Paging users who are on active calls
Use this procedure to allow one user to interrupt another user’s call and make a
private announcement. This is called whisper paging. The paging user dials a
feature access code or presses a feature button, then dials the extension they want
to call. All 3 users can hear the tone that signals the page, but only the person on
the paged extension can hear the pager’s voice: other parties on the call cannot
hear it, and the person making the page cannot hear anyone on the call.
