Format 
(in/out)
The video format for single-screen conferences: 
CIF
, 
QCIF, 
QCIF/CIF, H.CTS, H.CTX+
, and 
SG4
. 
non-H.261 conferences = input and output formats are always 
symmetric and the mode is the same for input and output. (H.CTX, 
H.CTX+, and SG4). 
H.261 mode non-continuous presence conferences = symmetric 
format (CIF and QCIF). 
Non-presentation, continuous presence conference in single-screen 
= symmetric format (CIF and QCIF).
Presentation mode H.261 single screen continuous presence capable 
conferences = symmetric input and output formats QCIF/CIF 
(displayed as CIF) or asymmetric QCIF/CIF, if the administered format 
is upgradable. 
For quad-screen conferences = the format is QCIF/CIF to reflect the 
QCIF input from all participants and output of CIF to all participants.
For presentation mode quad-screen conference = the format is 
QCIF/CIF to reflect the input/output of all participants except the 
presenter. In quad-screen mode, presenter input is always CIF.
FPS
The CIF frame rate (frames per second) - 
‘-‘, 30, 15, 10, 7.5
. FPS 
indicates the rate that endpoints can receive frames. The MCU cannot 
detect maximum transmit frame rates or current frame rates. Frame 
rates change due to the amount of motion in the input image.
QFPS
The ACIF frame rate (frames per second) (‘ 
-
 ‘, 
30
, 
15
, 
10
, 
7.5)
. The 
rate that an endpoint can generate/receive frames.
Quad-screen VAS conferences = QFPS reflects the highest common 
QCIF frame rate of all endpoints and the video mixer board rate, that 
is lower than the rest of the participants. QCIF calculation accounts for 
the highest common CIF frame rate declared by all conference 
participants, since the QCIF rate cannot be greater than that of the 
highest common CIF rate.
Quad-screen presentation conferences = QFPS reflects the highest 
common QCIF frame rate of all participants and the video mixer board 
rate. QFPS cannot be greater than the CIF frame rate that is 
announced by the presenter.
QFPS field is 
blank
 for proprietary modes.
lo/hi 
interworking
Does this conference support Low Speed/High Speed Interworking? 
This field defaults to 
n
. 
Type
The type of conferee — Audio/Video (
P64
), Audio Add-on (
AUD
), 
Cascade Link (
CAS
), BONDing Call (
BOND
), BONDing Cascade Link 
(
BCAS
), UCC Controller (
UCC
), or Dedicated Access (
DA
). BONDing 
calls use up to 12 channels to form a single multimedia pipe.
Ext
Administered endpoint extension. ( ).
