The Operator Connect Conferencing license allows subscribers to use phone numbers from an operator, but it doesn’t include phone numbers from Microsoft. All outbound calls from Teams meetings must be routed via an operator. For more information, see Configure Operator Connect Conferencing.
Operator Connect Conferencing (Governmental Community Cloud Pricing) provides all the functionality of its enterprise counterpart (Operator Connect Conferencing) but is hosted in a separate, secured environment and adds compliance features like accreditations, personnel screening, and data residency that enable the service to meet the unique needs of US Government customers. State and local government customers that require compliance-level data protection and security can also take advantage of Operator Connect Conferencing (Governmental Community Cloud Pricing).
