7.9 Initiating a Multi-Party Skype for Business Remote
Conference
A multi-party call conference based on the Skype for Business server (remote conference) can be
initiated from the phone.
Note: This section describes conferencing when Better Together over Ethernet (BToE) is not
installed. See Section 7.2.4 for information about conferencing when BToE is installed.
In versions preceding 3.0, supported conference capability was locally based (phone based). As
of version 3.0, the phone of the conference initiator uses CCCP (Centralized Conference Control
Protocol) to establish the conference. The feature is integrated with Microsoft Exchange so in an
email invitation to join a Skype for Business meeting, you can click a Join link.
To initiate a conference:
1. In the phone's idle screen, press the Meet Now softkey; the CONFERENCE screen opens
indicating No Participants.
3. Press the Add softkey; the ADD PARTICIPANT screen opens.
4. Enter the participant's phone number. Either:
• Press the URL softkey, use the alphanumerical selection displayed to enter the
participant's URL (see Section 3.4 for more information), and then press the Dial
softkey.
• Press the softkey; the contacts added to 'Favorites' in the Skype for Business
client are displayed by default. If the contact you are searching for is not in your
'Favorites', press the softkey and navigate in the Corporate Directory, Personal
Directory, Outlook Contacts or Others to find them (see Sections 5.14 and 5.15 for more
information). After finding them, select and then press the Dial softkey.
