DISA

Direct Inward System Access (DISA) is programmed on an trunk-by-trunk basis to allow external callers to access the following system resources from a remote DTMF telephone:

  • user extensions
  • voicemail extensions
  • extension UCD groups
  • outgoing exchange lines (individual lines, trunk routes and LCR)
  • system abbreviated numbers

External callers accessing a DISA line can dial extension numbers and UCD groups without having to enter any security code. To access an exchange line and place an outgoing call, the DISA caller must have an "allowed" COS and enter a security code. Idle DISA lines are always available to internal users for placing an outgoing exchange call. Individual exchange lines can be assigned DISA access in one of four time-bands (Never, Day, Night or Always) and can have a talk-time limit imposed.

Benefits DISA allows authorised external callers access to system resources at defined times as if they were an internal user. The primary use is to allow access to company exchange lines to place business-related calls to overseas business partners or customers during out-of-office periods. The company (rather than the individual) is billed for the international call.
