When you do a Blind Transfer, then this is done without actually initiating a call to the other extension. The call is transferred blind. Compared with Attended transfer, you setup a call with the other extension and this person can decide to accept the call or not. When the other side accepts the call, the call on-hold is transferred. You also have the option for unattended transfer where you setup the call to the other extension and before they answered, you already transferred the call on-hold. For the End-user, unattended and Blind transfer acts the same. The differences are more on the protocol level.
