running conferences, defining IVR services and managing the system, refer
to the MGC Manager User's Guide Volumes I & II and the MGC
Administrator's Guide included with the system. References to the relevant
chapters of these guides are included throughout this Getting Started Guide.
This is an example of the notes that you may encounter throughout this guide.
The MGC-50 and MGC-100 are high performance, high capacity multi-
network solutions that provides you with feature-rich, and easy-to-use
multipoint voice, video and gateway conferencing.
The system meets International Telecommunication Union -
Telecommunication Standardization Sector, (ITU-T, formerly CCITT)
standards for multipoint multimedia bridging devices, and meets ETSI
standards for telecommunication products. The MGC-100 DC also meets
the NEBS Compliant Standard (when so ordered) for our clients based in the
United States.
The flexible architecture in the system is designed to accommodate users'
changing multipoint needs. This system utilizes a modular "universal slot"
platform that allows the formation of different configurations based on
users' individual port capacity and functionality requirements.
