The traditional model of conducting meetings is falling by the wayside because the cost of video conferencing is now low enough to be a viable option for organizations of any size. Many of the benefits the technology offers can now be accessed to improve business communications and open new opportunities. While this was the domain of large enterprises in the past, SMB’s can now easily deploy the technology. One company that is making it more affordable is Yealink, a global unified communication (UC) terminal solution provider. The company has announced it will be showcasing its one-stop solution at InfoComm 2015 by debuting the VC110, the new all-in-one video conferencing endpoint.

One of the reasons for the increased adoption of video conferencing is the current collaborative environment in the workplace, as well as the introduction of smart mobile devices with video capability. This has made it possible for employees to conduct conferences on their mobile devices no matter where they are. The result has been new levels of efficiency and productivity, especially for small businesses with limited resources.

The entire line of Yealink conferencing solutions are designed to be compatible for seamless integration of mainstream IP-PBX (News - Alert), UC systems, cloud-based video conference service systems, Multipoint Control Unit and gatekeeper brands.

The VC110 is part of the VC line of the company’s video conferencing solution. According to Yealink (News - Alert), this particular unit has been designed for small meeting rooms in order to address the needs of SMBs.

While full details of the capabilities of the phone have not yet been released, some of the features of the VC line include:

• Maximum productivity for managers and executives with integrated intelligent features for ease of use
• Work within a company’s existing network infrastructure
• Customizable and expandable service features with simplified installation, upgrade and maintenance
• 18X optical PTZ camera for 4-site 1080P full-HD video conferencing with support for dual displays
• H.323 and SIP dual protocol supports
• HD voice: HD codec, HD handset, HD speaker

“With the new VC110, we are able to deliver a robust and economical one-stop video collaboration solution that is easy to deploy on any network and that offers video collaboration under any conditions,” he added. “We are confident that our solution and the new VC110 will resonate strongly with the market,” said Yealink Vice President Stone Lu (News - Alert).

The ability to carry face-to-face encounters is of great value, not only for business partners and colleagues, but also customers. As smartphones and tablets continue to increase in adoption, the technology they provide make it possible for businesses to communicate with their customers using video. And the new Yealink VC110 will give small businesses the ability to use video with an affordable solution.
