Ringdown Extension
Description
A Ringdown Extension automatically calls a co-worker, voice mail, a Ring Group, a UCD Group, or a Speed
Dial number when the user lifts the handset. The call automatically goes through — there is no need for the
user to dial digits or press additional keys. Ringdown extensions are frequently used for lobby phones, where
the caller just lifts the handset to get the information desk.

Features
Intercom
(page 211)
Ringdown Extension follows the voice-announce status of destination extension. For example, if an
extension usually voice-announces Intercom calls, a ringdown to that extension will also voice-announce.
Ringing Line Preference
(page 295)
Ringing Line Preference has precedence over Ringdown Extension. If Ringing Line Preference is ringing
the phone, lifting the handset answers the call. Lifting the handset does not call the Ringdown destination.
Voice Mail
(page 372)
If the Ringdown destination is the voice mail master number, the Ringdown Extension user hears the
voice mail remote logon prompt (“
Please enter your mailbox number
”) after the call connects.
IntraMail Features
None
Call another extension, group or voice mail just by lifting the handset.
