Chapter 6: Conference bridge

Introduction conference bridge

Your system provides you with a virtual conference room (bridge). All conference participants which have dialed into the bridge are connected to one another.

Depending on the structure of your system, up to 9 internal and external subscribers can dial into the conference bridge.

There are access PINs to secure dialing into the conference bridge, or the "Standard PIN" can also be used (during non-reserved times).

Reservations can only be made in a preset 15 minute pattern. There must be a gap of at least 15 minutes between two reservations.

A moderator is not required. But if so the moderator is able to mute participants and select one participant as single and only speaker.

Dialing into conference bridge

You can dial into the conference bridge from any internal or external telephone. The conference bridge must normally be reserved in advance for the duration of the conference.

You can use a non-reserved conference bridge at any time using the "Standard PIN" if this has been enabled by your system administrator.

1.Dial the phone number of the conference room from an internal or external telephone. Wait for a dial tone.

2.Enter your access PIN number.

All conference subscribers hear a brief alert tone. You are now part of the conference.

If you are alone in the conference bridge, you will hear on-hold music.

3.To leave the conference: Replace the handset.
