designing Cisco Video conferencing solution

[ahmed.waqas]

Hi All,

I need to design a single site Cisco IP Video Conferencing soultion which should support web, chat, ISDN and email etc support.

there will be one conferencing room which will be communicating with other remote or traving users.

the requirement is that remote or travelling users should be able to have the video conferencing facility with the Headoffice(single site) and vise versa.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Regards,

Waqas

I would recommend Cisco unified presence server for your deployment with MPX. That will give you chat, voice and video conferencing. If you dont use MPX then you can only do point-to-point video CUPS on its own doesnt support video conferencing.

YOu can also intergrate with exchange to view meetings and unity to listen to voicemails.

You can use VTA for the remote clients and 7985 for central site or some sort of tanberg phone if you want a larger screen.

The remote users are going to have to have a pretty low latency connection to get good quality video/voice.

Does this require that all users have IP phones and/or extensions in CUCM? Or can Presence server work independently of CUCM?

Yes this would require users to have phones registered in call manager if they want to use presence. Presence will not work with out call manager.
