CHAPTER 4. USING THE FEATURES
Trunk-to-Trunk Transfer
This feature allows the attendant to originate two outgoing trunk calls and connect them
together. For example, two company employees may be on business trips in different cities
and need to talk to each other; the attendant may be asked to make this connection.
The Attendant Lockout feature, if available, will not be active when a trunk-to-trunk call is
placed. Also, when the Trunk-to-Trunk Transfer feature is used for two outgoing trunks, you
must hold the call on the console. The system will not allow you to release from such a call.
If you press the Forced Release button, the call is disconnected.
The Automatic Route Selection feature, if available, can be used with the Trunk-to-Trunk
Transfer feature.
Extending an incoming trunk call to an outgoing trunk is described in “Extending Calls” in
Chapter 3.
