Handle Multiple Calls
As long as you have multiple line keys, your Polycom VVX series phone is able to handle one active call and multiple held calls at once. The number of line keys your phone has determines how many calls can be hosted on your phone at once.
When you have multiple calls on your Polycom phone, you can do the following actions:
- Swap calls whenever necessary.
- Merge calls into a conference call.
- End one call at a time.
Swap Between Calls
While you are handling multiple calls at once, you can easily switch between them using your line keys or the Calls screen.
To do so, do one of the following:
- Press the Line Key button that is holding the call.
- On the Calls screen, highlight a call using the up and down directional buttons and press the Resume soft key.
When you swap calls, the caller you were originally speaking to will be placed on hold automatically.
Merge Calls
While you have multiple calls active and held on your phone, you can merge the calls together to form a conference call. To merge your calls together, press the Join soft key on the Calls screen.
End One Call
On the Calls screen, you can end one of the calls you are handling at any time.
