Making a Call to a
Remote Office
You can dial calls between sites in your organization that are separated
geographically but that are linked by a Wide Area Network (WAN)
connection. Each site must have an VCX system. Typical configurations
are described in the next sections.
Using Unique Extensions
In some companies with geographically separated offices, everyone in the
entire organization has a unique telephone extension. Whenever you
make a call to an extension that is not located at your own site, your VCX
system sets up a connection to the VCX system at the other extension’s
site.
