Introduction

MultiSite*

The embedded MultiSiteTF functionality can cater for up to 4 video sites and 3 audio sites and supports screen layouts such as VoiceSwitched, AutoSplit, 4 Split and 5+1 Split. The optional embedded MultiSite functionality supports any combination of ISDN and IP participants in a conference (up to the total).

ƒH.264 video algorithm to provide the best video at all bandwidths
