Using the SCOPIA XT Series Embedded MCU
The SCOPIA XT Series MCU Edition includes an embedded MCU and is available as a license
option for the XT5000 and SCOPIA XT1200 models only.
Activate the MCU capability by registering the XT Codec Unit, as described in “Registering the
SCOPIA XT Series to Obtain a License Key”.
The SCOPIA XT Series MCU Edition can deploy two levels of MCUs:
•
MCU4 - Host videoconferences with up to 4 participants (1 Local and 3 Remote).
•
MCU9 - Host videoconferences with up to 9 Participants (1 Local and 8 Remote).
The embedded MCU can host standard definition (SD) and high definition (HD) endpoints
simultaneously (see Table 2-1 on page 9 for details). The presence of SD endpoints does
not affect the quality received by HD endpoints. SD endpoints will receive SD video streams
and HD endpoints will receive HD video streams. In the same way 4:3 and 16:9 video formats
are included in the best possible way into the continuous presence (CP) mosaic.
