Unified Personal Communicator, Microsoft Office Communicator, and Lotus Sametime. Providing a
single video infrastructure solution for a broad range of devices and access methods helps simplify
the user experience and system management, facilitating effective video communications and a
lower total cost of ownership (TCO).
High-Performance, Flexible Solution: Optimized Experience for All
The Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3515 MCU uses a powerful hardware design with flexible
processing capabilities to provide an exceptional user experience that is also scalable and cost-
effective. The products are specifically designed to meet the needs of today’s heterogeneous
video environments by maintaining HD quality for HD endpoints while simultaneously providing
highly scalable SD and desktop video conferencing.
●
HD conferencing: Connections to HD-capable endpoints are fully processed, delivering full-
screen voice-activated switching in HD, full interoperability with SD endpoints in the same
conference, and continuous-presence features displayed at full HD quality. The HD
services run simultaneously on the MCU with both the high-quality and high-capacity SD
video services, automatically providing the optimal experience and capacity for the entire
spectrum of video users and deployments.
●
High-quality SD video conferencing: Every port has dedicated encoders, and the system
automatically implements transcoding and connection-speed transrating so endpoints can
connect to any conference, at any supported bit rate, with any supported audio or video
codec, at any supported resolution, and with any screen layout. This approach helps
ensure an optimal experience for each participant. The encoder-per-port hardware
architecture also significantly reduces planning, provisioning, and scheduling requirements
by eliminating the need to define or limit the bit rates, video formats, and conference
features.
●
High-capacity SD video conferencing: The Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3515 MCU has
the flexibility to redistribute processing resources. If available bandwidth is not fully used,
the number of available ports automatically increases, making the solution highly cost-
effective for desktop video and video telephony deployments.
Extensive Features that Provide Meeting Control and Flexible Video Presentation
The Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3515 MCU offers two modes of video display: voice-
activated video selection and continuous presence. The H.239 standard is also fully supported,
allowing conference participants to share content in real time. The solution provides extensive
conference-management functions. Users and conference moderators can control the meeting
from a web-based user interface, a dual tone multifrequency (DTMF) interface from video
endpoints or standard phones, or video endpoint remote controls. For example, the conference
moderator can lock the conference as well as add, mute, or disconnect participants. Having
access to these integrated controls improves meeting effectiveness, particularly in large video
conferences or educational environments.
Integrated Unified Communications and Rich-Media Conferencing Solution
The Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3515 MCU is integrated with the Cisco Unified
Communications System to enable multiple video environments and usage scenarios, including
impromptu conferences that you can initiate from desktop communications clients and phones;
collaborative conferences that integrate voice, video, and web conferencing; and traditional
multilocation video conferencing. You can easily transition across and between applications, such
