For a conference with cascading for bandwidth enabled, the Polycom RealPresence DMA system uses the
site topology information to route calls to the nearest eligible MCU (based on pools and pool orders) that
has available capacity and to create the cascade links between MCUs.

When determining which MCU is “nearest” to a caller and which path is best for a cascade link, the system
takes into account the bandwidth availability and bit-rate limitations of alternative paths.

considered to be in the Internet/VPN site. They can register to a cluster only if site-less registrations are

Note: Cascade Considerations
Cascading for bandwidth uses a hub-and-spoke configuration so that each cascaded MCU is only one
link away from the “hub” MCU, which hosts the conference. The conference is hosted on the same
MCU that would have been chosen in the absence of cascading, using the pool order applicable to the
conference. See

The cascade links between MCUs must use H.323 signaling. For conferences with cascading
enabled, the Polycom RealPresence DMA system selects only MCUs that have H.323 signaling
enabled.
This cascade link requirement doesn’t affect endpoints, which may dial in using SIP (assuming the
MCUs and the Polycom RealPresence DMA system are also configured for SIP signaling).
