  • Hi,

    The Mediation role is an essential component in any scenario involving Enterprise voice, so you must include it in your PBX integration plan.

    Depending on your exact PBX model and software, and exact design + requirements, a media gateway might also be necessary.

    Note that in theory, you may collocate the mediation role with your existing Lync 2010 front-end server(s). Collocation might be advisable or not, depending on capacity planning like number of users to support, and expected simultaneous calls.

  • Make ur FE as mediation server,

     Mediation Server handles calls between Enterprise Voice users and the PBX. If your PBX is an IP-PBX, you can create a direct SIP connection between the PBX and Mediation Server. If your PBX is a Time Division Multiplex (TDM) PBX, you must also deploy a PSTN gateway between Mediation Server and the PBX.

  • Hi,

    The Mediation role is required for Lync Enterprise Voice even only for Internal network.

    Mediation Server translates signaling and, in some configurations, media between your internal Lync Server VoIP infrastructure and a public switched telephone network (PSTN) gateway or a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) trunk. Mediation Server also handles calls between Enterprise Voice users and the PBX.
