Connecting Multiple On-Site Video Endpoints
You can connect multiple video endpoints within the same network for a video conference. The
following figure shows an example of multiple video endpoints registered at different SIP registrars with
an on-campus MCU.
Figure 4-4: Connecting Multiple On-Site Video Endpoints
This figure illustrates an example of a video conference established between two registered partners
using an MCU in the private domain of one of the partners. For example, a representative of Siemens
Enterprise Communications wants to meet with a Polycom associate using a Siemens MCU address
siemens-enterprise.com.
User A calls into the MCU with the domain name, for example,
88888. User B dials into the MCU by
dialing
domain_name@private domain.com, for example, 88888@siemens-enterprise.com.
Connecting Multiple Off-Site Video Endpoints
You can use an off-site MCU to establish video conferences between multiple off-site video endpoints,
each registered with a different SIP registrar. The following diagram illustrates how multiple partners,
such as Siemens Enterprise Communications and Polycom, can connect for a video conference using an
MCU in the private domain, for example, as
siemens-enterprise.com.
