Work Remotely
Overview
The Work Remotely allows employees to work from home as if they were in their own office. A high-speed internet connection is required.
The feature will allow an employee to have a Voice over IP phone at home programmed with a USF telephone number and dial tone, utilizing the same features and functionality that are found at the USF campuses. There are two scenarios that are ready for immediate deployment: If an employee only has a standard (non-IP) phone on their desk but also wants to work from home, they will need to contact their Voice and Data Communication Specialist for more details. A site survey by an IT Technician will be required to find out what it will take to change your standard office phone to an IP phone. With this scenario, IT will provide the customer with a duplicate of their existing VoIP phone (a router and patch cord can be supplied if needed) and simple instructions on how to install and activate the phone.
