Place a Cascaded Call

From your RealPresence Group Series system, you can include multiple sites in a cascaded call if the
sites you call have internal multipoint capability.
The following diagram shows a cascaded call with multiple sites.
Keep the following points in mind regarding cascaded calls:
• H.239 is not supported in cascaded calls.
• Cascaded multipoint is not supported in SIP calls.
• HD and SD multipoint are not supported when the system hosts a cascaded call.
• You cannot change the near-end layout.
• The encryption padlock icon might not accurately indicate whether a cascaded call is encrypted.
• You cannot call a group of contacts by using Speed Dial or Favorites to call the group.
• You cannot place group calls on RealPresence Group 300 or 310 systems. They can participate
either dialing into a system hosting one or being called by the hosting system.
Procedure
1. Create and call a group in the directory, or place calls one at a time to several other sites.
2. Ask each far site to call additional sites.
Along with these additional sites, each far site in the original multipoint call can add one audio-only
connection.
