Managing MultiMedia Calling
Note:
The mm-multinbr feature button is generally used by stations that are part of an
Note:
Enhanced multimedia complex, but can be used by any station to originate a dual
address multimedia call.
5. Multimedia Multi-number Call feature access code. For stations that do not have an
administered mm-multinbr button, the Multimedia Multi-number call feature access code
can be used instead. It allows origination of a multimedia call from a voice station. It is used
when the destination being dialed requires a different address for each of the 2 B-channels.
An example of this is Central Office provided ISDN-BRI. This type of BRI line is provisioned
with separate listed directory numbers for each B-channel. In order to make a 2B
multimedia call to such a device, two sets of addresses must be entered.
The user goes off-hook and dials the MM-multinbr feature access code. Upon dialing of the
MM-multinbr FAC, the mm-call (if present) status lamp (green led) should become solid.
The user now dials the first destination address digits. The destination address can be
provided by dialing digits, using abbreviated dial entries, last number dialed, etc. The
system will provide dialtone after the first address has been completed. The user now dials
the second destination address digits. The destination address can be provided by dialing
digits, using abbreviated dial entries, last number dialed, etc.
Originating a multimedia call with the MM-multinbr FAC will originate a call according to the
Default Multimedia Parameters selected on the Feature-Related System Parameters
screen. This default parameter will be either 2x56 or 2x64. The bearer capability of the
multimedia calls will either be 56K or 64K and the bandwidth will be 2B channels.
Note:
The mm-multinbr FAC is generally used by stations that are part of an Enhanced
Note:
multimedia complex, but can be used by any station to originate a dual address
multimedia call.
6. Multimedia parameter selection feature access code. This FAC is used to originate a
multimedia call that wishes to use a different bearer and bandwidth than the system default.
For example, if the system has a default multimedia parameter of 2x64 and the user wishes
to make a call to a destination that is known to only have 56K digital facilities, the MM
parameter selection FAC can be used to select a bearer and bandwidth of 2x56 for this
specific call.
The MM parameter selection FAC can be used in conjunction with the mm-multinbr button
or FAC to make a single or dual address multimedia call at the desired bearer and
bandwidth. The user goes off-hook and dials the MM-parameter selection feature access
code. Dialtone is returned. The user enters a single digit, 1 or 2, where 1 = 2x64, 2 = 2x56.
All other digits will produce reorder. Dialtone is returned. Upon dialing of the MM-parameter
selection FAC, the mm-call (if present) status lamp (green led) should become solid. The
user can indicate a dual-address call at this point with the mm-multinbr button or FAC. The
user now dials one or two sets of destination address digits. The destination address can be
provided by dialing digits, using abbreviated dial entries, last number dialed, etc.
