Muting in a CCCP Call
A Microsoft Lync client acting as the call organizer can mute all of the
participants in the call. You cannot unmute until the organizer unmutes the
participants unless you are designated as a presenter. If the meeting organizer
has muted your Polycom HDX system selectively, you can unmute your
system even if the organizer does not. It is important to understand that no one
else can unmute your microphone. They can only request that you unmute.
When your mute status changes due to a Microsoft Lync client organizer
muting or unmuting all of the participants, notification is displayed on the
Polycom HDX system monitor.
When you add a group to a CCCP conference, only the first 12 contacts in the
group are added to the call.
