I.1 SwyxServer as a Conference Server
Swyx is ideally suited to function as a Conference server for an existing telecommunications system in the company. In this way, an existing, classical telecommunication system can be expanded to include a modern conference server functionality and later be completely replaced with a VoIP telecommunication system, without compromising any of the investments that have already been made. The existing Swyx now has to be extended with the corresponding number of users and channel licenses, if necessary.
Requirements
If you would like to equip the conference room with extended functions such as authentication of the conference participants via PIN, you will need the Swyx option pack 'Extended call routing'.As your Enreach distribution partner from whom you have purchased your Swyx or send your questions per email to presales@swyx.com.
Swyx is operated on several internal BRI or PRI connections of the existing telecommunication system to be extended, depending on the capacity required. The classical telecommunication system must support the Euro-ISDN signaling protocol on these ports (or Q.Sig on an internal BRI ).
Please note that you will need one B channel per conference participant, which means that to hold two three-person conferences at the same time, you will need six channels or three BRIs, for example.
Installation
Install Swyx as a sub-telecommunication system (D.2 Connection of SwyxWare as Sub-telecommunication System on a Main Telecommunication System).
Make certain that conference participant is set up correctly and assign him an additional number if necessary (11.9 Conference).
Configuration
The necessary configurations can be differentiated in the configuration of the telecommunication system, which takes precedence over the Swyx, and in the configuration of the Swyx.

External subscribers can reach the conference room per direct dial or by transferring the call from telephone in the telecommunication system.
If the number of conference participants equals the number of available SwyxGate channels, additional subscribers who would like to dial into the conference will receive a busy signal.
