The embedded MCU is a feature of the HD3000. It is not included with
the HD3000LT, nor is the HD3000LT upgradable to the HD3000.
HD3000 includes an MCU (Multipoint Control Unit) embedded within itself. An
MCU is a device which provides conferencing between more than two parties, or
sites. The MCU joins up to up to 4 participants (Chair + 3 sites) at 384 Kbps, or 3
participants at 768 Kbps. When the Chair, or moderator, transmits, the HD3000's
MCU multiplexes the audio and video, and then sends the resulting streams to all
the others in the session.
The HD3000's MCU joins the sites and applies Voice-activated Switching to
display the video, showing the dominant speaker, and hearing everyone's audio.
The HD3000 provides Chair and Site functionality. The Chair can join/disconnect
sites, grant/take back the floor, and force a specific view to all the sites. A site can
request/return the floor, and view the video of any other participant in the session.
For instructions on carrying out Chair and Site functions through the HD
Web Management program, see the HD Web Management User's Guide.
