• Cameras (to capture and send video from your local endpoint)

• Microphones (to capture and send audio from your local endpoint)
• Speakers (to play audio received from remote endpoints)

Modes Of A Web and Video Conference:

Why Not Use Skype For Your Video Conferencing Needs?

Many companies in Shropshire may think Skype is a better and easier video conferencing and web conferencing alternative and much cheaper. However there are many limitations with Skype.

Skype cannot do this. The Avaya Scopia video conferencing software solution is built entirely on the H.239 protocol so allows full data interoperability.
• Skype is not a scalable video conferencing software solution. Shropshire Avaya Scopia video / web conferencing for business is very scalable since it is built on H.239.

• Skype is limited to 10 users. The Avaya Scopia video conferencing software solution allows up to 28.
