Video Conferencing Service
Video Conferencing Service
The ICT Office has a video conferencing service available to all staff.
The service is currently based in two permanent locations:
- A203b - Second floor of Library
- QN125 - IADT Boardroom
There is also a mobile unit which can be moved to any meeting room on campus.
This service is managed through the support@iadt.ie with in the ICT Office.
The both video conference systems are PolyCom systems and is based on the H.323 standard protocol, which is an IP based protocol. The permanent ones are high definition based system which gives users the very high video quality.
The H.323 protocol allows the video conferencing system to communicate with other video conferencing facilities around the World effectively for free for IADT staff, researchers and students due to it using the internet as the "carrier" as opposed to phone line based systems. All Institute of Technologies and Universities through Ireland have similar systems that are compatible with IADT’s system.
The system allows IADT to host video conferences with up to three other locations, if your requirements require more that three other locations IADT have access to a video conference bridge in HEAnet, which allow larger groups to video conference together.
To book this resource please email support@iadt.ie specifing date and time your require the service; it is also recommended that you also get contact details from your counterpart(s) technical support so a test can be performed before hand. Please note you must also book the room seperately.
Note: There is a minimum of three working days noticed for the use of this service. Video conferences that require the use of the HEAnet’s bridge require a minimum five working days notice.
