As pervasive Collaboration Solutions explode out of the boardroom and disrupt our workspace, we are challenged to provide cost effective and scalable conferencing solutions to accommodate these unprecedented levels of continuous growth. More so, the Enterprise is equally torn between how to efficiently deliver both ad hoc and scheduled Conferencing Solutions without oversubscribing their resource base. Cloud vs On-Prem solutions are equally an important factor to consider as part of the overall design. For more information please visit our website here: http://www.cisco.com/web/CA/index.html

What’s new XC2.3
New APIs
Capacity Management API *
• Allows management applications (such as Cisco TMS) to obtain information about a
conference and its associated resources.
• API returns information about the capacity of a conference bridge that will be used
for a conference with a given dialed alias.
Provisioning API
• Allows management applications (such as Cisco TMS) to configure conferences on
TelePresence Conductor.
• The API allows the client to create a new ConfBundle on the TelePresence
Conductor. A ConfBundle consists of a conference template with associated aliases
and auto-dialed participants, as well as a conference name.
*Conductor is not recommend for TMS scheduling till future software releases of TMS and Conductor
Today – We recommend TMS manage scheduled bridges directly, Conductor control separate ad hoc/rendezvous bridges

Basic Switching Behavior

Audio is instantaneously
switched in and heard from
the segment where the
video is located
After 2 seconds then the
segments swap
28. Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.T-CL-11-I Cisco Public
User Experience Improvements
ActivePresence Overflow - Switching
Segment in the overflow
speaks
Audio is instantaneously
switched in and heard from
the assigned segment
After 2 seconds:
– New active speaker
moves to main display
– Least active speaker
replaces the least active
speaker in active
presence
– Least active speaker
moves to overflow
AP Overflow
29. Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.T-CL-11-I Cisco Public
Customers love the value of the
filmstrip but do not like the
amount of movement as speakers
change and don’t like having to
look around for where participants
are
Placeholders provides a more
consistent predictable filmstrip

34. Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.T-CL-11-I Cisco Public
What’s new TS 4.0
Scalability Improvements (continued)
Resource Optimization Improvements
TS 3.0 and TS 3.1 uses endpoints maximum resolution advertised
TS 4.0 introduces a new method that compares the resources required for a
particular call based on two aspects of the endpoint's advertised capabilities; the
maximum resolution (TS 3.x) and the receive bandwidth.
Optimization Profile Value Description
maximizeEfficiency Screen licenses are conserved aggressively. This value gives the most calls for the available resources.
favorEfficiency This is a balance of efficiency and experience that favors conserving screen licenses over attempting to
grant the requested resolution.
favorExperience Default. This is a balance of efficiency and experience that favors granting the requested resolution over
conserving screen licenses.
maximizeExperience Screen licenses are more readily allocated. This value gives the best experience of the four profiles.
If you disable the optimization by bandwidth (by setting optimizationProfile to capabilitySetOnly), calls
will be capable of higher resolutions at lower bandwidths but the inefficency in allocation could well
outweigh the benefit.
capabilitySetOnly This is the behavior of TelePresence Server 3.1.

Design Guidelines
Conferencing design guidelines must be viewed through 1 of 3 deployment
lens:
– Existing VCS Deployment
– Existing CUCM Deployment
– Greenfield Deployment
Audio & Video Conferencing resources can begin to be consolidated
Physical, Virtual, or Hybrid deployments options available
Redundancy should be implied to align with LoB SLAs
Leveraging Flexible Resources should be an integral part of the design
Recommendations are continuously evolving based on ongoing release cycles
Alignment to Preferred Architecture and supported deployment scenarios
should be considered independent of one another

CUWL-Pro users will be entitled to:
– Named host, four-party conferences for video and audio with content sharing
– Flexible service levels from 360p to HD 720p30
– Enables users with a personal ad hoc/rendezvous conference
