How to Transfer a Call and Set up Conference Calls
A transfer connects two parties as you exit the conversation, leaving the two other parties connected.
Your handset can perform three types of transfers:
•
Blind A blind transfer exits the call before the two other parties are connected, while the second
party is ringing.
•
Consultative A consultative transfer enables you speak to the party the call is being transferred
to before completing the transfer.
•
Attended An attended transfer connects all three parties, as in a conference call, before you
hang up.
Performing a Blind Transfer
While in an active call, or with the call on hold:
1 Open the Features shortcut menu and select Blind Transfer .
You will hear a dial tone and the Dialer will open.
2 Place the call to the target party. (See How to Use the Dialer .)
