Roles and Responsibilities of a Site Administrator

Site Administrators are individuals who prepare and man the site for a satellite broadcast. They serve in the same basic role as a facilitator of a meeting or training session. You can read below what their responsibilities are, as well as on best custom writing service from https://bestwritingservice.com/ you can read a lot of tips and instructions on how to do better in certain cases, or how to properly write about certain phenomena. Their responsibilities include the following:

Visit / prepare the site.

This may include coordinating with the site contact, reserving the room, ensuring adequate chairs, ensuring a telephone, fax machine, or internet-enabled computer for submission of questions; posting viewing room location signs; and familiarizing yourself with the building (rest rooms, water fountains, fire escapes, etc.) You should arrive early to set things up each day of the broadcast.

Make preparations to receive the program signal.

This includes identifying who will program/operate the receiver equipment, how to contact your technician in the event that the equipment malfunctions, ensuring the equipment is checked during the signal test time and obtaining the satellite coordinates for the program. Satellite coordinates will be available approximately 30 days prior to the broadcast. Visit the Satellite Technical Specifications page for more information.

Have your site certified (Video Conferencing).

All Video Conferencing administrators are required to have their site certified, with the hosting site's bridge. The bridge (USAMISSA-SA VNC) imposes this equipment certification policy on all videoconference customers in order to protect the integrity of each conference.

  1. The certifying site is responsible for coordinating a test date and time for the video/audio equipment to be certified.
  2. During the call, the Bridge will verify maximum bandwidth capability, verify equipment compatibility, and gauge user familiarity with the equipment.
  3. When the equipment has been certified, the details will be entered in the USAMISSA-SA Video Phone Book, and the site will be available for scheduling in multi-point conferences.

NOTE: USAMRISSA handles reservations on a first-come-first-served basis. Once the available ports have been reserved, you may not be able to register your site for this viewing method.

To Get Certified

Download the Equipment Certification document, complete and either FAX or E-mail the USAMISSA-SA VTC BRIDGE CERTIFICATION form to the USAMISSA-SA Video Network Center. See forms for further instructions.
