About Phone and Video Capabilities
The Phone and Video capabilities described in this part of the Getting Started Guide require Phone and
Video capabilities to be enabled in your environment. If you are not sure if these capabilities are
available, contact your system administrator.
Phone capabilities with Communicator can be configured for Enterprise Voice or for Remote Call
Control, as described in the following:
Enterprise Voice. With Enterprise Voice, your phone system offers full unified
communication capabilities, including the ability to make single-party and multi-party
VoIP calls, configure robust call forwarding features and receive Voice Mail in your
Exchange mailbox. To determine if Communicator is set up for Enterprise Voice, click the
arrow to the right of the Call button . If you see a Preferred Calling Device option,
you are configured for Remote Call Control, not Enterprise Voice.
Remote Call Control. With Remote Call Control, your phone system is integrated with a
PBX system and offers call forwarding features, but does not offer features such as ringing
an additional number or redirecting unanswered calls. To determine if Communicator is set
up for Remote Call Control, click the arrow to the right of the Call button . If you see
a Preferred Calling Device option, you are configured for Remote Call Control.
