Call Transfer

You can transfer calls from your Conference Phone to another
phone in your office or to any other phone number outside your
office. For example, if you receive a call from a coworker in the
office, you can transfer that call to another coworker in the office or
on his cellular phone outside the office.
A call can be transferred in one of three ways:
•
Consultative transfer—You have the option of either talking to
the party to whom you are transferring the call, or you can
choose not to talk to the party, and complete the transfer when
you hear the party's ring-back sound.
•
Blind transfer—the call is automatically transferred after you dial
the number of the party to whom you want to transfer the call.
You do not have the option of talking to the party.
•
Attended transfer—the parties are automatically connected to
each other after you exit a conference.
