Manage the audio and video streams of the conference
Move users between active conferences
Customize individual layouts for online meeting participants
Close access to the online meeting by the link and set a PIN code to connect
Create layouts for all conference participants, user groups, or individual layouts for each participant! Change the location of windows on the fly and create dynamic slots for users who are actively talking or demonstrating content.
Record multiple layouts of an active conference simultaneously, with each layout being saved as a separate file.
Assign TrueConf MCU administrators and operators with scheduling capabilities, but without access to administrative functions.
Connect any existing SIP and H.323-compatible equipment of well-known brands to organize a multi-user video conferencing network.
View a detailed history of online meetings, including the time of connection and disconnection, as well as the reason for exiting the conference.
Direct SIP and H.323 participants in the waiting room to the necessary video conferences.
Assign conference participants to different audio streams, assigning a language for each of them. This will allow for the organization of online meetings with simultaneous translation, catering to users from different countries.
TrueConf MCU is fully compatible with TrueConf Server software platform, allowing you to conduct webinars, integrate with PBX, connect mobile devices to video meetings and much more!

Empower your video conferencing experience with cutting-edge capabilities of TrueConf MCU!
TrueConf MCU is easy to use and administrate, provides a free version, and offers built-in tools for streaming. Additionally, it supports hardware transcoding acceleration to increase MCU capacity.
The free version can be used for an unlimited period of time. The only requirement is to renew the free license on an annual basis and permanent connection to our registration server via 443 TCP port.
TrueConf MCU can be installed on Linux-based operating systems (Debian-family distributions, 64-bit).
No, offline operation is only available to the customers who acquired the full version of TrueConf MCU. If you’d like to get a trial version of TrueConf MCU that operates offline without Internet connection, please contact our sales team.
Multipoint Control Unit (MCU) is a video transcoding server that manages multiple SIP/H 323 endpoints simultaneously, coordinates data processing between them, and forwards media streams during a video communication session. MCUs can be either hardware or software deployed in a virtual environment.
Multipoint conference connects 3+ locations, e.g. meeting rooms, into a single video communication session, allowing all participants to interact and collaborate in real-time. With TrueConf multipoint calls, you can host engaging roundtable discussions for up to 36 on-screen users, exchange messages and files, share content, record sessions for future playback, and more.
There are four main architecture types of multipoint video communication systems:
• SFU (Selective Forwarding Unit). It is a traditional video conference based on media stream forwarding.
• Simulcast. It is based on parallel video streams forwarding that are redirected to meeting participants in a resolution that matches their bandwidth.
• SVC (Scalable Video Coding). It enables transferring multiple basic and secondary substreams of different quality into one stream to adjust to the varying endpoint characteristics, e.g. CPU or bandwidth.
• MCU (Multipoint Control Unit). This mixing-based architecture incorporates server-side data processing: upon gathering primary videos from all the participants, it creates a single media stream with the layout requested by the endpoint.
