Sector-You are right conversion is different than the call feature. Essentially, the owners of the debentures can convert whenever they want. Why would they want to if the price was below or if they are getting income from the debenture and no dividends on the common? Therefore, the callable provision allows the company to force conversion once the share price gets high enough.

Best regards,

Mike
