Telecom Lead Asia: Radvision has launched its Scopia Elite 6000 Series multipoint control unit (MCU), enabling real-time video collaboration for enterprises.
The new Scopia Elite 6000 Series is the latest addition to the Elite Series MCU portfolio.
Main benefits of the new MCU from Radvision, an Avaya company, include reduction in the cost per port for HD video conferencing by up to 50 percent, double the density and performance, and requirement of 75 percent less power than traditional hardware-based MCUs.
The Research and Education Advanced Network New Zealand Ltd (REANNZ) operates a high-speed, unrestricted broadband network for the New Zealand education, research and innovation communities.
REANNZ provides high-quality video conferencing services to organizations across the government and private sectors, and Scopia video conferencing is a valued solution at the core of network.
“We’ve been testing the new Scopia Elite 6000 Series MCU and find it to be an excellent, intuitive approach to offering mobile and desktop video conferencing for our members virtually anywhere, anytime, on any device and over our network,” said Desi Ramoo, Senior Member Engagement Specialist, REANNZ.
Radvision says the Scopia Elite 6000 Series MCU delivers high quality through 1080p60fps high definition video communication while minimizing the bandwidth requirements for HD video in a streamlined, easy to use and administer, cost-effective solution.
For end users, Scopia Desktop and Scopia Mobile, both of which are supported on the Elite 6000 Series MCU, enable one-click-to-video and an intuitive interface for video conferencing on-the-go. Participants can moderate a call, share content, record and stream and even choose individual layouts featuring up to 28 on-screen participants.
Scopia Elite MCUs are interoperable with standards-based telepresence systems including those from LifeSize, Polycom, and Cisco/Tandberg.
