Understanding Lines vs. Calls

you. Your phone supports up to six lines. To see your phone lines, press

in the Line

View list.

 

 

•Calls—Each line can support multiple calls, typically up to four calls. Your phone can support up to 24 connected calls, but your system administrator might adjust this number according to your needs. Only one call can be active at any time; other calls are automatically placed on hold.
