With the change to the new Cisco telephone system as part of the network upgrade, a shift is taking place. In the old Alcatel Lucent telephone system, call numbers were tied to telephones. In the new Cisco telephone system, on the other hand, telephone numbers are assigned to persons. This provides users with additional options for organizing their communications independently and flexibly.

Employees can use the digital TK-Application to request new installations, relocations or changes for the telephone system of the respective institution.

Benefits for employees:

  • Mobile accessibility under the business phone number even outside the RWTH
  • Individual definition of call forwarding
  • Self-administration by users
  • Activation and deactivation of individual features

This range of functions is mapped by Cisco Jabber as a softphone and by the TK-Portal for configuration.
