Configuring the Idle Display

can be heard by the far endpoint—noise such as rustling papers or nearby conversations. Even without
a wideband headset, some users may prefer the additional sensitivity of G.722. Other users may be
distracted by the additional sensitivity of G.722.

Note

The phone does not support wideband handset.

The following parameters in Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration affect whether
wideband is supported for this Cisco Unified Communications Manager server and a specific phone:

Advertise G.722 Codec—From Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, choose
System > Enterprise Parameters. The default value of this enterprise parameter is True, which
means that all Cisco Unified IP Phone Models 7931G, 7941G, 7941G-GE, 7961G, 7961G-GE,
7970G, and 7971G-GE that are registered to this Cisco Unified Communications Manager will
advertise G.722 to Cisco Unified Communications Manager. If each endpoint in the attempted call
supports G.722 in its capabilities set, Cisco Unified Communications Manager chooses that codec for
the call.

Advertise G.722 Codec—From Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration, choose
Device > Phone. The default value of this product-specific parameter is to use the value specified
in the enterprise parameter. If you want to override this on a per-phone basis, choose Enabled or
Disabled in the Advertise G.722 Codec parameter on the Product Specific Configuration area of the
Phone Configuration window.

Configuring the Idle Display

You can specify an idle display that appears on the phone screen. The idle display is an XML service
that the phone invokes when the phone has been idle (not in use) for a designated period and no feature
menu is open.

XML services that can be used as idle displays include company logos, product pictures, and stock
quotes.

Configuring the idle display consists of these general steps.

1.

Formatting an image for display on the phone.

2.

Configure Cisco Unified Communications Manager to display the image on the phone.
