IVR/Greet & Guide Welcome Slide

Up to four video slides can be stored on the MUX+ card. The Welcome slide is downloaded to all MUX+ cards if more than one card is present on the MGC+ MCU.

MUX+ Port Capacity

MUX+ resources are allocated at the reservation stage. MUX+ resources are calculated according to the relative weight assigned to the different line rates. Using the dynamic allocation mechanism, the MUX+ eliminates fragmentation and enables better utilization of resources. For example, a participant connecting at a line rate of E1 requires 10 times more resources than a participant connecting at a line rate of 128 Kbps.

Encrypted participants always require MUX+ resources and use more resources than a regular participant as shown in Table 4-9, "MUX+ Cards Port Capacity."

In a system with MUX+ cards, both encrypted and non-encrypted participants resources are allocated and calculated according to the relative weight assigned to the different line rates during a reservation. For example, a MUX+40 card can host 72 non-encrypted or 48 encrypted participants in a conference using a line rate of 128 Kbps.

The following table details the number of ports available with the MUX+ cards.
