Overview
The College has an Emergency Hotline configured in our phone system. This hotline consists of the following:
- An external, direct-inward-dial number: 610-606-4682
- 3 internal extensions that his number rings to: 4951, 4952, 4953
- The hotline can be utilized with 1, 2, or all 3 phones plugged in.
- If no phones are connected, the active message is played and then disconnects the caller.
- If 1 phone is plugged in, that will get all calls. When a 2nd and 3rd and plugged in, calls will route appropriately.
- If someone calls when all lines are busy, they will be put on hold (and hear music) until someone becomes available. They do not hear the active message.
- There is no voicemail for the hotline.
- Any existing Voice-Over-IP (Mitel/Astra 6768/6739 phones) can be used for the hotline.
- The hotline phones can be anywhere on campus that has an active network connection and do not need to be in the same room.
Log in to the Hotline
- On your existing phone, press the Log Off soft key
- Next, press the Log in soft key
- Input the extension number assigned to you (4951, 4952, or 4953)
