What Is Group Intercom Paging?

 

Group intercom paging is a telephone feature that allows for real-time announcements to a particular team, department, or building area. Pages are broadcast via the speaker on an employee's desk phone. 

Group intercom paging also typically includes the functionality to create custom lists of paging groups for easy access. Group intercoms often have security features to ensure that only specific employees can make large announcements. Group intercoms are often used when overhead paging systems are not available.
