1. Introduction

Point to point video conference systems have become imbedded into the fabric of today’s small and medium business who are seeking cost reductions by leveraging their telecommunications infrastructure. To this end, Nortel’s Business Communications Manager (BCM) provides the necessary converged infrastructure to enable this type of application.

This document is the result of a specific customer request for configuration information regarding point-to-point video conference system based upon a Polycom VideoStation connected to a BCM via BRI. Considerable time and effort were needed to secure the components needed to build this configuration which is intended to cl osely mimic a legacy customer system.
