Balanced
Microphone
A balanced microphone uses a cable that is built to reduce noise and
interference even when the cable is long. This reduces audio disruptions
resulting from surrounding electromagnetic interference.
BFCP (Binary Floor
Control Protocol)
BFCP is a protocol which coordinates shared videoconference features in
SIP calls, often used by one participant at a time. For example, when
sharing content to others in the meeting, one participant is designated as
the presenter, and is granted the floor for presenting. All endpoints must be
aware that the floor was granted to that participant and react appropriately.
Bitrate
Bitrate is the speed of data flow. Higher video resolutions require higher
bitrates to ensure the video is constantly updated, thereby maintaining
smooth motion. If you lower the bitrate, you lower the quality of the video. In
some cases, you can select a lower bitrate without noticing a significant
drop in video quality; for example during a presentation or when a lecturer
is speaking and there is very little motion. Bitrate is often measured in
kilobits per second (kbps).

Cascaded
Videoconference
A cascaded videoconference is a meeting distributed over more than one
physical Scopia

Elite MCU, where a master MCU connects to one or more
slave MCUs to create a single videoconference. It increases the meeting
capacity by combining the resources of several MCUs. This can be
especially useful for distributed deployments across several locations,
reducing bandwidth usage.
CIF
CIF, or Common Intermediate Format, describes a video resolution of 352 ×
288 pixels (PAL) or 352 x 240 (NTSC). This is sometimes referred to as
Standard Definition (SD).
Conference Point The Avaya Scopia
®
Streaming and Recording Conference Point is a video
conferencing gateway appliance that captures standard or high definition
video conferences. It transcodes, creates, and records the video
conferences in a streaming media format. You can use it to capture H.323
video for instant video webcasting or on-demand publishing.
