Handling Calls
5. Call Party 3 for Conference 2.
6. When Party 3 answers, press the Conf Key to join Parties 1 (which is yourself), Party 2, and
Party 3 on Conference 2.
You now have two active conferences on two different lines.
If any party in a conference hangs up (including the party that began the conference), all other
parties in the conference are still connected.
Joining Additional Parties to Active Conferences
In centralized conferencing, you can join multiple incoming or outgoing calls to active
conferences. Before following this procedure, at least one active conference must exist on your
phone.
1. As Party 1, pickup the handset or press the speakerphone key.
A line opens up.
2. Call Party 2 by dialing their number (or answer an incoming call of a Party).
3. Wait for Party 2 to answer. When Party 2 answers, you can consult with them before adding
them to the conference.
4. Press the Conf Key.
5. Press the Line Key that has the active conference. (For example, Line 1 and Line 2 both
have active conferences. Pressing Line 1 joins Party 1 and Party 2 to the conference on Line
1. Pressing Line 2 joins Party 1 and Party 2 to the conference on Line 2.)
6. Press the Conf Key again to join the Parties to the active conference.
Ending a Conference and Transferring Remaining Parties
The 6757i allows a Host to drop from a 3-way conference and let the other two parties remain
connected by pressing a Transfer key.
If you are the Host of a conference and want to leave that conference:
• While in a 3-way conference press the Transfer key on the phone.
Your phone leaves the 3-way conference but the remaining parties are still connected to the
conference.
Note: When you are connected to multiple conference calls, and you put a
conference on hold, the conference may be on hold for a limited period of time
before it is disconnected. Contact your System Administrator for more information.
Note: The Caller ID of the dropped Host still displays on the remaining parties’ phones.
