Cisco TelePresence® Conductor software simplifies multiparty video collaboration. It orchestrates the allocation of conferencing resources for every user in a meeting. Cisco TelePresence Conductor helps to ensure that the user experience is always, consistent, irrespective of user, meeting type and endpoint. TelePresence Conductor is a virtualized application. When deployed in conjunction with Cisco TelePresence Management Suite Provisioning Extensions (Cisco TMSPE), Collaboration Meeting Rooms (CMRs) may be provisioned simply and rapidly. TelePresence Conductor also facilitates large-scale user self-service, allowing users to create and configure their personal CMR preferences Enabling increased scale, and reducing the administration effort required to manage conferences, TelePresence Conductor simplifies conferencing management. Administrators can specify the exact service level and experience required for each user. For example, administrators can determine whether users enjoy standard- or high-definition video, how many participants may connect, the maximum service level available to attendees, and even which Cisco TelePresence Server or Cisco TelePresence Multipoint Control Unit (MCU) is selected, according to geographic location.
