Handling Calls

Conferencing Calls

The 6865i IP phone has a dedicated Conference key. You can use this hard key to create conference calls.

Conference Key

The 6865i IP phone offers two methods of conferencing:

•Local conferencing (default method).

•Centralized conferencing (for Sylantro and BroadSoft call managers - Administrator must enable this method).

Local Conferencing

The 6865i 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 6865i.

Note:

Your System Administrator can set your Conference key to speed dial a specific number. Contact your System Adminis- trator for more information.

The following screen illustrates a connected local conference screen:

2. François Dupont

Leave Drop

In a local conference call, you use the up and down arrow keys to scroll to a party on the list, the 4Drop key to drop a selected party and the 3 Leave key to leave the conference.
