The Confer III line of digital conference bridges
allows you to easily and quickly connect customers, managers or
other key players in your organization. The basic Confer III is
available as an eight-party stand-alone unit. Or for larger systems,
you can couple the eight-party units together using a desktop coupler
unit (up to 32 ports). You can also purchase the Confer III eight-port
board which installs in the expandable card cage (up to 72 ports)
for even more connections. No matter which unit or units you choose,
you can rest easy knowing the Confer III interfaces with virtually
all PBX/key systems.

The Confer III unit is a self-contained eight-party
bridge with its own power supply. Its dimensions are: 20" H
x 9" W x 3" D. The bridge connects to eight PBX/key system
analog station ports or to Central Office lines. The units may be
used individually or in multiples with the desktop coupler unit
to provide up to 32 ports.
The Confer III card cage is rack or wall mounted. Its dimensions
are: 20" W x 16" H x 12" D. It includes a power supply
and card guides to plug in up to nine Confer III boards for space-efficient
mounting of multiple bridges and up to 72 ports. Flexible configurations
in multiples of 4 ports

Confer III features a wide array of user-friendly
options. You can assign authorization codes to keep conference calls
private, or use the dial out option to call out while on conference.
Configure the Confer III to your own special requirements. It’s
up to you.
Coupler
The Confer Coupler Unit is a self-contained, desktop coupler for
connecting up to 4 bridges (32 ports). The Coupler makes possible
8, 16 or 24 port conferencing with easy push-button control. Switches
for coupling and monitoring of bridges are located on the front
panel of the Coupler. The Coupler will work with the Confer III
or the previous model, the Confer II. An AC plug-in power pack is
included. The Coupler Unit may be located remotely from the bridges.
Authorization Code
The authorization code provides security to access the bridge.
When a person calls into the bridge, he/she must enter the correct
4-digit code assigned for the conference to be allowed into the
conference. A wrong code will disconnect the caller.
Per Port Options
- 2-wire audio
- 4-wire audio (always in the conference, no supervision)
- 4-wire E&M.(similar to Type 5)
- Live line
Contact Forum for details on these port types. Voice

The Confer III conference bridge easily connects to
2-wire, loop-start central office (CO) lines, Centrex lines or analog
station lines of a PBX or key system, via standard RJ11 modular
connectors or 50-pin Amphenol-style connectors. The lines are usually
programmed into a rotary hunt group in the PBX or CO so that only
the lead number needs to be used.
The Confer III detects ringing signals on a line and answers that
line. To release a line when a party hangs up, the Confer III requires
disconnect from the line (the PBX or CO.) The preferred method is
to see loop current interrupt on the line when the calling part
hangs up, much like many voice-mail systems require. This is provided
by virtually all COs and by most PBXs (except Northern Telecom and
Toshiba). It may require a "voice mail" card or an OPX
card in the PBX. If a loop-current-interrupt is not provided,
the Confer III can be set (by switch selection) to disconnect
when North American dial, busy, or reorder tone is present on
the line. This is the method used on any Northern Telecom or Toshiba
PBX, plus others, and the PBX typically must be programmed to
provide the appropriate tone to the Confer III when the caller
hangs up.
A third, default, disconnect is available (switch selectable)
if no disconnect supervision is provided. It requires that a user
enter a DTMF code on their phone to have the system hang up for
them. As stated, this is a last-resort to releasing lines at the
end of a conference.
