Using the Basic Features of Your
Phone
Your SoundStation IP 6000 conference phone is designed to be used like a
regular conference phone on a public switched telephone network (PSTN).
You can place calls, transfer a call to someone else, conduct a multi-party
conference call, or perform other basic and more advanced functions.
At any time, only one active call may be in progress on your phone. The active
call is the one that has audio associated with it. In addition to an active call,
your phone can handle up to seven other calls, including conference calls, on
hold. Your phone can handle a total of eight calls at one time.
