Timed call disconnection for outgoing trunk calls
Issue 4 May 2003 221555-233-767
Timed call disconnection for
outgoing trunk calls
This feature provides the capability to automatically disconnect an outgoing trunk
call after an administrable amount of time. Warning tones are applied to all parties
on the call prior to the disconnection.
The amount of time that can elapse before the trunk is dropped can be specified,
and can vary between 2-999 minutes. If the timer field is blank, which is the
default value, then the feature is disabled and the trunk will not be automatically
disconnected.
Timed call disconnection applies to all outgoing trunk calls initiated by a party
belonging to a specified Class of Restriction (COR).
Prior to disconnecting the trunk, warning tones are applied to all parties on the
call. The first warning tone occurs when one minute is remaining on the call. The
second warning tone occurs when 30 seconds are remaining on the call.
Transfer
Allows telephone users to transfer trunk or internal calls to other telephones
within the system without attendant assistance. This feature provides a convenient
way to connect a party with someone better qualified to handle the call.
Abort transfer
Allows a user to abort a transfer attempt by pressing a non-idle line appearance.
The call being transferred would be taken off a transfer-type hold and be put on a
traditional hold. The transfer will also be aborted when you hang up (going
on-hook), unless transfer upon hang-up is activated on the switch. This is an
optional feature at the system level.
Transfer — outgoing trunk to outgoing trunk
Allows a user or attendant to initiate two or more outgoing trunk calls and then
transfer the trunks together. The transfer operation removes the original user from
the connection and conferences the outgoing trunks. Alternatively, the controlling
party can establish a conference call with the outgoing trunks and then drop out of
the conference, leaving only the outgoing trunks on the conference. This is an
optional enhancement to trunk-to-trunk transfer and requires careful
administration and use. DCS trunk turnaround may be a safer alternative to this
feature.
