Name and description Example layouts
Overlay layouts show the active speaker
or content and up to nine overlaid
continuous presence panes (per screen)
showing other recently active speakers.
These are called ActivePresence layouts
on the TelePresence Server.
Single screen layouts only show the
active speaker or content. On multi-screen
endpoints, other recent speakers will
show on the additional screens.
Prominent layouts show the active
speaker or content and up to four of the
most recent loudest speakers. This is the
default layout used if the endpoint
chooses to show content in main video.
This layout is not available on multi-
screen endpoints.
Equal layouts show a grid of up to 4, 9, or
16 of the most recent active speakers in
equal panes, depending on the number
and type of endpoints in the conference.
Multi-screen endpoints are displayed
together in a horizontal group and may be
centered if the grid is wider than the
number of screens in the endpoint. This
layout is not available on multi-screen
endpoints.

PSTN audio support for WebEx Enabled TelePresence meetings
This release adds support for PSTNaudio WebEx meetings where previously the TelePresence Server
(version 3.0) required SIP for the audio portion of the WebEx call. You can read more about WebEx Enabled
TelePresence with TelePresence Server 3.0 at
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/telepresence/infrastructure/tms/config_guide/webex_enabled_
telepresence/cts_webex_bridge.html.
Customers can now choose to use SIP or the PSTN for the audio portion of the call between WebEx and the
TelePresence Server. This feature only applies to the call between WebEx and the TelePresence Server,
and does not affect the audio connections between WebEx participants and the WebEx conference (which
can be PSTN audio, SIP audio, or computer telephony).
