Shared Lines

Shared lines allow you to use one phone number for multiple phones.
You might have a shared line if you have multiple phones and want one phone number, share call-handling
tasks with co-workers, or handle calls on behalf of a manager.
You or your co-worker can join a call on the shared line using the Barge feature. Barge converts the call into
a conference. To barge, press the red session button for the remote in-use call on the shared line.
For example, if you share a line with a co-worker,
• When a call comes in on the shared line:
• When your co-worker has a call on the shared line:
• If you answer the call:
• If you put the call on hold:
OL-25524-01

to return to the Preferences screen.
