-Quad Mode must run on the Video+8 card. Participants from multiple
Video+8 cards can take part in a single conference.
— Video Processors - Total number of video processors from all
Video+8 cards installed in the MCU. Each video processor can run a
single Continuous Presence or Transcoding participant.
MUX+ - Displayed is the total number of MUX+ port resources
•
available according to the card type, line rate and encryption. A
conference can be run on multiple MUX+ cards. MUX+ resources are
calculated according to the relative weight assigned to the different line
rates. Encrypted participants always require MUX+ resources and use
more resources than a regular participant.
IP Video participants do not require the MUX+ card, because all IP cards
have built-in MUX+ functionality.
The Port-Unit Allocation Method box determines how all the resources
are allocated. The selection of the mode can be done only when no
conference is running.
