An Overview of the
Cisco Unified IP Phone
The Cisco Unified SIP Phone 3911 provides voice communication over an
Internet Protocol (IP) network. The IP Phone functions like a digital business
telephone, allowing you to place and receive phone calls and to access features
such as mute, hold, transfer, speed dial, and call forward. The IP Phone also
supports security features that include image and digest authentication.
The Cisco Unified SIP Phone 3911 is interoperable with RFC-3261, RFC-3264,
RFC-3264, RFC-3311, RFC 3515, and RFC-3891.
An IP Phone, like other network devices, must be configured and managed. These
phones support G.711a, G.711u, G.729(decode only), and G.729a. This manual
describes the Cisco Unified SIP Phone 3911.
