Conduct a meeting or training session over the phone, in an office or conference room
A digital phone can conference up to six participants (including yourself) in the same phone call. A speaker phone must be used to broadcast a phone conversation, including a conference call with multiple participants. A conference bridge service can be requested to allow participants to call in from almost anywhere in the world to join a conference call (service charges may apply).
When planning a voice conference, keep in mind that phones located in public areas, including Campus Center conference rooms, only allow local dialing and not long distance. Using a departmental long distance authorization code is required to make non-local calls in public conference rooms.
To request a speaker phone or conference bridge service, complete the Voice Conference Request Form.
