Drop

the switchhook. Can also be used with the Conference feature to disconnect the last
party added. Use whenever you are using the built-in speaker instead of the handset,
or whenever you are using the handset and want to continue using it for another action
after ending a call.

place another call, activate another feature, answer a waiting call, or leave your voice
terminal to do another task. Use when you have a call that you don't wish to drop, but
which you have to interrupt briefly to do something else.
