Source notes citing this source

• The default Call on Webex option allows 1-on-1 calling only, with no additional participant added to the call, and applies to devices in both shared mode and personal mode. in context
• For hybrid calling with Unified CM, administrators associate a phone number with a room device or a user's device by using the Device Connector tool. in context
• Personal mode ties a Board, Desk, or Room device assigned to a user to that specific user, in the way a laptop or phone is assigned to one person. in context
• The sources describe three distinct ways a Desk or Room device reaches PSTN: cloud registration with Webex Calling, cloud registration with Hybrid Calling through Unified CM, or on-premises registration to Unified CM (optionally Edge-linked), and only the first keeps both registration and call control in the cloud. inferred in context
• Cisco's deployment guide states that for on-premises devices Unified CM is currently the most used calling option, and an admin can configure a room or desk device to call through Unified CM. in context
• A user can obtain an activation code from Webex User Hub or the Webex App to set up a personal-mode device without being an administrator. in context
• Per the deployment guide, Webex Calling gives Board, Desk, and Room devices a line and a phone number plus call hold, call transfer, conference/add a participant, voicemail and user directory. in context
• Cisco's deployment guide for Board, Desk, and Room Series devices describes Webex Calling as the recommended calling solution for these devices. in context
