Key Features
High Conference Capacity
You can host up to 250 participants on your HD audio conference calls, or up to 500 participants with a Custom Number Option.

Your conference bridge is always active. Conference calls begin instantly whenever the bridge is accessed; no scheduling is required. (Hosts can control when callers are placed into a live conference.)
Streamlined Conference Management
The web-based Live Conference Manager allows hosts to manage conference calls, modify feature settings, and control conference recording. You can also elect to receive a conference summary report after every call.
Host Controls
Multiple Hosts
Any number of parties can join the call as hosts (by entering the Host PIN upon joining the bridge), allowing multiple leaders on the conference call.
Live Conference Manager
Hosts can log into the web-based Live Conference Manager to manage conference calls, including viewing participant Caller ID, muting participants, modifying feature settings, and controlling conference recording.
Conference Recording
Digital recording of the call, which can be downloaded from the Cumulus HD Audio website. Hosts can toggle the recording on and off during a call, using keypad codes or the Live Conference Manager.
Email Conference Report
You can elect to receive a conference summary report after every call, listing the participants and other call details, including a link to download the recording of the call (if available).
Conference Lock
A host can lock access to the conference bridge, preventing new callers from joining the active call.
Participant or Group Muting

Promote to Host
During a conference call, a non-Host can promote him or herself to the Host role (by entering a keypad command and providing the private Host PIN), giving him or her access to the Host Keypad Commands – eliminating the need to drop off and call back in as the Host.
