Conference Calls

When you are signed into Polycom with Skype for Business on your VVX business media phone, you can
initiate audio conference calls with your Skype for Business contacts from your phone. You can also manage
conference participants, enable announcements, and lock a conference.
You can manage a maximum of eight Skype for Business conference calls on VVX 201 phones and 24
Skype for Business conference calls at a time on VVX 300 series, 400 series, 500 series, and 600 series

● Use the handset or a headset if you're in an open environment.
● Mute your microphone when you are not speaking, especially in noisy environments.
● Avoid tapping or rustling papers near the microphone.
