FEATURES AND SERVICES
The user active on a BA button can use many features with the bridged call; operation is no
different from calls on other buttons. For example, Hold, Conference, and Transfer can be
used from a BA button just as they would be used from a SA button. Calling restrictions
applied to calls made on bridged appearances are those of the bridging station, not those of
the principal station.
System 25 has the following bridging capacities and limitations:
● The number of principal stations is limited only by the number of multiline sets on the
system.
● The number of SA buttons a principal station can have is limited only by the number
of available buttons on the terminal.
● Each SA button on a principal station can have a bridged call appearance on up to
16 multiline voice terminals.
● The number of principals for which a station has bridged call appearances is limited
only by the number of available programmable buttons.
● The maximum number of parties active on a bridged call is five (no more than two of
these may be outside parties).
Incoming calls ring the principal station and its bridging stations according to ring options
specified by the System Administrator.
The principal station can be administered to send, or
not send, ringing to the bridging station;
both stations can be administered to receive
immediate ring, delayed ring, or no ring for incoming calls.
Table 2-F summarizes the effect
of different settings for these ring options.

* When Send All Calls is enabled at the principal station, immediate

As with standard System 25 operation, off-hook stations receive abbreviated alerting instead
of repeated ringing. In addition, ring options have no effect on visual alerting via status LEDs
on SA or BA buttons.
When an inside or outside call comes into a SA button of an idle principal station, it and each
bridging station receive ringing, according to options set by the System Administrator, and
visual alerting with a flashing status LED.
If one of the users picks up the call, the green
