Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Telepresence provider, Tandberg, has released to the market what it claims is ‘breakthrough technology’ with its Unified Communications gateway which enables Microsoft Office Communicator users to experience high definition video quality when connecting to standards based systems.
Tandberg claims it is first company to transcode
from Microsoft's Real Time Video (RTV) codec, to the industry standard
H.264 video codec, and bring “absolute video quality to everyone, from
the Microsoft desktop user to telepresence suite participants.”
According to industry analyst at Wainhouse Research, Brent Kelly, "by
strengthening interoperability with Microsoft and continuing to invest
in their partnership,” Tandberg is sending a “clear signal that the
company has no intention of slowing its efforts to advance its vision
of an open community of video users.
"The UC Gateway is a critical development for enabling video users to
connect in the best HD quality no matter where they are or what network
they're on, helping to bring value to customers and drive further
adoption of video conferencing."
Tandberg CEO, Fredrik Halvorsen boasts that “Tandberg is breaking down
the barriers to widespread video adoption and creating a
standards-based video community where no one is out of reach.
"This Unified Communications Gateway innovation reflects our dedication
to integration with Microsoft and illustrates our video-first approach
to unified communications. We are connecting communication islands and
delivering value to customers that goes beyond travel reduction - we
are transforming the way people work at a pace unmatched in the
industry."
Tandberg says the solution will be available for purchase in the first half of 2010.
