Leading global telepresence provider Tandberg has introduced the new server model TS 7010 – a compact telepresence bridge that offers even greater flexibility and interoperability for the region’s telepresence customers.

A compact version of the award-winning chassis-based Tandberg Telepresence Server, the TS 7010 is a powerful solution that enables high-definition, multi-vendor, multi-screen telepresence calls for entry-level customers and remote offices.

Telepresence is expected to be a $1.4billion industry by 2013, as business leaders continue to look for ways to transform their organizations, reduce costs and increase collaboration.

By enabling telepresence interoperability with standards-based video conferencing and third party telepresence systems, Tandberg seeks to grow the telepresence market through true B2B communication.

Recently designated as 2009 Telepresence Provider of the Year by European CEO magazine, the Tandberg solution was called “The benchmark for enterprise-wide Telepresence deployment” with its outstanding product design and ability to interoperate with third-party telepresence products.

At the heart of this interoperability is the telepresence server portfolio, which now includes the TS 7010.

”The TS 7010 is one more example of Tandberg leading the industry in delivering superior telepresence solutions that support the highest level of interoperability available,” said Hakon Dahle, chief technologist, Tandberg.

'Customers need solutions that bring their employees, customers and suppliers together.  They will no longer accept the limitations of proprietary systems that lock out other vendors’ systems and prohibit open collaboration.'

'Tandberg has overcome this barrier, which is key for successful B2B communications and maximizing the value of telepresence investments,' he added.-TradeArabia News Service
