Using Barge to Add Yourself to a Shared-Line Call

You can use barge features (cBarge or Barge) to add yourself to calls on your shared line. (Calls must be non-private calls. See Understanding Shared Lines, page 38.)

Understanding Barge Features

cBarge and Barge

Depending on how your phone is configured, you can add yourself to a call on a shared line using either cBarge or Barge:

•cBarge converts the call into a standard conference, allowing you to add new participants. (See Making Conference Calls, page 28 for information about standard conferences.)

•Barge allows you to add yourself to the call but does not convert the call into a conference or allow you to add new participants.

Single-button and Multi-touch Barge

Your system administrator determines whether the barge feature on your phone (cBarge or Barge) operates as a single-button or multi-touch feature.

•Single button barge allows you to press a line button to barge a call (SCCP phones only).

•Multi-touch barge allows you to view call information before barging.
