Defining the Cascading Conferences

The table below lists the line rates and the video settings that should be used when defining the conferences on the MGC. The same line rates should be selected when defining the Conference Profiles on the RMX 2000, as well as whether the conference is HD Video Switching.

However, the video settings will be automatically selected by the system.

Table 2-19Recommended Conference Line Rates for Cascaded Conferences

Topology	Video Session Mode	Conference Line

MGC	MGC - CIF 263	768Kb/s, 2Mb/s
	RMX2000 - CIF 264 CP

	MGC - HD VSW
RMX 2000		1.5Mb/s

In addition, the conference running on the MGC should be set as Meet Me Per Conference and select the H.239 option in the Dual Stream Mode field. For more details on conference definition on the MGC, refer to the MGC Manager User’s Guide, Volume I, Chapter 5.

Defining the Dial-out Participant on the RMX 2000

If the dialing is done from a conference running on the RMX 2000 to the conference running on the MGC, the dial-out participant is defined in the conference running on the RMX, setting the Cascade field to Slave. This participant dials the Cascade-enabled Entry Queue defined on the MGC.
