able to add more than two people to your call; ask your system administrator for the maximum number.
Just as with other calls, you can hold and resume conference calls. In addition, you’ll have the option to
split a conference callend the conference and place the people you were talking with on hold.

feature allows you to manage each person in the conference call so that you can mute, hold, and
remove each person. For more information, see Managing Conference Call Participants.
