You can set up and supervise the bridge connections through an attendant con- sole. Participants can dial into a prearranged conference at a specified time. The calls are then connected automatically, or can be screened by the attendant before being added to the conference. The attendant can also monitor the trans- mission quality of any or all of the active conference links. Poor connections can be identified, isolated, and re-dialed without interrupting the rest of the confer- ence.

The bridge design ensures optimum sound clarity on the conference no matter how many participants are connected or where they are located. The bridge cir- cuitry senses any differences in signal strength and electronically balances voice levels. It also filters any extraneous noises that could interfere with the confer- ence.

The Quorum A-28 Conference Bridge allows you to connect up to 28 different people on a single conference call. Or you can set up multiple conferences — up to four conferences with seven participants each.

The bridge also provides a lecture mode that you can use for one-way broad- casts. Using the Mute feature, participants can be placed in a listen-only mode, allowing one speaker to address the rest of the conference.

SoundStation Audioconferencing Systems

Lucent Technologies’s SoundStation and SoundStation EX Audioconferencing Systems enable a group of people in a conference room to share their conversa- tion with others through a telephone connection. The Soundstation equipment permits natural conversation among many people — whether strong or soft, or from a standing or sitting position. Integrated components and a stylish tripod design make the console an attractive yet unobtrusive conference table center- piece (Figure 10-3).
