Conferencing Calls

The 53i IP phone offers two methods of conferencing:

Local conferencing (default method).

Centralized conferencing (for Sylantro and Broadsoft Servers) (Administrator must enable this method).

By default, the Conference key is Key 6 on your phone. A Conference key must be set up on your phone before you can set up conference calls. To assign a key as a Conference key, see "Conference Key" on page 70.

Conference State Screens

When you use the Conference key to initiate a conference call, the following screen displays.

In a conference call, the call timer moves to the left. You use the up and down arrow keys to scroll to a party on the list. You use the right arrow key to select the party to drop.

Local Conferencing

The 53i phone supports up to 3 parties (including yourself) in a conference call. This is called Local Conferencing and is the default method of conferencing on the 53i.

Note: Your System Administrator can set your Conference key to speeddial a specific number. Contact your System Administrator for more informa- tion.
