Chapter 2 | Making Calls on a Scopia
To start or join a meeting with multiple participants, you need an MCU like the Scopia
An MCU, or Multipoint Control Unit, connects several endpoints to a single videoconference. It manages the audio
mixing and creates the video layouts, adjusting the output to suit each endpoint's capabilities.
This section explains how to start or join a meeting instantly or by using an auto-attendant number which your system
administrator has defined in the organization's dial plan. The section also includes recommendations on how to
optimize your videoconference experience.

Tips for Participating in a Videoconference
There are several general recommendations you should follow to optimize your videoconferencing
experience.
We recommend that you read this section before participating in a videoconference for the first time.
• Use natural gestures and speak normally as in a real meeting.
• Do not rustle paper or tap on the table or the microphone.
• Keyboard clicking can be disruptive to the videoconference, so we recommend using the mute
when listening but not actively participating.
• Zooming too close can show that your eyes are not looking directly at the camera, in some cases.
Set the zoom of the built-in camera so the frame includes the user's head and upper body.
• If you are using a laptop during a meeting, do not place it too close to the microphone. Noise
produced by the computer fan may interfere with audio quality.
• Always mute the microphone before moving it.
• Avoid using your cellular phones during your meeting to avoid electromagnetic interference.
