and it will not connect, thereby preventing the caller from seeing or 

hearing you at your desk.

You can use your VSX system to participate in multipoint conferences. 

Multipoint conferences include multiple video sites and can also include 

voice-only sites.
During a multipoint call, a multipoint conferencing unit (MCU) enables the 

video to switch to the various sites so that you can see and hear the other 

conference participants.
The VSX 3000, VSX 3000A, VSX 7000, VSX 7000s, VSX 7000e, and VSX 8000 

systems can have internal MCUs and can host multipoint calls. These systems 

can also use the Conference on Demand feature of Polycom’s Path Navigator 

for multipoint calling. The VSX 5000, VSX 6000, and VSX 6000A systems do 

not have an internal MCU. They can participate in multipoint calls but cannot 

host them.
Depending on your VSX system model, you may need to enter a multipoint 

option key to enable multipoint calling.

Before placing multipoint calls, you may need to enter a multipoint option key. 

A five-minute multipoint trial is available.
For information about purchasing the multipoint call option, please contact 

your Polycom distributor.

Go to System > Admin Settings > General Settings > Options.

Select the Enable Multipoint Trial checkbox to allow five-minute 

multipoint calling without the multipoint option key.
