Configuring the Cisco MeetingPlace Audio Server
Perform the following tasks before you install Cisco MeetingPlace Video Integration.
Modifying the Translation Table
Step 1 If your Cisco MeetingPlace system supports IP phones only, you do not need to change the translation table on the Cisco MeetingPlace audio server.
If your Cisco MeetingPlace audio server is configured for both PSTN and IP interfaces, and your organization does not have a certified Cisco MeetingPlace technician, contact Cisco MeetingPlace Professional Services to modify the translation table in Cisco MeetingPlace audio server. For information, contact your Cisco technical support representative. See the Guide to Cisco Conferencing Documentation and Support.
About Setting the Audio Codec Negotiation Priority
Sound quality and bandwidth use are determined partly by the audio codec that the Cisco MeetingPlace and Cisco IPVC systems use. The video endpoint’s video signal and its audio channel must share available bandwidth. As a result, better picture quality may degrade audio quality or delay audio transmission.
The Cisco MeetingPlace audio server supports the G.711 and G.729a compression codecs. To allocate resources between audio and video to best meet your needs, specify a voice data compression protocol in Cisco MeetingPlace audio server using the setipcodec command. For instructions, see the Configuration Guide for Cisco MeetingPlace Audio Server Release 5.3. Use the following guideline:
•To make more bandwidth available for video, assign G.729 the highest priority.
•For better audio sound quality, assign G.711 the highest priority.
Supporting G.729
Step 1 If Cisco MeetingPlace Audio Server is configured to use only G.729, make sure the Cisco IPVC MCU is configured to support G.729. A transcoder card may be needed.
