An extension user can make a paging announcement to several people at once. The announcement is heard through the built-in speakers of proprietary telephones (PTs) and/or an external pager (loudspeaker), depending on the type of Paging that is performed as follows:

Type Paging method All Extensions  The page is heard through the built-in speakers of all PTs. External  The page is heard through an external pager. Group  The page is heard through the built-in speakers of the PTs that belong to a certain extension group ( Extension Group [600]). All Extensions & External  The page is heard through the built-in speakers of all PTs and an external pager simultaneously.

The paged person can answer the page from a nearby telephone. It is possible to page with a call on hold in order to transfer the call.
