Audio/Video Conferencing
Audio Conferencing
There are several options available for audio-only conferences at Oregon Tech.
For three-way calling an analog telephone may be used. There is no extra charge for this type of conference.
For a conference of up to 6 people, from a digital telephone the user can add up to 5 connections for a total of 6. There is no extra charge for this type of conference.
In the event that a conference requires more than 6 connections, a MeetMe conference can be scheduled through the OUS system. Requests for these services must be recieved by Oregon Tech Telecommunications within in 3-7 days of the conference to ensure time for setup. Pricing for MeetMe conferences can be seen below. The rates below are a flat rate regardless of the time length for the conference.
Audio Conference Pricing:
| Base Rate (attendee pays long distance) | $15/connection |
| Toll Free (1-800 type connection) | $18/connection |
If all conference ports are not used, for example, if 10 ports are requested and only 9 ports are used, a request for credit on unused ports must be recieved within 24-36 hours of the conference. In such a case, OUS will not bill for the unused ports.

We need at least three days notice to setup a video conference. Since facilities are limited, video conferencing is scheduled on a first come first serve basis.
