Enterprise Portal: Setting up a Collaborate Bridge

What you need to know

The Collaboration Bridge is a unique two-way phone number and must be configured in the Enterprise Portal. Each site has a unique Collaboration Bridge two-way phone number assigned to it and all users within the site have the same Collaboration Bridge number.

  • Each User that is assigned to the Collaboration Bridge has a unique Room ID, which is used to initiate My Room sessions.
    • Calls within the My Room feature will not process if there is not a phone number assigned to the Collaboration Bridge.
    • Users that have been assigned the Premium package, or the Collaboration Bundle as an add-on, will have the ability to use this feature.
    • A moderator pin is not required for this feature; only the Room ID is required.
    • There can be multiple private My Room sessions running concurrently, each with a combined total of 15 audio and video participants.

This article provides details on the Collaborate Bridge feature, which is a site service that allows users to initiate calls from the My Room feature of their UC-One applications. This article provides instructions for assigning the Collaboration Bridge two-way number and viewing the Room ID numbers associated with the users that have been assigned the Collaboration Bundle.
