Multipoint Calls (Optional)
Your ViewStation EX system can be upgraded to support all of the
multipoint call features described in this section. In order to
upgrade your system to support multipoint calls, you will need to
purchase a multipoint key from Polycom. For detailed instructions
on how to upgrade your system to support multipoint calls, refer to
Upgrading the System for Multipoint Calls
in chapter 2.
When there are more than two parties participating in a video call,
it is called a multipoint call. You can have up to four parties
participating in a call with the ViewStation EX system.
If you have a BRI network interface, you can place multipoint calls
over a BRI line or over IP (H.323) on the LAN. If you have a
V.35/RS-449/RS-530 network interface, you can place multipoint
calls only over IP on the LAN.
