Often the need arises for several people to be involved in a telephone conference from different locations.
Using Conference Rooms makes it possible for multiple callers to dial into a conference room and all conference together.
Conference rooms are protected by a pin number. When callers first dial a conference room number, they are required to enter the pin number for that conference room on their telephone keypad before being granted access.
Conference Room numbers are allocated automatically. They are 3 digit numbers ranging from 901 to 999.
It is possible to dial a conference room directly using its conference room number (eg 901) from any SIP phone connected to your SmartPABX.
It is also possible to configure one or more of your direct indial (DID) numbers to route to a conference room (see Configure Direct Indials). This allows callers outside of your PABX to gain access to your internal conference room.
