This past week I had a few minutes to spare while in New York City so I went to the Wall Street location of Extreme Video Solutions to see a demo of their technology in action. You may recall I wrote about this video conferencing company a while back.

 

Making a call was as easy as pointing a remote control at the MCU and pressing a few buttons. The video and full duplex sound quality was great.

 

The codec box allows myriad devices to be plugged in from a PC for a PowerPoint presentation to a DVD recorder.

 

Although the company will be releasing some new features in a few weeks I am not at liberty to disclose them at this time. What I can tell you is the single 61” monitor has been replaced by two slightly smaller ones allowing you to see what your camera is transmitting, a PowerPoint or another point in the conference. Suffice it to say, TMCnet will have coverage as the company’s products and services evolve.
