Abstract

A multi-site communication system (100) includes a plurality of communication units ( 112-117), a central controller (101) for coupling a plurality of communication sites (106-108), and a site controller (103) corresponding to one of the communication sites (106). Communication access between two or more communication units (112-117) can be enhanced by a method (200, 300) including the steps of receiving (201) a request for a first communication, and directing (211) the appropriate site controller to re-submit the request. By so doing, the site controller (103) can request (314) the central controller (101) to establish a realizable communication between two communication units in the system (113, 114).
