[AG-TECH] GT1524 for Telco Bridge

[Natalia Costas Lago]

We havent used so far (just some test) but, as I understood:

Telco is one input/output of the XAP/AP matrix. So the site that receives 
the call will forward it's mics audio mixed with the telco input to remote 
sites and, on the other hand, the audio coming from remote places is sent to 
the speakers and to the telco. That means.. that the nodes that bridges the 
call sends it's audio mixed with the call's audio (u'll see the caller as a 
participant from that node)

Any of the participants that owns an XAP can introduce the call into the 
conference, but it is good that only one of the participants use this 
procedure (i recall have read that somewhere).

I hope I made myself clear.

Regards,
Natalia.
