CONFERENCING
The RADVISION PRI Gateway enables H.323 endpoints on the IP network to
communicate with an H.320 terminal, an ISDN phone, or a regular phone on a
circuit-switched public network without having to connect directly to these
networks. The Gateway allows all IP network terminals to support video
conferences without connecting every desktop computer to an ISDN line (see
Figure 1-1).
