Videoconferencing brings people together for meetings without them having to be physically present in the same location. This saves travel time and costs, and facilitates more frequent contact with colleagues, partners, suppliers, and customers.

Benefits include: • Saves $ on travel
• Creates deeper understanding by revealing reactions & emotions
• Bridges language and cultural barriers with visual cues
• lluminates interactions within teams
• Enables presentations or documents to be shared

The minimum required components at each endpoint of a videoconference are a microphone, a camera, a codec, a monitor and a speaker. The camera and microphone capture the image and sound, the codec converts the video and audio into a digital signal, encodes it and sends it out. The codec at the other end decodes the signal and distributes the video and audio to the monitor and speaker. Top quality videoconferencing systems can provide additional features which enhance the video meeting.

Envision has been at the forefront of this technology, deploying both ISDN and IP based Videoconferencing systems from Lifesize and Tandberg , a leader in the industry. Our design team can help you select and implement the right solutions for your business.
