How to Use the
7914 Expansion Module
The 7914 Expansion Module functions as a line appearance or
speed dial module, allowing you to keep track of calls in
progress, calls on hold, and calls requiring transfer. All call
functions, such as answering a call, placing a call on hold,
transferring a call, and so on, are performed from the
Cisco IP Phone 7960. See the
Cisco IP Phone 7960 and 7940
Series User Guide

configure speed dial numbers, see the “Configuring Speed Dial
Numbers” section on page 16.
