Bridged Call

The Bridged Call feature lets you join a call if one of the other parties’
extensions also appears on your telephone (a multiple line
appearance).
Although the same extension may appear on several telephones, only
one of the parties with the same multiple line appearance can use the
Bridged Call feature to join a call. Once a call has been bridged,
another party with the same multiple line appearance cannot then
bridge into the call. Bridging also cannot take place if either of the
other original two parties are on hold or have turned on the Privacy
feature.
During a call that has been bridged, none of the parties can use their
key pads to enter feature access codes.
