Installing the Cisco Unified
Videoconferencing 3545 MCU
The Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3545 MCU works together with a Cisco Unified
Videoconferencing 3545 EMP Enhanced Media Processor (EMP) module to perform audio and
videoconferencing. The Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3545 MCU is responsible for signaling and
audio. The EMP is responsible for video. The Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3545 MCU and EMP
modules connect via the Ethernet.
Each Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3545 MCU may be registered to up to three EMP modules on the
same chassis.
For correct operation, the EMP card must register with the MCU.
