BlinkMind Video Trunking Solutions

What is Video Trunking?
BlinkMind’s SIP based Video Trunking solution instantly enables Carriers and Hosted Service Providers the ability of selling video conferencing solutions to their customers. We can interconnect with Carrier Call Processing Systems or IP PBXs, to establish video trunks. Once connected, the system simply listens for our conference bridge call pattern and then routes the traffic to our conferencing servers to establish the conference bridge. Now your customers can enjoy up to 16-person video conferences with little to no infrastructure changes.

Why Video Trunking?
SIP Video Trunking is a great way to differentiate yourself from your competitors in a market that continues to commoditize telephony services. Video Trunking allows you to offer a whole new product offering to your customer, that isn’t being offered today. Similar to SIP Trunks, you can oversubscribe the video trunks to create a lucrative service offering. Your customers now have an affordable video conferencing solution and you have a new and expanding revenue stream.

The BlinkMind Trunking Process

How SIP Trunking Works

Setting up Video Trunking in most cases is a simple four step process. Once the trunk is established, you can start selling service to your customers.

SIP Registration Capable Devices

Step 1: Survey
A brief interoperability survey would need to be completed to determine the appropriate settings required for your company’s infrastructure.

Step 2: SIP Credentials
BlinkMind will provide the SIP Credentials necessary to register to BlinkMind’s SIP Video Trunking service. These parameters are configured on the company’s IP PBX.

Step 3: Create Dial Plan
A dial plan unique to BlinkMind’s Bridge numbers should be created, so when the PBX sees the unique number, it properly routes the call to the BlinkMind Video Trunk.

Step 4: Validate Bandwidth
A video bridge uses at minimum 350kbps each way for each video conference participant. If you have 4 participants, you would need approx 1.4 Mbps to have a good quality call.

Step 5: Test
Once the trunk is established, BlinkMind’s engineering team will run through a series of test calls to ensure the service is functioning properly.
