Conference Calls
Topics:
• Audio Conference Calls
When you initiate a conference call, you can manage conference participants, join calls into a conference,
or split your conference into individual calls.
Audio Conference Calls
Start a conference call with two contacts on hold. You can also split, hold, or resume conference calls.
VVX 101 and 201 phones manage a maximum of four active or held conference calls at a time. All other
VVX manage a maximum of 12 conference calls. The phone supports one active conference call at a time
with additional 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.
Note: If your phone registers with Alcatel-Lucent CTS, you have different options for initiating and
managing conference calls.
