Call Park
You can use your phone to park (temporarily store) a call. You can then retrieve the call from another phone
(such as a phone at a coworker's desk or in a conference room).
There are two ways you can park a call: call park and directed call park. You'll only have one type of call
park available on your phone.
If the call remains parked for too long, you receive an alert tone. You can answer the call or retrieve it from
another phone. If you do not answer the call within a certain length of time, it is routed to another destination
(such as voicemail), as set by your administrator.
Place a Call on Hold with Call Park
You can park an active call that you answered on your phone and then use another phone in the call control
system to retrieve the call.
You can park only one call at the call park number.
Before You Begin
Your call must be active.
