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. Meeting Rooms
can be activated as many times as required. Once activated, a Meeting Room functions as any ongoing
conference.
The conferencing Mode of the Meeting Room is determined by the Profile assigned to it.
In SVC Conferencing Mode, dial-in is available as follows:
●AVC-capable endpoints (participants) can only connect to an AVC CP Meeting Room. When dialing
into SVC Only Meeting Room the calls fail.
●SVC-capable endpoints support both AVC and SVC video protocols. When dialing into SVC Only
conferences, they connect as SVC endpoints. When dialing into AVC CP Only conferences, they
connect as AVC endpoints.
●Both AVC and SVC endpoints can connect to a mixed CP and SVC conference.
In AVC CP Conferences, 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 Collaboration Server user or meeting organizer instructs the conferencing system to call the
participant. Dial-out participants must be defined (mainly their name) 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.
A Meeting Room can be designated as a Permanent Conference.
For more information see Audio Algorithm Support.
The maximum of number of Meeting Rooms that can be defined is: 1000.
The system is shipped with four default Meeting Rooms:
In the RealPresence CloudAxis Solution, the virtual Meeting Rooms are defined in the RealPresence
DMA system component and should not be defined directly in the Polycom® RealPresence®
Collaboration Server 800s and Polycom® RealPresence® Collaboration Server Virtual Edition
component.
