The Cisco IP Phone 7970G demonstrates the latest technology and advancements in VoIP telephony. It addresses not only the needs of the executive or major decision maker but also brings network data and applications to users without PCs. This state-of-the-art IP phone includes a backlit, high-resolution color touch-screen display for easy access to communication information, timesaving applications, and feature usage.

ADDITIONAL FEATURES

The internal Cisco 2-port Ethernet switch allows for direct connections to a 10/100BASE-T Ethernet network via an RJ-45 interface with single LAN connectivity for both the phone and a colocated PC. The system administrator can designate separate VLANs (802.1Q) for the PC and Cisco IP phones, providing improved information security and voice and data reliability.

A dedicated headset port eliminates the need for a separate amplifier when using a headset. This allows the handset to remain in its cradle, simplifying headset use.

The handset is hearing aid compatible (HAC) and meets Federal Communications Commission (FCC) loudness requirements for the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Section 508 loudness requirements can be achieved using industry-standard in-line handset amplifiers such as Walker Equipment W-10 or CE-100 amplifiers.

The dial pad is also ADA-compliant.
