Meeting capability runs from 10 to 50 points at 1080P, with port options up to 250 and an embedded gatekeeper that registers up to 200 points at the same time. Multi Split Screen holds as many as 25 participants in a single layout, and Lecture, Broadcasting and In-turn modes suit different meeting shapes. AES 128-bit encryption, QoS, IPv6 readiness, power redundancy and failover recovery support an estate-wide deployment alongside PeopleLink Endpoints.

Where a Multipoint Control Unit Fits in Your Organisation
How organisations deploy a Multipoint Control Unit, and what changes for the teams that use it
Government
District Review Bridge for a State Government
A state government runs its monthly district reviews on the PeopleLink InstaVC Pro MCU. Room systems dial in over H.323 or SIP while officers away from a room join over WebRTC in a browser, all inside the same 1080p conference. Multi split screen holds as many as 25 participants in one layout, and Lecture Mode gives the chair the full screen when the agenda calls for it. AES 128-bit encryption and the embedded gatekeeper keep the estate under control.
Education
Campus Lecture Bridge for a University
A university links lecture rooms across its campuses through the PeopleLink InstaVC Pro MCU. Broadcasting Mode sends one lecture to every room, and Far-End Camera Control lets the host adjust a distant room's camera with nobody standing beside it. Screen sharing and the WebRTC Whiteboard let students on laptops contribute alongside the rooms. Automatic recording at the server end captures the session for anyone who could not attend.
Enterprise
Town Hall Bridge for an Enterprise Group
An enterprise group standardises its town halls on the PeopleLink InstaVC Pro MCU. Port options from 10 to 250 let the company size the unit to its meeting pattern, and the optional MCU Cluster Service carries 300 or more 1080p calls when several conferences run at once. Conference bandwidth from 64Kbps to 8Mbps keeps smaller offices in the room, while power redundancy, load balance and failover recovery support a company-wide session.
Not sure which model fits your Multi-party conferences or Browser participants?
Tell us the room size and seating. A PeopleLink specialist will recommend the right model.
It is a Multipoint Control Unit that bridges WebRTC, H.323 and SIP endpoints into a single Full HD Video Conference, with multi split screen layouts, an embedded gatekeeper and conference management. Room systems, desktops and browser users therefore sit in the same call rather than in parallel meetings. Data collaboration adds screen sharing, a WebRTC whiteboard and chat alongside the video.
Each MCU supports 10 to 50 points for 1080P HD conferences, with port options up to 250 and an optional MCU Cluster Service carrying 300 or more 1080P calls. Audio terminal access reaches a maximum of 50 points, and conference bandwidth runs from 64Kbps to 8Mbps so smaller sites stay in the call. Size the unit on your peak concurrent meeting rather than your total room count.
It supports H.323, SIP and WebRTC communications, with H.264, H.264HP, H.263, H.261 and VP8 video coding and G.711, G.722.1C, G.728 and OPUS audio encoding. H.239 and BFCP carry the dual video stream, up to dual 1080P60. That range lets older room systems and current endpoints share one conference without a translation step.
Yes. WebRTC browser dial-in is supported, alongside H.323 and SIP dial-in or dial-out from the web server. A participant away from a meeting room joins from a standard browser with nothing to install, which suits guests and field staff. Screen sharing, whiteboard and chat are available to those WebRTC participants as well.
Port options run 10, 16, 20, 24, 30, 50, 100, 150 and 250, and the embedded gatekeeper registers up to 200 points at the same time. Where several large conferences run together, the optional MCU Cluster Service supports 300 or more 1080p calls. Share your peak concurrent meeting size and site count with a PeopleLink specialist.
Installation, service and support are delivered through PeopleLink Partners and Resellers in your region, with PeopleLink AV Specialists supporting them on sizing and integration. A partner can register your existing endpoints against the embedded gatekeeper and set the layouts and conference modes before the first scheduled session.
