When deployed with the Cisco Unified Videoconferencing Manager application, Cisco
Unified Videoconferencing enhances the collaboration capabilities of Microsoft Office
Communicator and Lotus Sametime by adding support for standards-based,
multiparticipant video. Microsoft Office Communicator and Lotus Sametime users can
initiate impromptu video communications with other Microsoft Office Communicator and
Lotus Sametime users and with any video solution that can connect to Cisco Unified
Videoconferencing, including Cisco TelePresence Systems.
Scalable Solution that Uses an Intelligent Network
Each Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3515 MCU is a self-contained, preconfigured, high-
performance appliance that provides audio and video processing for small to medium-sized
conferences. You can deploy the solution with the Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3522 and
Unified Videoconferencing 3527 Gateway appliances, which allow ISDN H.320 endpoints to
participate in the same conferences as IP-based H.323, SCCP, or SIP endpoints, providing
investment protection for existing video conferencing deployments. Readily deployable at remote
network sites, the Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3515 MCUs also work with the Cisco Unified
Videoconferencing 3545 Systems at larger sites to provide a distributed video environment that
optimizes WAN bandwidth usage for geographically dispersed organizations while preserving
solution performance and quality of the user experience.
Video conferencing deployments with the Cisco Unified Videoconferencing 3515 MCU require the
presence of an H.323 gatekeeper in the video network to provide functions such as telephone
number-to-IP address resolution and zone bandwidth management for video conferencing
endpoints. Based on Cisco IOS
®
Software, the Cisco IOS Gatekeeper product runs on a wide
variety of Cisco integrated services routers. The Cisco Unified Border Element, also a Cisco IOS
Software product, can enhance a video conferencing deployment by providing session-border-
control services, quality-of-service (QoS) functions, and enhanced security with firewall traversal
capabilities, all of which allow you to extend your video conferencing capabilities beyond your
network to partner and customer networks, or even to video endpoints using the public Internet.
Advanced Solution Management, Desktop Video, and Streaming: Cisco Unified
Videoconferencing Manager
Cisco Unified Videoconferencing Systems can be managed as standalone devices or with the
Cisco Unified Videoconferencing Manager, which helps organizations of all sizes use their video
