Conference Bridges

What is a Conference Bridge?


Our conference bridge allows up to 2,500 people to participate in a scheduled group call meeting. Individuals may dial in to a specified number or extension, provided by the host of a conference call. Access is only granted to those with the PIN to join the call. 


How Do I Start Or Join A Conference?


1. Dial either the conference bridge phone number or extension to either initiate or join a conference.

2. After dialing the conference number, an automated voice will request the PIN provided by the host.
  1. Enter the PIN then press #.
  2. The announcement will request your name to notify the host that you have joined the Conference Bridge.
 

How do I add an Admin PIN?


Send an email to support@primevox.net to add an Admin PIN to your conference bridge. This PIN is for the host only and should not be shared with the guests of your call.
