Group Video System
Lucent’s Group Video System turns a telephone call into a face-to-face meeting
for conducting business with people across the country or around the world.
Lucent’s line of Group Video Systems, based on the PictureTel Group Video Line
(System 1000, 4000, Venue 2000
™ and Concorde 4500™), is designed to
assure that your video conferences are the most effective possible.
A Group Video System can connect directly to your DEFINITY ECS system or to
the network at speeds from 112 Kbps up to 384 Kbps. When connected to your
DEFINITY ECS via either Data Communication Protocol ports or a DS1 interface,
video calls are placed as easily as voice calls. And you can benefit by using your
DEFINITY ECS’s World Class Routing capabilities and the shared use of network
facilities such as ACCUNET Switched Digital Services or Software Defined Digital
Network.
Group Video Systems are totally self-contained and include a pan/tilt/zoom cam-
era, a monitor, the control unit, communications equipment, and the equipment
electronics. You can easily add peripheral equipment such as video cassette
recorders to record the conference, document scanners to review hard-copy
material with distant participants, and personal computers to supply spread-
sheets or other computer-based conveniences.
You can equip any office or conference room with a Group Video System. Confer-
ees can speak and act naturally without thinking about audio and video pickup.
Advanced video-compression technology ensures excellent picture quality
across a variety of available speeds (112 to 768 Kbps). The system adapts auto-
matically to room acoustics, and a unique, audio-compression algorithm yields
distortion-free, full-duplex, interactive video without echo. A highly-sensitive
microphone is built into the control unit, and if necessary, conferees can use up
to four auxiliary desktop and/or lapel microphones.
