TIP-enabled endpoints must support TIP Version 7 or higher. Calls from endpoints
supporting older versions of TIP will be rejected.
Deployment Architectures
The following multipoint topologies are given as examples. Actual deployments will
depend on user requirements and available infrastructure:
• Single company with Polycom and Cisco Infrastructure
— CTS and Polycom Telepresence Rooms in a corporate environment.
• Company to company via Service Provider
— Model 1: Mixed Polycom and Cisco infrastructure at one of the companies, Cisco
only infrastructure at the other.
— Model 2: Polycom only infrastructure at one of the companies, Cisco only
infrastructure at the other.
Single Company Model - Polycom and Cisco Infrastructure
The deployment architecture in Figure I-1 shows a company that has a mixture of Polycom
and Cisco endpoints, room systems and telephony equipment that needs to enable
multipoint calls between all its video and audio endpoints using the MCU as the conference
bridge.
