Conference Manager MCUs Pane

Displays information about all the MCUs that are managed by Conference Manager to host conference rooms (virtual meeting rooms, or VMRs).

The information shown includes the MCU’s connection and service status, its capabilities (recording, IVR, and SVC), its reliability (in terms of disconnects and call failures), and the number of ports in use and available to Conference Manager.

Hover over an icon to see an explanation of it. Click a column heading to sort on that column. Click the Link button to go to the MCUs page, or click an MCU name to go to the MCUs page with that MCU selected.

Note: MCUs and conference manager

An MCU may be connected to up to three Conference Manager clusters. If one of the three Conference Managers loses its connection to the MCU, this is counted as 0.33 disconnects. If all connections to the MCU are lost, this is counted as 1 disconnect.

Note: MCUs and resource usage

The RealPresence DMA system reports port numbers based on CIF resource usage. Version 8.1 and later Polycom MCUs report HD720p30 port numbers. In general, 3 CIF = 1 HD720p30, but it varies depending on bridge/card type and other factors.

See your Polycom RMX or RealPresence Collaboration Server documentation for more detailed information about resource usage.
