Cisco TelePresence combines high-quality audio, high-definition video, and interactive elements to deliver an in-person meeting experience over your network.
The overall Cisco TelePresence key consists of endpoints, management software, and multipoint switching capabilities, taking advantage of the reliability, quality, and security of the existing network infrastructure.
As globalization increases the need for communication among colleagues and partners, the likelihood increases that business discussions will include not just multiple people but also multiple locations.
In a nutshell, Cisco Telepresence is a new, advanced system that allows for video conferencing to be as real as face-to-face interaction. It is important because of the expansion of industries and businesses that are extending all over the world and the ability to communicate with workers in these places is vital.
Some advantages are that it eliminates many of the constraints that we are forced to deal with with other forms of global communication such as e-mail or instant messaging which are text-based. Some of these constraints include missing social cues such as facial expressions, reactions and tone of voice that are not available via text-based communication. It also enables you to expand your business to just about anywhere without having to worry about information or messages that you would send by e-mail being misinterpreted. Organizations can also use this if they have a big facility and face-to-face meets are inconvenient for people that have to meet woth eachother.
I would say that this technology would get a rating of 3 or 4 because it is not as common a technology as e-mail at this juncture. Perhaps within the next 5 years or so, Cisco TelePresence will regulary available to all organizations, businesses and people.
