UC360 Collaboration Point Interoperability Update

Mitel Logo

Mitel's UC360 Collaboration Point was designed with flexible interoperability in mind. Being SIP and H.264 standards based, it can function behind a number of communications platforms, not just those from Mitel, like the Mitel Communications Director and the Mitel 5000 Communications Platform. It also inter-operates with a number of video conferencing (VC) solutions including desktop SIP-based video clients and room-based VC solutions.

This announcement details the inter-op testing that has been performed to date by the SIP Center of Excellence team at Mitel, and provides all the configuration scenarios that were used in the set up and testing of the UC360 Collaboration Point (both Audio and Video variants) on various 3rd party Video Conferencing systems as well as behind third party PBXs.

UC360 Collaboration Point was designed with flexible interoperability in mind.

It also interoperates with a number of video conferencing (VC) solutions including desktop SIP-based video clients and room-based VC solutions. This opens the door for Mitel channel partners to offer an exciting new product with clearly differentiated value into accounts that aren’t ready for a wholesale communications infrastructure change-out.
