9. 7. 3 Queue with announcement (Number in Queue)
A's call lands at a busy call destination B. The caller will first obtain the greeting of the
announcement service, if so configured. He will then obtain a greeting announcement,
e.g. asking for a little patience as the call destination is busy. Depending on the config-
uration the caller might now obtain music for example and be notified from time to time
of his current position in the queue. It is also possible to offer the caller alternatives for
handling his call at periodic intervals, which can be selected using the digit keys. If the
call is answered, the announcements cease and the call parties are connected.
