Cisco Systems unveiled a new video telephony solution with significant conferencing, security and system migration enhancements. The new capabilities, which are based on the latest release of the Cisco IP PBX (CallManager 4.0), allows real-time, person-to-person video sessions to be added transparently to telephone calls. The solution integrates a Cisco IP Phone with an associated personal computer and web cam. It interoperates with multiple new and existing desktop and room-based videoconferencing systems. Cisco also introduced the new Cisco MeetingPlace 8106 Rich-Media Conferencing Server, which delivers converged IP voice, video and web conferencing using technology from Cisco's recent acquisition of Latitude Communications. http://www.cisco.com 18-Feb-04 |
