ViewStation FX and VS4000 systems can be cascaded to place a
multipoint ISDN (H.320) call with up to ten sites.
The Cascading feature allows to add more video and audio
participants to a multipoint video call, without the need for a bridge.
Each of the second-level ViewStation FX units in a four-site
multipoint call can call up to two more video and one audio site. The
called placed to the audio site is a POTS call. Up to ten total video
sites and four total audio sites can participate in the call using the
built-in MCU.
