| After gaining years of experience with complex IP deployments using video firewall management servers from Tandberg, now part of Cisco, Polycom, Lifesize, RADvision, Codian and Emblaze-VCON, VideoCentric has now announced its own all-in-one, cost-effective server called FTS. |
 |
VideoCentric’s new Video Firewall Traversal Server (FTS) is based on a dual port Linux engine with a public IP address for the internet side and a private one for the LAN/VPN side, allowing private IP users the ability to make internal calls on their own network as well as to securely make and receive external video calls to and from internet users without the need to open or close ports or to reconfigure endpoints between private and public networks.
Simplification of dialling is also achieved by associating the FTS with an internet domain name server (DNS) meaning that incoming internet callers can simply dial by name such as john.smith@mycompany.net to securely route through to a desktop Videoconferencing system, rather than having to remember awkward IP addresses. Alternatively LAN/VPN users can dial by short code eg 6789, as translation between dialled digits and IP address is performed automatically by E.164 translation performed by FTS’s embedded Gatekeepers.
FTS is shipping from 1st September 2010. Demonstration units are already available and pricing starts at just £1,999 for a dual port server.
