Audio and Visual Indications (AVC CP Conferencing)

During CP conferences, visual and audio indications are used. Various tones and voice messages may be
played during the conference, depending on the IVR Service configuration. For more details, see
Visual Indications (AVC CP
Visual indications can be displayed on the screen of the endpoint participating in the meeting, usually as an
overlay layer on top of the video layout that includes the participants video.
These indications include:
● Site Names displaying the names of the endpoints that are connected to the conference
● Text messages via closed captions to provide real-time text transcriptions or language translations
● Text messages sent by the meeting organizer to all conference participants or selected participants
Network Quality icon indicating the quality of the network used by a participant to connect to the

Site Names

During conferences you can view the names of the endpoints that are connected to the conference in your
endpoint's video layout windows. The MCU can display up to 33 characters of the endpoint's name,
depending on the window's layout (size).
The following is an example of endpoint name display in the endpoint screen:
The display of the site names is enabled or disabled in the conference Profile for CP Only or Mixed CP and
AVC conferences for AVC-based endpoints.
SVC-based endpoints handle the display of the site names themselves and are not dependant on the
conference Profile. The Site Names option is not supported in Video Switching conferences (Collaboration
Server 1500/2000/4000).
The displayed name is determined as follows:
● The system displays the name that is defined at the endpoint.
● If the endpoint does not send its name:
 For a defined H.323 or SIP participant:
 The system displays the name from the participant definition.
 For an undefined H.323 participant:
