MultiPoint Video Calls
MultiPoint Plus Software Upgrade
MP
Plus
is available for the HDX 8000 series, and included with some models/bundles. If your system has
MP
Plus,
its built-in 4 port MCU is activated with the purchase of a MultiPoint Plus Software License Key. HDX
8000 systems can be upgraded to 8 ports. This license allows you to connect up to three or seven far sites to
one conference, and supports mixed IP and ISDN endpoints. Once you have activated the MultiPoint license
in your HDX 8000 series, it’s easy to make multipoint calls. You can add participants at any time during your
conference, and can disconnect individual or all sites at any time.
Adding a Site to a MultiPoint Call

• While in a call, press the Call button on the remote
• Dial the number you wish to call, or select it from the address book
• Repeat these steps until all sites are connected
Disconnecting a Site in a MultiPoint Call
While in a MultiPoint call, you can disconnect sites one at a time at any time during the call.

Using the Address Book to Store a MultiPoint Call

Using an External Bridge
If you need to connect, or “bridge” more sites, or if you do not have a MultiPoint
License, you can connect your videoconference over an external bridge. SKC
offers a full range of conferencing services, and can assist you with any bridged
conferences you hold. For more information, call (888) 336-9752.
