As an example Fanvil X3U shown in the picture, but the process is the same for most of the Fanvil XU IP phone models.

Call transfer is a valuable feature that allows you to transfer a call from your Fanvil X3U IP phone to another person's extension/mobile/landline number.

This can be helpful in various situations, such as when a caller needs to speak with someone else in your organization or when you need to transfer a call to a different department. In this article, we'll walk you through how to use call transfer on your Fanvil X3U.

Before you begin, it's important to note that there are two types of call transfer: blind and attended.

Blind transfer is when you transfer a call to another person or extension without speaking to them first. Attended transfer is when you speak to the person or extension you're transferring the call to before completing the transfer.

Depending on your needs, you may use one or both types of the call transfer.

To use call transfer on your Fanvil X3U, follow these steps:

1. During an active call, press the "Xfer" soft key on your phone's display screen. This will place the caller on hold and give you a dial tone.

2. Enter the number or extension of the person or department you want to transfer the call to. If you're doing an attended transfer, wait for the person or department to answer the call.

3. To complete the transfer, press the "Xfer" soft key again. If you're doing an attended transfer, you can also press the "Cancel" soft key to return to the original call.
