Affordable, everyday desktop and wireless (DECT) phones

The Cisco IP Phone 6800 Series multiplatform phones are designed for affordability. They deliver reliable, business-grade audio, with Gigabit Ethernet integration and low power usage.

Ideal for customers with moderate to active VoIP needs, the 6800 Series phones are supported on Cisco-approved third-party unified communications as a service (UCaaS) providers.

The line buttons on each model are fully programmable. You can set up line buttons to support either SIP registrations, or call features, such as speed dialing. You can also boost productivity by handling multiple calls for each SIP registration, using the multiple-calls-per-line appearance feature. Tricolor LEDs on the line buttons support the calling features and make the phone simple to use.

Fixed function buttons on the 6800 series phones give you one-touch access to service, messaging, directory, hold/resume, transfer, and conference features. A full-duplex speakerphone lets you set up clear multiparty conferences for flexible, productive collaboration. The 6800 series provides exceptional noise isolation when used with a Cisco 500 Series Headset.
