11. call MeRging and Switching
11.1 oveRview — what iS PoSSiBle?
you can choose to create a conference call using two or three of the phones to which the base is connected
— that is, a conference call between you and callers on your deskphone, softphone and mobile phone. this is
termed call merging. here, audio from the headset’s microphone is routed to all the other phones in the confer-
ence and audio from any one phone is routed to the headset’s speaker and to the other phones.
also, a merged call (or any active call for that matter) can be put on audio-hold at any time. this means that
audio from that phone is no longer routed to the headset; the audio link between the phone and the headset is
broken. the call is unmerged. you can later choose to re-establish the audio link; the call is then merged again
and joins the currently active call(s).
you can switch your headset’s audio between a call that is on audio-hold and one that is active (in the foreground
on the Jabra base touchscreen) — for example between a held call on your deskphone and a current call on your
mobile phone. this is termed call switching.

Note: Putting an active call on audio-hold is nOt the same as putting a call on hold in the usual
(telephony) sense of the term. you put a call on audio-hold on the Jabra base, breaking the audio link
between the phone that has the call and the headset. the call’s audio is disconnected internally in the
Jabra base.
