MCU services

A Multipoint Control Unit (MCU) enables several sites to participate in the same conference.

An MCU conference can have different modes:

Voice Switched means that the image of the person currently speaking will be broadcast to all the other conference participants. This will remain the case until another participant starts to speak.

Continuous Presence shows several participants on the same screen at the same time.

Chairman Control functionality enables one participant to control the meeting by selecting which of the conference participants is to be broadcasted to the other participants.

NOTE THIS SYSTEM HAS AS AN OPTIONAL BUILT-IN MCU, MULTISITE, WHICH SUPPORTS UP TO 3 VIDEO CALLS (4 SITES) AND ONE TELEPHONE CALL. THE MULTISITE SUPPORTS BOTH VOICE SWITCHED AND CONTINUOUS PRESENCE MODE, SEE SECTION ‘MULTISITE’.

The system can also control external MCUs in a very flexible manner using the functions described below.

TIP

DURING AN MCU CONFERENCE, A STATUS LINE WILL PROVIDE INFORMATION ABOUT THE CONFERENCE. TO REMOVE THIS STATUS LINE, SELECT ‘UTILITIES’, ‘MCU STATUS LINE: OFF’.
