Call Coverage
Calls redirected to Call Coverage maintain a temporary bridged appearance
on the called telephone if a call appearance is available to handle the call.
The called party can bridge onto the call at any time. The system can be
administered to allow a temporary bridged appearance of the call to either
remain at or be removed from the covering telephone after the principal
bridges onto the call. If two parties are bridged together on an active call
with a third party, and the bridging tone is administered to yes, all three
parties hear the bridging tone.
