ZTE delivers high resolution video and voice conferencing solutions through Review Video’s European reseller network
ZTE and Review Video today announced a multi-million dollar distribution agreement for ZTE’s video conferencing products. Following the rigorous test and evaluation process carried out by Review Video, a leading global provider of products and services for the video and audio conferencing industry, the ZTE T500 series of multimedia terminals will be available for resale through Review Video’s existing reseller base throughout the UK. For ZTE, a leading global provider of telecommunications equipment and network solutions, this agreement marks the first time that its video conferencing products will be available in Europe.
As part of this agreement, ZTE and Review Video have worked together closely to develop a product specification specifically for the Western European video conferencing market. Through the initial consultation, customised design, product development and acceptance testing, ZTE and Review Video have defined the key functionality and specifications demanded by the European market to develop a product that delivers high quality point-to-point and multi-point video applications.
“The video conferencing market continues to grow thanks to the combination of globalisation fueling the need for more international business dealings together with the spiraling cost and environmental impact of air travel challenging businesses to find more cost effective ways of conducting business but still maintaining the personal touch,” said Mr. Barry T. Cross, CEO of Review Video. “The deal with ZTE is going to enable us to give our reseller channel a real choice when going out to customers, and provide a first-class product that is designed and built specifically for the needs of European businesses. We’re excited to be launching ZTE’s video conferencing products into Europe.”
“European customers are very experienced and sophisticated when it comes to video conferencing – they know what they want, they expect quality, and they demand reliability,” said Mr. Frank Bai, Managing Director of ZTE UK. “Working with Review Video, ZTE has developed a next generation terminal that delivers a high quality service that will transform the video conferencing experience. We’re delighted to be working with Review Video and their channel to bring our line of products to businesses across Europe.”
The ZTE T500 series of terminals are a new generation of multi-media telecommunications terminals designed for medium to large rooms. It supports key European and international standards including H.239 dual video streams and comprehensive network adaptability including compliance with H.320, H.323 and static NAT/H.460/firewall traversing with Diffserv and enhanced QoS. With CD-quality voice and High resolution video up to 4CIF, the ZTE T500 delivers an intuitive user experience through a click-to-send interface.
