Cisco TelePresence over Satellite Networks
The Cisco TelePresence over Satellite Networks solution extends the reach of Cisco TelePresence to
remote, tactical locations where terrestrial bandwidth is not available. This solution incorporates
existing Cisco TelePresence endpoint and infrastructure products with new software releases designed
to function more effectively on poor, high-delay networks.
The following features and benefits are supported:
•
Relaxed latency, jitter, and packet-loss thresholds allow the Cisco TelePresence meeting application
to function effectively over poor, high-delay, real-world satellite networks.
•
Qualification and testing of Type 1 encryption devices with the Cisco TelePresence application
enable military-grade security for Cisco TelePresence calls.
•
New network and environment recommendations provide guidance for remote, tactical, and even
mobile deployments of the Cisco TelePresence System (CTS).
