Mute
What’s this?
This feature helps the extension user to disconnect the speech transmission path in the middle of a conversation.
The extension user can still listen to the opposite party because the receiving path remains connected. Mute is
useful when you want to consult someone in the middle of a conversation, but do not want the opposite party to
listen to your discussion. You can Mute a call before making a call or during speech.
How it works
• A is in speech with B.
• A wants to consult to C in the room, but does not want B to hear their conversation.
• A presses the Mute Key.
• The transmit speech path from A to B is disconnected. The receive path remains connected.
• So, A will be able to hear B, but B will not be able to hear the conversation between A and C.
• When A has finished consulting C, to resume speech with B, A presses the Mute key again.
• The transmit speech path from A to B is restored. A and B are in speech again.
