Voice Tracking

allows the camera to point toward the person

 

speaking.

B channel

Bearer channel. B channels carry audio and video.

Bandwidth

The data-carrying capacity of a network

 

connection, given in terms of speed. For example,

 

an Ethernet link is capable of moving 10 million

 

bits of data per second. A Fast Ethernet link can

 

move 100 million bits of data per second – it has 10

 

times more bandwidth.

Bonding Calls

In ISDN BRI and PRI transmissions, bonding

 

refers to joining two or more B channels together

 

to get one channel whose bandwidth is equal to

 

the sum of the bonded channels’ bandwidths.

 

Using a Quad BRI interface, up to 8 channels may

 

be bonded. T1 allows up to 23 channels to be

 

bonded, and E1 allows up to 30.

BRI

ISDN Basic Rate Interface. Provides two B

 

channels and one 16 Kbps D channel (2B+D) for a

 

total of 144 Kbps, 128Kbps of which is available

 

for the audio and video content of the call.

Bridge

A device that passes packets between network

 

segments that use the same communications

 

protocol. If a packet’s destination is within the

 

sender’s own network segment, the bridge keeps

 

the packet local. Otherwise, the bridge passes the

 

packet to the network backbone. Also, in

 

videoconferencing, a Multipoint Control Unit. See

 

MCU.

Broadcast

A one-to-many transmission that can be received

 

by anyone connected to the network.
