Product Overview
Cisco
®
Unified Communications Solutions enable collaboration so that organizations can quickly adapt to market
changes while increasing productivity, improving competitive advantage through speed and innovation, and
delivering a rich-media experience across any workspace, securely and with optimal quality.
Cisco Unified Videoconferencing is a flexible, high-definition (HD) video conferencing solution that lets organizations
easily conduct face-to-face discussions in multiparty virtual meetings (Figure 1). The solution supports a broad range
of video endpoints from high-definition (HD) and Cisco TelePresence™ systems to standard-definition (SD) clients
and Cisco WebEx
meetings. Cisco Unified Videoconferencing includes multipoint control units (MCUs),
management software, desktop video capabilities, and ISDN gateways so you can efficiently manage and scale
video resources and extend the reach of your video environment.
Cisco Unified Videoconferencing helps organizations promote effective communication and collaboration by allowing
people to meet at anytime from anywhere without the expense and inefficiencies of travel. Organizations can
conduct efficient education and training programs that extend beyond the campus environment. Doctors can consult
specialists from any part of the world to provide the best care for their patients. Organizations can build trust and
stronger relationships with remote staff and customers through more frequent face-to-face communications while
lowering expenses and enabling carbon-reduction initiatives.

Main Features and Benefits
Scalable High Definition Video Delivering The Highest Quality Experience for All Participants
Cisco Unified Videoconferencing takes advantage of state-of-the-art hardware processing capabilities to provide an
exceptional user experience for all participants. The solution fully processes all connections to deliver the highest
video resolution (up to1080p*), frame rate, connection speed, and codec support. The HD encoder per-port
architecture provides a unique video stream to each connected endpoint and allows HD continuous presence for all
conferences, without any reduction in capacity. Designed for today's heterogeneous video environments, the solution
provides full transcoding and connection speed transrating such that HD and SD 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 design simplifies planning, provisioning, and scheduling requirements.
