64CHAPTER 7: STANDARD FEATURES

Announced Before you complete a transfer, you can announce to the recipient that (Screened) Transfer you are transferring a call. The recipient can then decide whether to take

the call. To announce a transfer:

1While on a call, press the Transfer button. The system places the caller on hold and selects a new line.

2Dial the extension number to which you want to transfer the call.

3When the recipient answers, announce the call.

If the recipient wants to take the call, press Transfer again to complete the transfer, and hang up the handset.

If you are on an NBX Business Telephone or a 3101 or 3101SP Basic Telephone and the recipient does not want to take the call, retrieve it by pressing the Access button on which the call originated.

If you are on an NBX 2101 Basic Telephone, and the recipient does not want to take the call, press and release the hook switch to disconnect the attempted transfer, and then retrieve the original call by pressing Call Toggle.

Your administrator can disable Announced Transfers (by enabling the One Button Transfer feature) for the entire NBX system. When that setting is enabled, every time that you press the Transfer button, the current call is transferred as soon as you dial the extension — without waiting for you to announce the call.

Blind Transfer In a blind transfer, you transfer the call without notifying the recipient:

1While on a call, press the Transfer button. The system places the caller on hold and selects a new line.

2Dial the number to which you want to transfer the call.

3As soon as you hear a full ring, press the Transfer button and hang up. (If you press the Transfer button too soon after you dial the number, the transfer may not occur.)

Direct Mail Transfer You can transfer a call directly into another user’s voice mailbox. The call does not ring on that user’s telephone.

Calls transferred to a user’s mailbox by means of Direct Mail Transfer are always directed into that user’s voice mailbox, even if the recipient has specified a different call coverage point.
