BONDING*
BONDING is one of the Inverse
Multiplexing methods allowing connection
of the videoconferencing system using
multiple ISDN lines. Dialing the first ISDN
line only enables you to connect all other
lines. Dialing the second and later lines is
automatically done by the communication
between the videoconferencing systems on
both sites. To use BONDING, it is required
that both videoconferencing systems are
equipped with the BONDING function and
that “Area Code” and “Local Number” in the
ISDN Setup menu on the answering site are
set correctly. As the communication
between the systems when using the
BONDING function is made via the ISDN
numbers on the answering site, setting of
“Area Code” and “Local Number” in the
ISDN Setup menu is not essential on the
dialing site.
