Video Conferencing

The development of integrated IP Communications networks has opened new possibilities for the use of video in everyday business. A recent report from Frost and Sullivan predicts that the videoconferencing market is set to grow centred on IP based video, while the ISDN market share will reduce.

There are a number of technology and business drivers which are accelerating the deployment of video and the following is an example of some of those drivers:

• Companies are investing in high bandwidth QoS enabled IP capacity networks where video can be used without affecting the network performance in the rest of the business.

• The cost of deploying new technologies has reduced making it viable for smaller companies to deploy video.

• Users are becoming more familiar with video, following the launch of 3G mobile phones.

• The integration of video with desktop applications making it easy and accessible for users, including instant Video Conferencing.

• The development of intuitive, user-friendly web interfaces allowing conference management to be performed by end-users from their desktop.
