Using the Cisco Attendant Console

The Cisco Attendant Console is an accessory console for the Cisco SPA500

Series IP phones, providing 32 three-color (red, green, and orange) programmable

line buttons. The Cisco Attendant Console attaches to the IP phone with the

attachment arm provided. It obtains power directly from the IP phone; it does not

require a separate power supply. Two Cisco Attendant Console units can be

attached to a single IP phone to monitor a total of 64 separate lines.

Detailed information on the installation of the Cisco Attendant Console are

provided in the Cisco Small Business Attendant Console Quick Start Guide.

Configuration of the Cisco Attendant Console and assignment of the line buttons is

typically performed by the phone system administrator and are not described in

this document. The Cisco Attendant Console can can be configured by using the

same phone web user interface for the IP phone to which the Cisco Attendant

Console is attached. See the Cisco SPA300 Series, SPA500 Series, and WIP310

Administration Guide on Cisco.com for more information.
