About the mm146 and mm156 IP videophones
The mm146 and 156 IP videophones offer a major advance in video over broadband
and corporate IP networks. Designed specifically for non-QoS IP connections, this
attractive system is as easy to use as a telephone, but offers a wide range of
capabilities.
With the mm146 videophone you can:
1. Make toll-free videophone calls over the Internet.
2. Make group conferencing video calls using an external camera and TV.
3. Make multipoint conference calls using an external MCU.
4. Make calls to or audio conference ISDN videophones, regular phones and
mobiles using an external gateway.
With the mm156 you can additionally:
1. Make calls to or audio conference regular phones and mobiles over a regular
telephone line.
2. Make video calls over a regular telephone line
Unique technology
mm146 and mm156 videophones offer a range of unique features that improve the
user and administrator experience
Motion Media’s Packet Buddy protocol
1. Intelligently adapts to the available bandwidth over the Internet,
2. Recovers lost packets
3. Synchronises video and audio to provide excellent lip-sync.
Simplified installation
1. The IP videophones support DHCP and PPPoE protocols, allowing automatic
configuration of the core IP information.
2. The Packet Buddy Protocol uses a single UDP port to make a video call
instead of the 6+ ports used by an H323 device. This allows outgoing calls to
be made with little or no firewall configuration.
Reduced infrastructure costs
1. When first using mm146 and 156 videophones no dedicated video infrastruc-
ture (e.g. H.323 aware firewalls, gatekeepers, QoS Internet services, etc.) is

5
Introduction & Getting Started
required. This means you can experience the benefits of video without an
extensive and costly implementation phase.
2. Moving forward, mm146 and mm156 videophones also support the H.323
protocol, so can adapt to future infrastructure changes, and interoperate with
equipment from other vendors.
Enhanced video calls
A range of features give the user greater flexibility when in a call. These include:
1. Full-duplex Acoustic Echo Canceller for pause-free hands-free audio confer-
ences with no clipping.
2. Digital zoom
3. Image control (faster/sharper)
4. Local and remote audio and video source selection in call
5. Brightness control
6. Adjustable PiP
7. Freeze frame option
8. PIN authentication for security
Improved ease of use
1. Video and audio calls from one phone (mm156)
2. Fallback to PSTN (mm156)
3. Central phonebook facility
4. Built-in 10/100 hub allowing a PC to share your videophone connection
5. Physical camera cover for complete privacy
