Cisco TelePresence Server
Introduction

Cisco TelePresence® Server brings multiparty video to unified communications deployments. Its flexible video, audio, and content-sharing capabilities allow users to participate in video conferences with multiple parties. Users can easily create, launch, and join meetings using standards-based video endpoints. Or their mobile devices or Cisco WebEx® clients. Or even third-party video endpoints. The server provides high-quality, standards-based video conferencing for mobile, desktop, and room systems. This scalable video conferencing bridge works with Cisco Unified Communications Manager. For midmarket and larger enterprise customers, it works with Cisco TelePresence Conductor to offer cost-efficient conferencing. It also works with Cisco TelePresence Management Suite for conference booking, conference scheduling, and resource management.
