Conference Calls with Multiple Participants

Add Additional Participants to Existing Call

Assume that you already are in
a call. This call may have been
initiated by you or by someone
else (someone called you).
Place the call, in the usual
way. You may alter the Call
settings of that call before
you place it—see side bar
for more.
This is an optional feature that may, or may not, be installed on your system.
Tap Add.
This new call will
now be added
to the existing,
thus creating a
conference. You
may cancel this call
without terminating
the first call you
were in.
Locate whom to call, in
the usual way.
You have now established a
conference.
You may repeat this procedure
to the extent permitted by your
video infrastructure.

About Video Conferences

Your video system may be equipped
with the capability to initiate a video
conference with several participants.
The maximum number of participants
supported by your video system will
depend on system configuration and
the video infrastructure. If in doubt,
contact your video support team.
If you want to initiate a video
conference, you must call each
participant one by one.
If you are the one who initiated
the conference you will be able to
terminate the entire conference. The
other participants, however, may
only disconnect themselves from the
conference.
Call settings. Those you call may
have video systems with different
bandwidths. You are not constrained
to set all participants to a bandwidth
that all systems support. The Call
rate may be set individually for all
participants in order to provide
everyone with the best quality
available for their system. See
"Change Call Rate" on page 22.
