Video Conferencing System - Uptime

There are four primary factors that influence the uptime and usability of a video conferencing system. The four primary factors are:

• Quality of Components

  - This is the measure that manufacturers use to determine the expected failure rates for equipment

• Operating Temperatures

  - A video conferencing system's operating temperatures clearly affect performance. As temperatures rise, performance declines

• Live Load (Movement)

  - In the telecommunications world one maxim seems to stand the test of time: "Objects at rest tend to keep working"

• Adjustments/Calibration

  - As users interact with their equipment, over time, they make adjustments to improve picture or audio quality and by doing so they ultimately render the systems inoperable.

Testing for Manufacturers and Clients

In addition to video conferencing equipment and service plans, TKO also provides benchmark testing for products under development or those that exhibit chronic problems. TKO maintains facilities to identify factors that improve performance of communications equipment.

We have experience "drilling down" and solving complex problems. Our technicians test assorted conferencing equipment and software revisions to ensure stability and repeatable operation.
