Conference Calls, Setting Up a Conference | AT&T System 25 specification

Conference Calls

❑

You can set up a conference that includes a combination of System 25 extensions as well as outside calls. You may have up to five conferees; however, no more than two may be on outside lines. To set up a conference, start with one call; then contact the new parties one at a time and add them to the original loop.

You can drop parties before they are placed in a conference. However, once in a conference, you cannot selectively drop any party from the conference because they are all on the same loop. If you want someone to withdraw from the conference, ask that person to hang up.
