Media Processing System (MPS) 800

The TANDBERG Media Processing System (MPS) 800 is a reliable, scalable multipoint control unit. Low life cycle costs and feature-rich support for video endpoints make the MPS 800 ideal for larger enterprises, public sector and education organizations as well as for service providers.

The TANDBERG MPS 800 chassis is 19” rack-mountable. On the front of the MCU chassis is a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) for initial configuration and basic system information. You will also find 4 Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) for power status. The backplane of the chassis is provided with advanced CompactPCI technology for high speed communication between the boards. You will find 3 cooling fans in the lower front of the chassis.

System Controller Board
The System Controller Board is installed in the first slot to the left in the chassis. The System Controller Board takes care of the following functions:

  • Call control
  • System management
  • The embedded Web server

The software is stored on compact flash on the System Controller Board.

The System Controller Board are equipped with the following interfaces:

  • 1 X LAN / Ethernet (RJ-45) 10/100 Mbit on the front.
  • 2 X LAN / Ethernet (RJ-45) 10/100 Mbit on the back
  • 1 x COM port on the front
  • 2 X USB port (these are for future use)

The LAN interfaces on the System Controller Board is for management/call control signaling.

The 2 LAN interfaces will allow you to connect to two different IP-networks so that participants with no IP-rouitng between them can be joined in a conference. At least one Media Processing Board must then be connected to each network. The 2xLAN interfaces will also give the Tandberg MPS support for two Gatekeepers - one on each network.

Media Processing Board
Add-on boards for media processing are installed in the adjacent slots in the chassis. The Media Processing Boards are handling the following functions:

  • Video processing
  • Audio processing
  • Transcoding
  • Encryption
  • Continuous Presence/Voice Switching

Each of the Media Processing Boards are equipped with 1xLAN interface for H.323 media. You will also find 4 Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) for board status.

The TANDBERG MPS is shipped with 2 hot-swappable powerunits. The power units are installed at the back of the chassis. You will also find the power switch/connector at the back of the chassis. The second LAN interface of the System Controller Board is accessible from the rear.
