Creating Conference Calls

The 6735i and 6737i phones allow you to create multiple conferences with unlimited participants (depending on your
server limitations) when your System Administrator enables conferencing.
Your administrator can configure conferencing globally on all lines or on specific lines. Although, for the global setting to
work, you must configure the lines with the applicable phone number.
When you lift the handset on the phone, the Conf key displays on the bottom set of softkeys if configured. Use this key to
create conference calls.
