Mirial has released a new comprehensive desktop videoconferencing offering ClearSea, which provides PC and Mac Full-HD desktop client and the ability to connect any legacy device.
The company claims that the new offering, based on a client/server architecture, allows companies to make the most out of their existing videoconferencing infrastructure without additional equipment such as H323/SIP gateways or firewall/NAT traversal appliances.
According to Mirial, ClearSea features a centralised directory, user group management, integration with Active Directory/LDAP and full remote configuration capabilities. It features media server technology and offers native support for all major videoconferencing standards.
In addition, ClearSea provides users the ability to connect local (on-LAN) and remote (off-LAN) desktop users across their firewalls and to their SIP or H323 legacy conferencing room systems, without the need of any external gateway or bridge. The products also embed a video IVR to call users by extensions and an ‘autoscan’ feature for finding existing room systems.
Cristoforo Mione, VP Marketing for Mirial, said: We have been working on ClearSea in stealth mode for over a year, leveraging on both our client-side and server-side technology, as well as on our experience in the software desktop video market since 1999.
ClearSea is available both as physical appliance and as VMware-based Virtual Appliance that provides the flexibility of a software-based approach, as well as the plug-and-play benefits usually associated with stand-alone hardware appliances.
