Phone and Voicemail

The Networks and Telecommunications team is responsible for the design, installation, testing, activation, configuration, and maintenance of the telecommunication systems and data networks on the West Lafayette campus, including wired and wireless infrastructure and connectivity between campus and the general Internet. We offer departments a basic package of voice and data services, and provides premium options by request. 

Covid-19 information
  • If you have a voicemail box then consider updating your greeting to include class information or other contact information at Cisco Unity Connection Web Inbox.

  • If you have been assigned a Purdue University VoIP phone then you can add your cellphone as an alternative device by visiting the Cisco Self-Care Portal and registering an alternative device. If you are off-campus then you will need to connect your VPN first.
