Private & Secure Video Conferences
When booking a private and secure video conference you will be asked what cities/endpoints you wish to connect to. If you will be connecting to a system outside the CFGT video conference network you will be asked which site should initiate the connection. If your location initiates the call you will be provided with our IP address. If the remote city initiates the call we will provide our IP address.
Conducting a test connection a day or two in advance of the conference is highly recommended and will be conducted without charge. If you wish to broadcast a computer presentation we highly recommend the presenter participates in the test call with their laptop connected. If you are unfamiliar with our facilities we suggest arriving 5-10 minutes prior to the video conference start time to become familiar with the system capabilities.
