Managing MultiMedia Calling
Enhanced Mode MM Complex
The user goes off-hook and selects the mm-multinbr button. The user may select the mm-multinbr
button and then go off-hook. If the user has a speakerphone on the station, the user may originate
the call simply by selecting the mm-multinbr button. The speakerphone will automatically be
placed off-hook and dialtone will be heard. Upon selection of the mm-multinbr button, the
mm-multinbr and mm-call (if present) status lamp (green led) should become solid. The user now
dials the first destination address digits. The destination address may 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 may be provided by dialing digits, using abbreviated dial entries,
last number dialed, etc. After the second address has been collected, the mm-multinbr status lamp
will go off.
Originating a multimedia call with the mm-multinbr button will originate a call according to the
Default Multimedia Parameters selected on the System Parameters Features 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 feature button is generally used by stations that are part of an Enhanced
multimedia complex, but may be used by any station to originate a dual address
multimedia call.
4
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 may 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 may 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 may 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 System Parameters Features 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
multimedia complex, but may be used by any station to originate a dual address
multimedia call.
5
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.
