Video communications is becoming pervasive and organisations are adapting their internal communications strategy to accommodate an increasingly dispersed and mobile workforce.
Video conferencing remains a key internal communications technology, but IPTV, streaming video and digital signage are increasingly complementing it. In the past video conferencing perhaps was the stand alone AV solution of choice for communications whether external or internal. It still plays a central role and will continue to do so.
The big news is based around mobile devices, and organisations are rushing to embrace the concept of BYOD Bring Your Own device. The BYOD phenomenon is both real and multi-faceted. Employees are, in their spare time, also consumers who are developing an increasing attachment to the connected world that mobile devices bring which is driving this trend.
Video is the new audio, with the availability of a consumer-driven infrastructure driving pervasive use but it brings with it corporate challenges. One of the primary concerns is the availability of bandwidth on the network and whether the use of tools such as corporate video will swamp the network. However, this issue can be overcome through multicast technology which enables efficient distribution over the network.
