2009) - TANDBERG [http://www.tandberg.com?elq=3Dfeff94c8c26c4bc6b8d448061995c1cb]=
(OSLO: TAA.OL) today introduced the industry’s first large scale provisioning=
solution that allows enterprises to quickly and efficiently deploy TANDBERG=
E20 [http://www.tandberg.com/personal-video-conferencing/video-voip-E20.jsp?elq=3Dfeff94c8c26c4bc6b8d448061995c1cb]=

PC video conferencing to thousands of employees in minutes. Utilizing newly=
introduced features for the TANDBERG Management Suite [http://www.tandberg.com/video-telepresence-management.jsp?elq=3Dfeff94c8c26c4bc6b8d448061995c1cb]=
(TMS), the scalable solution is designed to reduce the cost of ownership=
by eliminating the time involved in setting up individual devices across=
large or geographically dispersed organizations. =0D=0A”Demand for personal=
video conferencing in the enterprise is growing faster than any other part=
of the video communications market,” said Scott Morrison, Research Vice=
President, Enterprise Network Services, Gartner. “But IT departments are=
wary of the impact of deploying and supporting so many end-user devices.=
The ability to centrally provision - and re-provision - on a large scale=
is a key concern for organizations looking to reduce the cost of both the=
initial setup and of ongoing moves, adds and changes in these mass deployments.=
This becomes even more important for organizations with large numbers of=
remote workers, where end-user install can avoid the cost of a truck roll.”=
=0D=0ATraditional video phone deployments can require administrators to=
spend significant time and resources on planning and logistics, as well=
as an average of 30 minutes per device; multiply that by thousands, and=
businesses are faced with an immense resource burden that drives up IT=
costs substantially. Large scale provisioning enables organizations of=
all sizes to deploy out of the box video conferencing solutions that can=
be provisioned rapidly and scaled based on enterprise need. This enhances=
the cost savings promise of visual communications and significantly eases=
mass deployment of video.=0D=0ATANDBERG’s unique provisioning solution=
- made possible through a software upgrade to the TANDBERG Management Suite=
- can be deployed in three easy steps thanks to seamless integration through=
the TANDBERG Video Communication Server [http://www.tandberg.com/video-conferencing-network-infrastructure/video-communication-server.jsp?elq=3Dfeff94c8c26c4bc6b8d448061995c1cb]:=

Dahle, TANDBERG Chief Technologist. “Through our large scale provisioning=
solution, TANDBERG is the first to provide the foundation for a massively=
scalable and easily deployable enterprise video communications infrastructure.=
