Using VOIP with Adobe Connect

[toc]

Does APAN provide other options other than VOIP?

APAN Did not purchase the license for integrated audio conferencing / teleconferencing, using Universal Voice or advanced telephony. 

Currently, APAN uses the out-of-the-box VOIP technology.

Are there any caveats with using VOIP?

Yes, when using VOIP not all participants have the required hardware such as speakers or a microphone. 

Can I utilize my own conference line with Adobe Connect sessions?

How can I obtain a DISA EAC Conference line?

If you would like more information on DISA's Enterprise Audio Conferencing (EAC) system, please see the links below.  However, APAN does not support DISA's EAC system.

Can I use computer audio AND the conferencing line in combination? 

No.  This is limited by Adobe Connect.  Currently, you can add a conference line and use audio through the conference line, or you can utilize the computer audio/microphone, but you cannot use both.  Due to Adobe's audio system limitations, when this feature is used, you can use the audio from the Conference Line.

Why would I want to utilize my own conference line while using Adobe Connect?

If you, or someone on your team, will be using computers with no audio or microphone capability, this may be a solution for you.

Do the same features work within Adobe Connect if I use a conference line?

Yes.  Most do; however, as with any system, we encourage you to TEST, TEST, TEST to ensure your expectations, and what you think you may able to will work for your meeting.
