Linksys 7920 IP Phone User Manual


 
40 78-14564-03
One person applies a shared line to multiple
phones—For example, your shared line, 23456,
applies to your wireless IP phone and to your
office desktop phone. An incoming call to 23456
rings on your desk and on your wireless IP phone,
and you can use either phone to answer the call.
Multiple people share a line—For example, you
are a manager who shares a line and extension
number with your assistant. An incoming call to
the extension rings on both of the phones.

shared line
Select an in-use-remotely call on
your screen and press Barge. The
shared-line user hears a tone and
“To Barge” displays on the screen.
You will be disconnected from a
barged call if the shared-line call
is put on hold, transferred, or
conferenced. You can only join a
call that a desktop phone (with
Barge enabled) initiates.
Move a call to
another shared line
Place the shared-line call on hold.
Press Resume on another phone
with the shared line.
