Video Conferencing

In late 2000 JSC installed a video conferencing room (building 16.3, basement, room 005), that can be used by the staff of the Research Center ( equipment,  view of the video conferencing room). The installed systems support the operation of audio/video conferences according to the common standards:
  • ISDN (H.320):  four ISDN-Links supporting conferences with up to four participating sites
  • IP (H.323):  point-to-point or point-to-multipoint-connections (using DFN video conferencing service)
  • Duo-Video (H.239): support of a data channel to transfer data (e.g. VGA signal) within a video conference
  • IP-Multicast:  MBone/Access-Grid-based conferences using multiple video streams and high quality audio (up to 10 Mbps)
  • connection of an additional audio participant to an existing conference using an ordinary telephone line
  • DFN video conferencing service also supports the operation of
    telephone conferences or mixed video/telephone conferences.
Supporting video streams from external sources (document camera, VCR, DVD player) can be transmitted.

The following two links point towards pages with information about sites that have access to IP based conferencing services:
