Voice Mail Overflow
Description
The UX5000 can reroute outside calls when all voice mail ports are busy. This assures an alternate answer-
ing point for calls if voice mail can’t answer. In addition, the UX5000 can automatically reroute unanswered
outside calls to the voice mail Automated Attendant. This type of overflow ensures that voice mail will pick
up calls that don’t go through, allowing callers to leave a message rather than having to call back later.
Voice mail can be the overflow destination for the following types of calls:
■
Central Office Calls, Answering
A trunk ringing extension’s line keys can overflow to voice mail.
■
Direct Inward Line (DIL)
A trunk that directly rings an extension can overflow to voice mail.
■
Direct Inward System Access (DISA)
A DISA trunk ringing an unanswered extension can overflow to voice mail.
If voice mail automatically answers trunks, Voice Mail Overflow can reroute those trunks to other exten-
sions when all voice mail ports do not answer or are busy. During periods of high traffic, this prevents the
outside calls from ringing voice mail for an inordinate amount of time. There are two types of Voice Mail
Overflow: Immediate and Delayed. With immediate overflow, calls immediately reroute to other extensions
when all voice mail ports do not answer or are busy. With delayed overflow, calls reroute after a preset inter-
val. Without any type of overflow, the outside calls ring voice mail until a port becomes available or the out-
side caller hangs up.
