Ideal for headquarters sites or large regional offices, the system allows large teams to meet and collaborate virtually using this solution when much of the team is in one physical location. With seating for up to 18 participants in a single room, the system delivers the same superior video and audio quality as the rest of the Cisco TelePresence portfolio. Applications for the Cisco TelePresence System 3200 include large team meetings, cross-functional team meetings, and training or classroom events. Cisco TelePresence can now scale to fit your organization's wide range of meeting needs today and into the future.

Applications

The Cisco TelePresence System 3200 is ideal for large group meetings with many participants in a single location, connecting to other satellite groups in remote locations. It provides an equal seat at the table for participants for applications such as operations reviews, status-update meetings, quarterly meetings with clients or partners, executive presentations, or meetings requiring staff to be present.

• Large teams: The seating capacity for up to 18 participants in a Cisco TelePresence System 3200 room allows the local team to meet in one physical room and use Cisco TelePresence technology to interact virtually with remote members of the team.

• Cross-functional groups: The extra seating capacity of a Cisco TelePresence System 3200 allows critical stakeholders from many organizations to participate in the Cisco TelePresence session. The attendance at many cross-functional meetings may vary widely, with many participants needed for critical decision points in a project. The extra capacity of a Cisco TelePresence System 3200 provides the flexibility needed for these events.

• Training: For corporate training and distance learning, the Cisco TelePresence System 3200 allows you to virtually bring in subject matter experts or guest lecturers from one or more remote locations. For such applications, the large room capacity of the Cisco TelePresence System 3200 along with the proven video and audio technology of the application brings the immersive, virtual meeting experience to larger venues and larger audiences.
