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 Meeting Room conferencing Mode 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 Meeting Room.
When dialing into SVC Only Meeting Room the calls fail.
• SVC endpoints support both AVC and SVC video protocols. When dialing into SVC
Only conferences, they connect as SVC endpoints. When dialing into AVC Only
conferences, they connect as AVC endpoints.
In AVC Conferencing Mode, ISDN/PSTN participants can dial-in directly to a Meeting
Room without connection through an Entry Queue. Up to two numbers can be defined per
conference provided that they are from the same ISDN/PSTN Network Service. When a dial-
in number is allocated to a Meeting Room, the number cannot be deleted nor can the ISDN/
PSTN Network Service be removed. The dial-in number must be communicated to the ISDN
or PSTN dial-in participants.
In AVC Conferencing Mode, 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 RMX user or meeting organizer instructs the
conferencing system to call the participant. Dial-out participants must be defined (mainly
their name and telephone number) 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
"Permanent Conference” on page 4-80.
The maximum of number of Meeting Rooms that can be defined is:
• RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 1500/2000 — 1000
• RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 4000 — 2000
The system is shipped with four default Meeting Rooms as shown in Table 6-1.
