Conferencing Calls
The 6865i IP phone has a dedicated Conference key. You can use this hard key to create conference calls.
The 6865i IP phone offers two methods of conferencing:
• Local conferencing (default method).
• Centralized conferencing (for Sylantro and BroadSoft call managers - Administrator must enable this method).
Local Conferencing
The 6865i phone supports up to 3 parties (including yourself) in a conference call. This is called Local Conferencing and is
the default method of conferencing on the 6865i.
The following screen illustrates a connected local conference screen:
In a local conference call, you use the up and down arrow keys to scroll to a party on the list, the
4Drop key to drop a
selected party and the
3 Leave key to leave the conference.
Using Local Conferencing
Use the following procedure to create a conference call using local conferencing.
Note:
Your System Administrator can set your Conference key to speed dial a specific number. Contact your System Adminis-
trator for more information.

1. When you begin a conference, you are the first party in the conference (Party 1). Pickup the handset or press the
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.
