Blind Transfer Calls with Polycom VVX Telephones

The Blind Transfer allows you to send a call to an extension, or outside number, without waiting for an answer on the other side.

  1. Press and Hold the Transfer key (for about 1 second, until the screen changes)
  2. Dial the number you wish to transfer the call to (see tips below for some examples)

Tips:

  1. You can transfer to any internal extension.
    In this video transferring to ext 307 is demonstrated.
  2. You can transfer to an internal extension’s voicemail box (without ringing their phone and disturbing them).
    To transfer to the voicemail of 307 add a * after the number … so instead of transferring to 307, you would transfer to 307*
  3. You can transfer to any outside telephone number.
    Instead of dialing an extension number, dial the phone number (a cell phone for example) that you’d like to transfer the call to.
