While Clearspan integration offers considerable value for the audio-only client, the benefits are
even further expanded with the addition of video. First, the video codec negotiation is somewhat
more complicated than audio-only codec negotiation. Clearspan pre-integration limits the issues
associated with video codec negotiation, simplifying deployment and reducing support calls and
user issues. Second, pre-integration with the video client enables separate routing of voice streams
over traditional handsets while the video signal is connected to the video client. Thus, users can
enjoy features of their desk handsets such as a high-fidelity speakers and microphone, along with
the multimedia experience available from the desktop client.
