Names for Extensions and Lines
Description
Extensions and lines can have names instead of just circuit numbers. These names show on a keyset’s dis-
play when the user places or answers calls. Extension and line names make it easier to identify callers. The 
user does not have to refer to a directory when processing calls. Extension and line names can consist of 
upper and lower case letters, spaces and punctuation, and can be up to 18 characters long. 
Extension names display when placing or answering Intercom calls. Line names display when using the fol-
lowing features:
Refer to Feature Operation below when entering names.
