You can initiate and manage up to 12 audio conference calls on a Poly Trio system and place video
conference calls and view video streams for video-enabled participants.
Initiating Conference Calls
You can initiate conference calls with up to four contacts. As the host, you can hold, resume, or split a
conference call.
While the system can manage up to 12 conference calls, you can have only one active conference call at
a time. You can keep other conference calls on hold.
If your system administrator enables the conference management feature on your phone, you can
manage each participant in the call. With the conference management feature, you can mute, hold, and
remove individual participants in a conference call.
Initiate a Conference Call
You can initiate a conference by adding a contact during an active call. This merges the contacts into a
conference call.
Procedure
1. Call a contact.
2. After the contact answers, select Add .
On the Trio 8300 systems, press the Add softkey.
3. Enter another contact's number or select a contact from Contacts or Recent Calls.
The system adds the contact to the conference call after the contact answers.
Merge Calls into a Conference Call
You can merge an active call and a held call to initiate a conference call.
Procedure
