Call Features
Phone Level and Line Level Feature
A call feature may be classified as a
Phone Level Feature
or a
Line Level
Feature, or simply referred to as a Phone and
Line Feature respectively. A phone feature applies to all calls on the phone regardless which line a call is on. Call
Waiting is an example of a phone feature. A line feature on the other hand applies only to calls on the specific line. BLF
is an example of a line feature. Some features may have a version for use as a phone feature as well as a line feature
that can be used on individual lines. For example, Do Not Disturb can be implemented as a phone feature for all calls
and also as a line feature for each of the SP services (SP1-SP6), OBiTALK and OBiBluetooth services.
