I don't think there is going to be anything native in CM to do what you want.<br><br>However take a look at syn-apps they have something almost identical to what you are describing.<br><a href="http://syn-apps.com">http://syn-apps.com</a><br>

We recently migrated our health center from Nortel Meridian phones to 7941/7961s on CUCM 7.1(3) and one of the things we found out after we were almost done was that the two phones in the reception area had two buttons on their Nortel Meridian phones that they described as "buzzers" for the two nurses phones on the other side of the facility.<br>
<br>
I don't know how it was implemented on the Nortel side, but from what was described (they press a button at a reception phone and the nurses phone makes a tone) the closest feature I could come up with on short notice was Intercom. We built intercom lines on all four phones and instructed the reception to simply dial the intercom for the nurse they wanted, then hang up.<br>
<br>
The nurses complained that the intercom alert tone is too quiet and too quick - so we switched to having the reception staff verbally announce "Patient X is here for you" but now they complain that if they are on the phone the voice comes through the handset mixed with the existing caller rather than through the speaker.<br>
<br>
I haven't found any way to increase the volume of or change the alert tone, and the way the intercom mixes with a regular call on the handset seems to be as documented and presumably as designed.<br>
<br>
Has anyone else found a way to address this? Is there a setting I am missing somewhere?<br>
<br>
My plan B is to whip up a service that sends a CiscoIPPhoneExecute object with a Play URI to the target phones - but that sounds like a lot of work, and potentially hard to support over time.<br>
<br>
