Question

Can I make emergency calls using a Hot Desk phone?

Applies To

8x8 Hot Desk service

Answer

Yes. In North America, dial 911 just as you would on any other phone, whether or not you are logged in as a Hot Desk guest user. The physical location of the Hot Desk phone is registered as the emergency address of the call.

Apart from emergency calls, a Hot Desk host does not allow you to make or receive any calls when you are not logged in as a guest.
