Silent Hold In Strata CS, when the user puts a caller on silent hold, the repeated
playing of Strata CS’s call-handling prompts (“Press 1 to transfer,” and so forth) are
suppressed. From the caller’s point of view, silent hold is identical to regular hold, as the
caller still hears call-handling prompts and hold music, if it is used.
