Meeting Rooms

A Meeting Room is a conference saved on the MCU in passive mode, without using any of the system resources. A Meeting Room is automatically activated when the first participant dials into it.

ISDN/PSTN participants can dial-in directly to a Meeting Room without connection through an Entry Queue. Up to two numbers can be defined per conference provided that they are from the same ISDN/PSTN Network Service. When a dial-in number is allocated to a Meeting Room, the number cannot be deleted nor can the ISDN/PSTN Network Service be removed. The dial-in number must be communicated to the ISDN or PSTN dial-in participants.

Dial-out participants can be connected to the conference automatically, or manually. In the automatic mode the system calls all the participants one after the other. In the manual mode, the RMX user or meeting organizer instructs the conferencing system to call the participant. Dial-out participants must be defined (mainly their name and telephone number) and added to the conference. This mode can only be selected at the conference/Meeting Room definition stage and cannot be changed once the conference is ongoing.

Meeting Rooms can be activated as many times as required. Once activated, a Meeting Room functions as any ongoing conference.

All Meeting Rooms are based on a Profile.

The maximum of number of Meeting Rooms that can be defined is:

•RMX 2000 — 1000

•RMX 4000 — 2000
