Point-to-point video conferncing In point-to-point, the simplest scenario is where one person or group is connected to another. The physical components (i.e. microphone and camera) that enable the meeting to take place are often integrated in to desktop computing solutions like a laptop or tablet, or can be combined into dedicated, room-based hardware solutions. text/html 2018-09-18T05:37:00+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://helpdesk.strw.leidenuniv.nl/wiki/doku.php?id=videoconf:cisco&rev=1537249020&do=diff Cisco SX20, HL 1104 This is the newest Video conferencing unit we have in house.
