How To Conference Call on An Avaya Phone
Please note your Avaya phone needs to be in basic mode. If you don’t know what mode your phone is in, then you should check with your telecommunications provider or support staff to assist you.
You can have up to three parties on a conference call. Either yourself in the office and two external parties, or two individuals in the office with one external party.
Locate the conference call button on your phone. Some phones have the conference logo below the button, and other phones have a button with an image of three handsets, like in our video example below.
When you’re on the phone (you’ve either received the call or made the call), to add another individual:
- Press the conference call button.
- Dial the extension of the internal individual you wish to add to the call or dial the phone number of the external individual you wish to add to the call.
- Wait for them to pick up the receiver.
- Press the conference call button again.
- All parties will be placed into the conference call.
