The display panel on an NBX Telephone shows the name and extension of
an internal caller. If your organization purchases Caller ID service from
your telephone company and if the external caller allows Caller ID
information to be broadcast, the display panel shows the external caller’s
name and telephone number.
You can answer the call while the line’s status light is still flashing. Put the
first call on hold and press the Access button for the new incoming call.
