What Is A Phone Extension?
A phone extension is a short internal number assigned to specific employees or departments within a business phone system. Instead of dialing a full phone number, callers can use extensions to connect directly to the right person or department, improving communication efficiency. Extensions are often part of the menu of an intelligent virtual response phone system.
