conferencing

Key Points
• MICB delivers cost-effective, interactive, multi-
point audio conferences accessible from any
telephone, anytime, anywhere in the world
• MICB provides administrators and users alike
with cost-effective in-house conference
capabilities without the inconvenience of external
OEM equipment, or more expensive and less
secure third-party service bureaus
• Being “in-house” means conferences can be
scheduled at a moment’s notice instead of
coordinating services with a suitable provider
• Access to MICB is provided at the user level for
conference management and at the
administrator level for configuration, editing
conference parameters, bridge allocation,
assigning control directory numbers, or analysing
traffic reports
• The administration of conferences can be
controlled via a web-based browser user interface
on a personal computer
Features and Benefits
The Meridian Integrated Conference Bridge
offers features designed to make scheduling,
administrating and attending a conference
effortless for any organisation.
To ensure conference security, MICB provides
password protection on a conference-by-conference
basis. Specific calls can be password protected, or all
calls protected depending on the level of security
that is desired. Passwords are assigned at the
administrator level at the time the conference is
scheduled and are between four and eight digits in
length. MICB will allow two attempts to enter a
password and if still incorrect, will advise the user to
contact the bridge administrator.
