone goes offhook.
The System can also provide Music-on-Hold (MOH) using a separate music source. If MOH is 
provided, callers automatically hear music when they are placed on hold. (For more information on 
MOH, see page 46.)
