The Cisco TelePresence Recording Server transforms Cisco TelePresence into a high-definition recording
studio. Using an intuitive user interface, you can create high-quality video to deliver rich, immersive messages
immediately for internal and external communications such as training or crisis management. Distributing and
viewing video content is easy, and you can replay recordings on Cisco TelePresence endpoints or on the web
on standard browser-based players.
Key Features
• High-definition recording—Videos are recorded in H.264 1080p high definition for playback on any Cisco
TelePresence system. You can immediately view recorded content or share recorded content with other
users of Cisco TelePresence endpoints.
• Standard-definition (SD) recording—Videos are simultaneously recorded in standard definition for playback
on standard browser-based video players such as Adobe Flash or Apple QuickTime.
• Autocollaboration support—You can record videos with full data presentations using the Cisco TelePresence
Auto Collaborate channel to capture the PC presentation as a separate video stream. You can then play this
stream back in concert with the high-definition video and audio to provide a fully synchronized presentation
that is viewable with standard PC browser-based viewers.
• Easy-to-use controls—All user controls for the Cisco TelePresence Recording Server are incorporated into
the Cisco TelePresence IP Phone interface. You can start, stop, pause, and play back recordings as well as
sharing them through email messages.
• Onscreen prompting—You are prompted onscreen during the recording session with features such as self-
view and data presentation displayed on the main monitor, allowing you to maintain eye contact with your
virtual audience.
• Public and private recordings—Videos can be public or private. For private recordings you must enter a
security PIN, similar to voicemail, in order to create and view these recordings. You can share private
recordings with people who would also be required to authenticate themselves before accessing the
recording.
Concurrent meetings
The total capacity of CTMS is 48 simultaneous video streams, with each plasma display
representing one video stream. This capacity can be divided into any number of meetings. For
example, with three Cisco TelePresence System 1000 endpoints per meeting, the switch
supports 16 concurrent meetings. The maximum number of concurrent meetings (with at least 2
Cisco TelePresence System 500 or Cisco TelePresence System 1000 endpoints) is 24.
