Tandberg is attempting to bring the world of Webconferencing and videoconferencing together with a new development deal with WebEx. As part of the deal, Tandberg will build in the ability for users of its Tandberg Management System (TMS) Scheduler to add a WebEx conference as part of an overall audio and video conference reservation. TMS will automatically schedule the necessary resources with the WebEx service. Customers will need to establish and pay for the WebEx account separately. Data in the WebEx piece of the conference will be available to phone participants with Web access and Tandberg video endpoints equipped with a PC or the company’s DuoVideo technology, which allows people to be displayed on one screen and data on a second screen. The WebEx functionality will be available in TMS Scheduler 6.2, due out later this quarter.
