ESCRIPTION
Each LifeSize Multipoint unit internally contains two cards:
Signaling and audio card (LifeSize Multipoint—the upper card)
Video processing card (MVP—the lower card)
The two cards work together to perform audio and videoconferencing, but each
card requires a unique IP address. The cards communicate with each other using
IP as the backbone.
Note
For correct operation, the MVP card must register with the LifeSize
Multipoint.
This section provides a physical description of the LifeSize Multipoint-12 and
LifeSize Multipoint-24 units.
The LifeSize Multipoint unit has a 10/100BaseT Ethernet port on the front panel
that uses an RJ-45 connector to connect to the network. There is an
asynchronous, 9-pin serial-port that you can use with a hyperterminal program
to configure and monitor the module.
Figure 2-1 shows the front panel of the LifeSize Multipoint unit. Table 2-1
describes the components of the front panel.
