Create the internal numbers your team uses to make and receive calls.
| Field | What to enter |
|---|---|
| Extension | The internal number, e.g. 1001. Must be unique in your account. |
| SIP Password | Used by the phone to sign in. Use a long, random password — anyone with it can make calls on your account. |
| Display Name | The person's name, shown to colleagues on internal calls. |
| Caller ID Number | The number shown to people this extension calls outside the company. |
| Voicemail PIN | Used to listen to voicemail from the phone. |
| Department | Optional. Extensions in a department see only their own team. |

Create departments under PBX → Departments and assign extensions to them. People in a department only see their own team's extensions and activity, which keeps larger organisations tidy and private.
Your plan sets the maximum number of extensions and simultaneous calls. If you reach a limit, contact us to upgrade.
