“Multiplatform” = “Multipoint”?
Not the same
Multiplatform speaks to the
different types of video
enabled devices that are
supported in a multipoint
call.
Becoming more important
as more video enabled
devices are introduced.

Network and Infrastructure
All endpoints within the
enterprise network
Multipoint is driving the requirement for
seamless connectivity between “private” and
“public” networks

Today’s MCU options – Standalone hardware
More capacity/compute power – software license to
open up additional capacity
Limited by finite capacity upgrades
Demands dedicated resources for management
CAPEX intensive
Limited update cycles
More options being added around:
Interoperability support
Firewall traversal/Border gateway

15
Today’s MCU options – Hybrid
Multi-tenant architecture and/or on-premises + cloud
hybrid model
Less CAPEX compared to standalone hardware option
Limits additional CAPEX with growth
Somewhat easier to use when used as a service
Dependencies
Capacity, performance and resiliency capped by the
underlying hardware

Today’s MCU options – Cloud
New technology - apprehension for some
SaaS - Software as a Service
Limited OPEX and almost no CAPEX
Scale as you grow
Wider interoperability options through software
Globally accessible – being in the cloud
High availability – easy to build redundancy and failover
Faster update cycles – more agile
Self Service or IT Control options
Ease of use
