Montreal, Canada -- HaiVision Systems Inc., the leader in high
performance network video technology, today announces
interoperability between the HaiVision hai1000 and Codian’s HD MCU
4500 Series. HaiVision’s low latency hai1000 video codec systems,
used extensively in telepresence and high performance
communications, have the seamless capability to communicate with
traditional video conferencing endpoints through Codian’s MCU 4500
Series family of multimedia conferencing bridges.
The interoperability is facilitated by HaiVision’s Invitation™
technology based on Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) and by both
manufacturers’ support of industry standard H.264 video compression
and AAC audio compression. |

“Invitation is what everyone involved
in telepresence has been waiting for,” expresses Peter Maag, Vice
President of HaiVision. “Interoperability with Codian allows
telepresence to take advantage of the videoconferencing fabric of an
enterprise while retaining the true to life characteristics of the
telepresence environment.”
"Codian provides an unrivalled rich multimedia experience to users
that want the ultimate in visual quality. The collaboration with
HaiVision highlights how Codian’s platform can be extended to
address the very high-end HD requirements of modern telepresence
systems,” said Killko Caballero, Head of Strategic Alliances, Codian.
Invitation is a firmware module for HaiVision’s hai1000 series. The
hai1000 is a true multi-stream codec system capable of supporting 5
high performance encode decode pairs. With Invitation, superior
quality communication between telepresence endpoints can be
maintained while simultaneously introducing the traditional video
conferencing devices.
Invitation is supported on the standard definition hai1000 systems
and will support HaiVision’s new MAKO-HD technology for high
definition H.264 applications.
Come see HaiVision’s launch of Invitation in booth 4846 and Codian
