Reconnecting Dropped Calls

If your call is dropped, initiate the meeting again by locating and touching the name of your meeting on the CTS Cisco Unified IP phone.

If your meeting is no longer listed on the CTS Cisco Unified IP phone, reconnect using one of the following methods:

1. Dial the Cisco TelePresence room phone number with which you wish to connect.

2. Touch SpdDial or touch the directory icon to dial from a directory.
