Configuring Multipoint Calling
Entering a Multipoint Software Registration Key
4 - 32
You can use your VSX system to participate in multipoint conferences. Multipoint
conferences include multiple video sites (IP and ISDN) and can also include
voice-only sites.
During a multipoint call, a multipoint conferencing unit (MCU) enables the video
to switch to the various sites so that you can see and hear the other conference
participants.
VSX room systems have internal MCUs and can initiate multipoint calls. These
systems can also use the Conference on Demand feature of Polycom's Path
Navigator for multipoint calling. The VSX 6000 system does not have an internal
MCU and can participate in a multipoint call but cannot initiate one.
Depending on your VSX system model, you may need to enter a multipoint option
key to enable multipoint calling.
Before placing multipoint calls, you may need to enter a multipoint software
registration key.
To enter the multipoint software registration key:
1. Go to System > Admin Settings > General Settings > Options.
2. Enter the multipoint key provided.
For information about purchasing the multipoint call option, please contact your Polycom
distributor.
