CUCM vs. VCS registration

[Mike Assel]

Does anybody know where I can find information on the pros and cons of registering video endpoints to CUCM and VCS?

Thanks,

Mike

have a look at this ask the expert session

advantages :

1. you can leverage BFCP support on the endpoints and do presentation share with other UCM video capable endpoints

2. if you just have Unified communications in your enterprise you can leverage these gears for point to point video call with other UCM video capable endpoints , like Ex90 --- to ---- CTS with no xcoder in between

3. endpoints support TIP

4. you can join adhoc video conference from these phones

5. High resolution video

6. you can leverage same voicemail system that is being used for UCM phones

Register endpoints to VCS when these are required

1. Encryption
   
2. Ad hoc conferencing – Add Participant and Join features
   
3. H.323 registration
   
4. IPv6
   
5. Registering through VCS Expressway (Teleworker)
   
6. TMS scheduling and management of TE/TC endpoints on UCM
   

hope this help
