Summary
 | The deployment and use of videoconferencing within the enterprise continues to increase. As more locations and people become "video ready," it is reasonable to conclude that the demand for multipoint video meetings (i.e. meetings involving three or more locations) will continue to rise.
The most common way to conduct a multipoint video meeting is for each participating video system (meeting room, desktop, etc.) to connect to a single bridging device called a multipoint video bridge or MCU. |
Until recently, owning and operating a multipoint video bridge was too expensive to justify and technically too complex to manage for many organizations. In the last few years, several manufacturers have released video bridges designed specifically for the enterprise market at price points low enough to yield an extremely high ROI for many organizations.
This white paper, sponsored by
