Call Transfer Types

  • Blind Transfer — Transfer a call directly to another party without consulting. Caller ID of the caller is sent to the transferred party.
  • Semi-attended Transfer — Transfer a call immediatly after hearing the ringback tone. The semi-attended transfer is applicable to that when users do not want to consult with the third party after hearing the ringback tone, and the third party has not answered the call, the users can cancel the transfer or implement the transfer.
  • Attended Transfer (Consultative Transfer) — Transfer a call with prior consulting. Extension number of the transferer is sent to the transferred party, until call is accepted, then caller ID of caller will appear.

NOTE: When performing an attended transfer, the transferring party must remain on the line until the receiving party answers and is informed of the caller’s identity. Failure to do so may result in the call being mistaken for an internal extension call, leading to an inappropriate greeting.
