Desktop Conferencing

Desktop conferencing involves utilizing your desktop computer for the purpose of communication. Basically it is computer based technology which allows you to interact with anyone seamlessly. It includes both audio and video; you can also transfer electronic documents and files during such conferences. This technology also enables you to broadcast power point presentations with all the participants of the conference.

In order to employ this technology you require your desktop computer, software application, internet and a camera which can capture and send your recordings online. The software application takes care of maintaining the session between the participants and transferring of files, audio and video. Most of the operating systems prevalent these days, are already having this complete technology inbuilt. As far as all the participants connect with the required protocol at the same time on internet, they can interact with each other just like in any normal meeting.

For smooth functioning of this system you need a rather good speed internet connection of at least 128 KB. If you need to extensively use presentations, videos etc you are better placed if you go for 1 GB speed of internet connection. With the help of this technology you can conduct a one on one meeting between few people or you can also use this same software application to broadcast your message to several hundred or even thousand participants. Connection to other computers is accomplished by user's IP addresses.

Advanced desktop conferencing involves real time interaction. It even includes a collaborative white boarding in which two or more participants can share the same virtual board where they can view, discuss and review the same document from their own respective computers simultaneously. A multipoint conference involves participating in the meeting from more than one location. If you want to install your separate local area system so that you can interact with different departments in your company you can use a special network called CCAC.
