Making Conference Calls
Conference calling allows three or more parties to participate simultaneously in a call. Your
Cisco IP Phone supports several types of conference calls depending on your configuration. Check with your system administrator to determine what is enabled on your phone. The following conference softkeys might be available on your phone:
• Confrn—Use to establish conferences by calling
each participant individually. Conferencing is available on most phones.
• Join—Use to establish a conference among
several current calls on a single line.
• cBarge—Use to begin a conference call on a
shared line. This optional feature is available only for shared lines.
• Meet-Me—Use to host a conference requiring
that participants call an established number at a specific time. Your system administrator must configure this special feature for you. See “Starting or Joining a Meet-Me Conference Call” section on page 40 for more information.

Advanced Call Handling
Advanced call-handling tasks require access to special features. Your system administrator might configure these features for your phone depending on your call-handling needs and work environment.
Parking and Retrieving Parked Calls
You can “park” a call when you want to store the call so that you or someone else can retrieve it from another phone in the Cisco CallManager system (for example, a phone at a co-worker’s desk or in a conference room). Call Park is a feature that your system administrator must enable for you.
If you want to... Then...
Store an active call by using Call Park
During a call, press to switch to
Park and press it. The system
stores the call.
The phone screen displays the special call park number at which the call is stored. Make a note of the call park number.
Tip
You have a limited amount of time to retrieve the parked call before it reverts to ringing at its original destination. See your system administrator for this time limit.
Picking Up a Redirected Call on Your
Phone
Your system administrator might enable Call PickUp for your phone if you share call-handling with co-workers. Call PickUp allows you to answer a call that is ringing on a co-worker’s phone by redirecting the call to your phone. You can use Call PickUp features to handle calls for co-workers who are in your call pickup group (PickUp) or who are in another pickup group (GPickUp).
Retrieve a parked call
Enter the call park number from any phone in the
Cisco CallManager system to connect to the call.
Tips
• Obtain the call group pickup code from your system administrator.
• When you press PickUp or GPickUp, you connect to the call that has been ringing for the longest time.
Using a Shared Line
Your system administrator might give you a “shared” line. Shared-line features do not apply to standard, unshared lines. Typically, a shared line has two main uses:
• One person applies a shared line to multiple phones—For example, your shared line, 23456, applies to your wireless IP phone and to your
If you want to... Then...
Answer a call that is ringing on another extension within your call pickup group
Press to switch to PickUp; then press PickUp and the call will ring on your phone. Press Answer to connect to the call.
Answer a call that is ringing on an extension outside of your group
Press to switch to GPickUp; then press GPickUp and dial the call group pickup code. The call will ring on your phone. Press
office desktop phone. An incoming call to 23456 rings on your desk and on your wireless IP phone, and you can use either phone to answer the call.
• Multiple people share a line—For example, you are a manager who shares a line and extension number with your assistant. An incoming call to the extension rings on both of the phones. If you have a shared line, you might see the “in-use-remote” message on your phone screen indicating that a co-worker is currently using the shared line. You can place and receive calls as usual on a shared line, even when the remote-in-use message displays.
Maximum Supported Calls on a Shared Line
The maximum number of calls that a shared line supports can vary by phone model. For example, your Cisco Wireless IP Phone 7920 supports a maximum of two calls on a shared line while your co-worker’s Cisco IP Phone 7960 can support four calls on the same line. If there are two calls on the line, the
NewCall softkey is unavailable to you but is available
Sharing Call Information and Barging
Your phone screen displays information about calls that your co-worker places and receives on the shared line. This information might include caller ID and call duration. Also, when you are using a shared line, information about your call is displayed on the co-worker’s phone screen.
When call information is visible on the phone screen, you and co-workers can add yourselves to calls on the shared line by using the barging features.
Barge—Allows you to join a shared-line call with an
IP phone model that has the built-in bridge enabled. You cannot use Barge to enter a shared-line call with another Cisco Wireless IP Phone 7920.
cBarge—Allows you to join a shared-line call with any
IP phone model and convert the call to a conference.
