Visual Communications Beyond the Boardroom
Issues with existing ‘room centric’ implementation:
How do I make the video network more accessible ?How do I enable teleworkers to participate in meetings?How can road warriors join a videoconference ?How do I collaborate with partners and suppliers ?How do I effectively share presentations across rooms and PCs?How do I effectively manage PC video users?
Existing Solutions for Enterprise Conferencing
Use the phoneNo videoData collaboration optional but no integration to H.239
Use existing H.323 soft endpointsRequires client purchase per userNo solution for random partner connectionComplex install and maintenanceFirewall issuesLimited collaboration tools
Existing Solutions for Enterprise Conferencing
Buy a ‘personal video system’ for key employees
Expensive – does not scaleLimited data collaboration optionsNo solution for partnersFirewall traversal issues
Remote Connection Requirements
No complex licensing fees
No complex installation issues
Firewall traversal
Data interoperability
Streaming for high scalability
