Feature References
The administrator phone functions as both a standard system phone and an administrator
phone. However, because this guide describes features that are programmed from the
administrator phone only, refer to the appropriate phone user guides for detailed feature
descriptions and end-user instructions.
Previous Software and Hardware Versions
This guide provides instructions for Mitel 5000 CP v3.2 software. You may find that some
features referenced in this guide do not apply to your system. For more information, refer to the
hardware or software manuals for your product or software version. Contact your local
authorized Mitel provider (the company that installed your phone system and now services it) for
more information. If you do not have the contact information for your local provider, use the
“Strategic Partners & Resellers – Mitel Partner Locator” link at the top of the Mitel Web site
(www.mitel.com) to locate a nearby office.
Administrator Programming Planning Sheets
You can use the included programming planning sheets to help you plan your site system and
voice mail programming requirements. For programming planning sheets and default system
feature codes, see the “Reference” chapter beginning on page 47.
System Networks and Nodes
Two or more 5000 CP systems can be connected to form a network, providing a seamless
interface between the systems. For example, a 5000 CP system in Phoenix, Arizona can be
connected to another 5000 CP system in Tampa, Florida. System users can place calls across
the network to other extensions as if they were in the same building. However, each system can
have its own time settings, call configurations, System Speed-Dial contacts, and so on.
In this guide, all references to a network mean two or more connected systems. Each system in
a network is called a node.
The maximum capacities for networking appear in Table 1.
