Streaming Scenarios

A Mitel 6800/6900 SIP terminal (or later model) can support streaming if appropriately configured.

To run the ‘Streaming/Music on idle’ (MOI) feature, a media server and specific SW in the MX-ONE Service Node needs to be present. The used SIP terminals must also support the functions. The media server and its interfaces must be initiated and active. The ‘streaming on idle’ feature or the other streaming cases do not require any specific license.

This streaming functions are realized by ordering SIP terminals to listen to an existing media stream or to set up a stream, and then order terminals to listen to it. The stream is set up to always go via a ‘media server’.

The stream is either dynamic, i.e. set up at terminal button push, or static, terminal is ordered to listen to an already existing stream, normally using Multicast. The connection will be as follows:

---- server input --->| media server |----server output--->> (SIP Terminal)

In the following figure, the SIP terminals on the right hand side get media streamed via the Media Server.
