Description of New Features
Call Transfer
Call Transfer allows the subscriber to transfer the current call to a 3rd Party. That is, while being in a call the subscriber can put the second party on hold and can setup a call to a 3rd Party. Once the subscriber goes onhook the second party of the first call and the 3rd Party are connected. This is effectively a mid-call call transfer. The feature supports both, the subscriber being the caller or called party in the first call.

Group Ringing
This feature allows for an incoming call to ring at three phones. The phone which goes offhook first is connected to the calling party. The remaining two phones stop ringing.
