9. audio-hold and call Switching

9.1 oveRview — what iS PoSSiBle?

an active call 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. you can later choose to re-establish

the audio link and resume the call.

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.

In the telephony sense of the term, you put an active call on hold in the phone system; here the audio link

remains open. this is a function of the telephone system.

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.

9.2 call Switching

you can switch calls as described in this section.
Consider the figures below:

Figure 68: You have a single active

call and one on audio-hold.

1. you have an

active call

on your desk

phone. your

sofphone has

its audio on

hold — that is,

has its audio

disconnected

to the headset.

this is shown in

the background

with a yellow

handset.

Figure 69: the active call and call on

hold are switched.

2. you now decide

to switch the

calls, so that

the desk phone

has its audio

on-hold and the

softphone has

the active call. to

do this, simply

touch the phone

icon with audio

on-hold (yellow

handset).

now the desk

phone call is

on-hold and the

softphone call is

active, as shown

— the call in the

headset has been

switched.

similarly, if you have three connected phones where two are on audio-hold and one is active, you can switch the

active and either one of the phones on audio-hold (touch a yellow handset phone icon to make it active).
