Call waiting was introduced to North America in the early 1970s when the first generation of electronic switch machines built by Western Electric, Electronic Signaling System 1 started to replace older mechanical equipment in the old Bell System local telephone companies. At first, some smaller municipalities were able to offer customers call waiting only on a specific phone exchange (e.g., phone customers in Trenton, Michigan initially had to have a phone number starting with 671 to have call waiting, since 671 was at that time the only exchange in that area served by one of the new ESS switches), but as demand for it became more widespread, it eventually became available on all phone exchanges as the older equipment was phased out.

In Europe, call waiting was also introduced in the 1970s with the introduction of the first digital switching systems such as the Ericsson AXE, Alcatel E10 and System 12. It was also available on some Ericsson crossbar exchanges, such as the ARE11 which, while electromechanical, was also computerised. Other digital systems such as the UK's System X also supported the service. Switching systems developed in the 1980s such as the German Siemens/Bosch EWSD also had call waiting.

Call waiting in Europe uses an "R" (recall) button on the phone. This performs a similar function to a North American hook flash button but is much shorter duration, typically 80ms to 100ms, vs. 250ms in North America. In some networks, pressing R toggles between the calls, similar to North America. However, in most countries there are further options:

Since the waiting call uses a zip tone (for example, a 440 Hz beep every ten seconds in North America), call waiting can cause dial-up Internet access connections to terminate, unless the modem supports the most recent V.92 modem standard. For this reason, call waiting is often disabled on shared voice lines used for dial-up modem or fax purposes. However, Call Waiting has no impact on DSL connections.

This CLASS-based POTS-telephone calling feature works by combining the services of call waiting with caller ID but also introduces an "options" feature that, in conjunction with certain screen-based telephones, or other capable equipment, gives a telephone user the option to:

I was on the phone (I have a Pixel 4) with a friend yesterday and someone else called me. The second caller (They have a Samsung Galaxy 8) told me that they noticed I was on the phone because their dialer stated "Call is Waiting". I called T-Mobile and they were unaware of this feature. I'm reaching out to the community to see if anyone has any insight?

If you go into settings > phone and turn off call waiting then any calls you receive when you are busy with another call will be auto-rejected and sent to voicemail or other similar service. If you leave call waiting on, when the second call comes through you'll be able to reject it yourself or put the current call on hold to switch to the new call.

On models with Dual SIM, call waiting works only for incoming calls on the same line, unless the other line has Wi-Fi calling enabled and a data connection is available. See Set up cellular service on iPhone.

With the feature on, whenever you get a call on the second line, you will see several options for handling it on your device. Handling options include transferring the call to another number, joining another person to the conversation, switching back and forth between lines, or sending it to voicemail.

Any regular smartphone has a basic call waiting setting to put one conversation on hold and respond to another. But only professional phone systems have the capability to transfer calls with the press of a button or connect to another line simultaneously.

With their lines under attack during peak seasons, any business would appreciate an extra pair of ears. The feature allows agents to speak to two customers at once or direct the caller to another employee that can address their needs without pause.

Call waiting is available by default on most traditional phones. To apply it on a standard business phone, when you hear the signal for a new inbound call, quickly press the receiver button or flash button and release it. This will put the first caller on hold and transfer you to the second line. To return to the first line, again press the receiver or flash button briefly.

To turn off Call Waiting so as not to be interrupted on important calls, press *70 on your receiver before doing anything else. Listen to the dial tone and dial the phone number. The waiting option will be automatically reactivated on your next call.

When I used my previous phone, when I am calling someone, I used to get a notification if the party that I am calling is in another call and I am waiting. I usually don't like to disturb people when they are in another call so I promptly hang up. But I've noticed that my HTC Desire S does not tell me that information.

Just to clarify, I am NOT looking for activating call waiting on my phone so I get an alert when another person is calling me. I want to know when a call I initiated is in call-waiting on the other end.

When you use call waiting to talk to the person on the other line, the call you were on is put on hold. You can press either the flash or the line 1 or line 2 button (depending on which line the original call came in on) to switch back to your original call.

I couldn't see a waiting circle. Cause my program should call the function automatically I couldn't use this method.(If I use document.getElementById("launcher").focus() to automatically start the function, It showed waiting circle again.) I guess there's a some different context to call JavaScript function.

when you enable call waiting then user can be notified during an active call in place. he will be notified by a new call and he is allowed to take that call but in that case the person who is calling just thinks that the call is like normal going and ringing the B-Party extension but actually the B-Party is on another call.

With SIP phones, they are multi-line and more interactive. So if you have multiple appearances, you can have it not only beep but the next available line appearance will happen, in some cases the phone will not only beep but also show the call details on the screen. If you have a single line appearance the line will blink while you hear the beep.

This is not something that can be done in the PBX GUI directly. You would have to write custom dialplan so that when new calls came in it checks to see if the device is on an inbound call and if CW is enabled then do something with that call. Such as play your announcement and then dial the device.

This is not a robust solution because if the secondary is in use but the call on the primary has been cleared, a third call will ring the primary without an announcement, but it may be adequate for a quick workaround.

Hello, everyone!

I would like to implement call waiting and hold like they work in PSTN. As I have read, call waiting is done on the side of softphones/sip phones. I have enabled call waiting on my softphone. When I call as a second line, it now works, but, when I answer the second line, the first line is not put on hold and gets disconnected. I have set device_state_busy_at = 2 for a particular endpoint, but this does not help. How does it work?

I have tested this on different soft phones. With one it worked. I have set device_state_busy_at to 0, it worked again with the same softphone. Is callwaiting and hold implemented entirely on the side of phones? Also, it would have been good to play an incoming message to the second line. Is it done in asterisk?

I have tested, how call waiting and hold work with DEVICE_STATE and DIAL. The problem in my situation is that Asterisk only knows that an endpoint is INUSE and cannot predict, whether it will issue BUSY or not. Asterisk played an announcement (the subscriber is talking over another line, please hold on or call later) and then dialed the endpoint, but got different results: if an endpoint permitted multiple lines, it worked okey; if not, it received BUSY. I cannot understand how to implement playing an announcement and not depend on the settings of a particular softphone.

If the Call Waiting feature is turned on, the user will receive calls on line two while he is already on a call. If the feature is turned off, while the user is already on a call, the incoming call for line two will follow the path set for call forwarding when busy.

Most businesses will miss a certain number of calls on a daily basis. A call waiting feature is designed to solve that problem by notifying you when you've got another incoming call if you're already on a call with another customer.

Are you on one call and don't want your other callers to hear a busy tone? Luckily, you can activate call waiting on many Android phones, although not every cellular service carrier provides it. If you don't see call waiting, call your carrier to see if they support call waiting. This wikiHow article teaches you how to enable call waiting in your Android's call settings.

UCCX 10.6.1 su3 - Agents in a couple different applications notice Calls Waiting when there are agents available and Ready. The call waiting does not appear in other agents display or the supervisor display. Time in queue continues to increment and if the agent logs out and back in the call disappears.
