Cisco TelePresence, first introduced in October 2006, is a range of products developed by Cisco Systems designed to link two physically separated rooms so they resemble a single conference room regardless of location. Cisco documented the Telepresence concept and implementation details in the book Cisco TelePresence Fundamentals,〔Szigeti, McMenamy, Saville, Glowacki, ''Cisco TelePresence Fundamentals'', Cisco Press, 2009, ISBN 978-1587055935〕 where the difference between Telepresence and the at this point in time prevalent Videoconferencing is defined as quality, simplicity, and reliability. == Products == These were the initial products: *CTS-3000 - Room system for 6 persons *CTS-1000 - Room system for 2 persons *CTMS - Multipoint collaboration network appliance that connected multiple room systems into a single conference *CTS-Man - Management application for integration with groupware, such as Microsoft Exchange which gives the system the ability to schedule meetings〔(TelePresence Manager Information - Cisco Systems )〕 They were designed for an experience to feel as if local and remote participants are in the same room.〔(Cisco TelePresence System 3000 Series )〕 These products offer features including up to three 1080p flat panel displays, special tables, microphones, speakers, cameras, collaboration interfaces and lighting.〔(Cisco's TelePresence Meeting does video meetings in ultra-HD - Engadget )〕 In 2008 Cisco reported to have sold about 2,000 rooms, with about another 250 non-revenue (internal and philanthropic) units installed. Later other products were developed that expanded the use-cases for smaller offices and Webex connectivity. In 2010 the Norwegian company Tandberg was acquired and the products got integrated into the Cisco portfolio. Currently there is a wide range of collaboration endpoints 〔(Cisco Collaboration Endpoint Overview )〕 and conferencing infrastructure products 〔(Cisco Conferencing Overview )〕 offered. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cisco TelePresence」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
