Yeah, this feature has various names, like "hot line" and "auto off-hook dial", etc. As a previous post aptly put it, if it has a dialplan then it probably can do a hotline. FTR I found this quickie blurb about the PAP2T which I'm assuming will work with any Cisco/Sipura ATA FXS ports:<br>

</div></div>Without looking into this, I'd say you're looking at a feature on the<br>
SIP phone. The servers don't know if the line was picked up or not.<br>
So, you need hardware or software that says, "Now that the phone was<br>
taken off the hook, call this number." Once you have that, you can<br>
solve the rest of the problem in your dialplan.<br>
