# URZ: Europanotruf 112

This source documents the standardization of the European emergency number (112) within the internal telephony infrastructure of the Universität Greifswald.

## Key Information
- **Direct Dialing**: The emergency number **112** can now be dialed directly from internal university phones to alert fire and medical services.
- **Prefix Removal**: The previously required external line prefix (**Amtsvorwahl**) "0" is no longer necessary for emergency calls.
- **Redundancy**: Dialing `0-112` remains functional as an alternative.
- **Legal Warning**: Misuse of the emergency number is a criminal offense under **§145(1) StGB** (German Criminal Code), which explicitly applies to the internal extension 112.

## Support
For general Campus-IT issues, the [[universitatsrechenzentrum-urz]] provides support via:
- The [[groupware]] ticket system.
- The URZ hotline at extension **1420**.