Privacy—If you do not want co-workers who share
your line to see information about your calls, enable the Privacy feature. Also Privacy prevents co-workers from barging your calls. See the “Preventing Others from Viewing or Joining a Shared-Line Call” section on page 49.
If you want to... Then...
See if a co-worker has an active call on the shared line
Look at the phone screen to see if “In Use Remote” appears on the status line and the calling party ID appears next to the line number.
Add yourself to call on a shared line by using Barge
Select an “in-use-remote” call on your screen and press Barge. The shared-line user hears a tone and “To Barge” displays on the screen. You can only join a call that a Cisco IP Phone (with Barge enabled) initiates.
Add yourself to a call on a shared line by using cBarge
Select an “in-use-remote” call on your screen and press cBarge. Other parties hear a tone and brief audio interruption, and call information changes on the phone screen.
cBarge converts the call into a conference so you can add new participants to the conference call. See the “Making Conference Calls” section on page 37 for more information.
When you hang up, the call remains as a conference call provided at least three participants stay on the line.
Move a shared-line call to another phone with the shared line
Press Hold. On another phone with the shared line, press
Resume.
Tips
• Barge and cBarge softkeys are not available for
private calls.
• You will be disconnected from a call that you have joined using Barge if the call is put on hold, transferred, or turned into a conference call.
Preventing Others from Viewing or Joining a
Shared-Line Call
If you have a shared line, you can enable the Privacy feature to prevent others who share this line from viewing or joining your calls on this line.
Tips
• If you have Privacy enabled on a shared line and make a call, “ in use remote” does not display on other phones that share the line; there is no indication when the line is in use.
If you want to... Then...
Prevent others from viewing or joining your shared-line calls
Press Private. When Privacy is enabled, the privacy-on icon
displays next to your phone number on the phone screen.
Allow others to view or join your calls on a shared line
Press Private. When Privacy is disabled, the privacy-off icon
displays next to your phone number on the phone screen.
• If all other phones that share the same line have Privacy enabled, you can still make new calls using the shared line. However, you cannot join any in-progress calls using the shared line.
Tracing Suspicious Calls
If you are receiving suspicious or malicious calls, your system administrator can add the Malicious Call Identification (MCID) feature to your phone. This feature enables you to identify an active call as suspicious, which initiates a series of automated tracking and notification messages.
Prioritizing Critical Calls
In some specialized environments, such as military or government offices, you might need to make and receive urgent or critical calls. These critical calls might require higher priority handling, such as being able to bypass other calls. If you require specialized
If you want to... Then...
Identify a suspicious call
Press MCID. If the MCID request is successful, you will hear a special tone and see the message, “MCID successful” on your phone. The call remains active until you end the call.
call-handling capability, your system administrator can add Multilevel Precedence and Preemption (MLPP) to your phone.
Keep these terms in mind:
• Precedence indicates the priority associated with
a call.
• Preemption is the process of ending an existing,
lower priority call while accepting a higher priority call that is sent to your phone.
If you want to... Then...
Choose a priority (precedence) level for an outgoing call
Contact your system administrator for a list of corresponding precedence numbers for calls (ranging from low to highest).
Make a priority (precedence) call
Enter the MLPP access number (which is provided by your system administrator) followed by the phone number.
Receive a priority (precedence) call
Hear the special call waiting tone and note the special icon displayed for the incoming call.
Tips
• When you make or receive an MLPP-enabled call, you will hear special ring tones and call waiting tones that differ from the standard tones.
• If you enter an invalid MLPP access number, a verbal announcement will alert you of the error.
View the priority level of a call
Higher priority calls display at the top of your call list. These icons indicate the priority:
(no icon) Normal call Priority call Medium priority (immediate) call High priority (flash) call Highest priority (flash override) call
Accept a higher-priority call
When you hear the special call waiting tone, end the active call and answer the higher-priority call.
Receive a preemption call
While on an active call, you hear a continuous tone for about 10 seconds. The preemption call then overrides the active call.
