Configuring CUVC for Cisco TelePresence Interoperability

After basic CUVC configuration has been completed and the unit has been connected to the host network, you need to perform the following tasks to configure the CUVC for Cisco TelePresence Interoperability:

Verify that the MCU and EMP are running the correct software version.

Log into the CUVC Administration console and click the Media Processing tab.

Verify that the MCU is running Version 5.5.0.0.54:MP.

Verify that all EMPs are running Version 5.5.2.0.2:EMP.

EMP resources must be available and the MCU service must be defined to use HD/SD Continuous Presence with a Max Call Rate of 768 kbps or greater. “HD Switch Mode” is not supported. If you choose a service configuration such as “HD Switched Video,” the cascade connection between CTMS and CUVC will fail to connect.
