Extending room conferences to remote participants

12. The Challenge
Easily connect remote employees and external partners to your existing video network for voice video and data communications

13. 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?

14. Existing Solutions for Enterprise Conferencing
Use the phone
No video
Data collaboration optional but no integration to H.239
Use existing H.323 soft endpoints
Requires client purchase per user
No solution for random partner connection
Complex install and maintenance
Firewall issues
Limited collaboration tools

15. Existing Solutions for Enterprise Conferencing
Buy a ‘personal video system’ for key employees
Expensive – does not scale
Limited data collaboration options
No solution for partners
Firewall traversal issues

16. Remote Connection Requirements
No complex licensing fees
No complex installation issues
Firewall traversal
Data interoperability
Streaming for high scalability
