TCS with VCS

[adamgibs7]

Dears,

I am new to TCS and VCS, i want to implement  TCS which will receive stream from TP endpoint and it will push to appspace and then to DMP,

I am actually confuse in how many different scenarios we can use VCS, and which are the different device that it can inter operate. I want to learn first how VCS works without  CUCM.??and what type of devices it can register by which protocol.??

Thanks

The only distribution outputs the TCS can support are:

• Cisco Media Experience Engine (MXE) 3500
• Cisco Show and Share
• Podcast Producer
• iTunes U
• Streaming Servers (Windows Media, Wowza for Flash, QuickTime/Darwin)

Can see more details in the TCS 6.x Admin Guide on understanding distributions outputs.

As far as a comparison of VCS or CUCM, someone else that knows CUCM more in-depth than I do would have to help there.

The TCS supports the usage of the API, so depending on what you need, it might be possible with some effort.

API guide:

The VCS can handle h323 and sip, registrations, calls and the translation in between both.

CUCM is today more or less SIP-Centric, but you can combine it with the VCS or EXPRESSWAY.

For more info there, search a bit here in the board or via google.

Please keep this thread TCS only and if you still wonder about VCS vs. CUCM open a new

thread for that.
