Nefsis Dedicated:
On-Premise Video Conferencing Server Software Option
You can install Nefsis on your own network server, in
your own DMZ. The on-premise server is an extension of the Nefsis video conferencing
cloud under your control. This configuration is often referred to as a hybrid cloud.
This option provides the most extensive security, routing, feature and user-level
controls.
Instant-On Video Conferencing or Hybrid Cloud
Nefsis delivers advanced multipoint video conferencing with any
desktop, camera or room. You get high quality, business-grade video with
shared internet access, and HD, telepresence quality where
bandwidth permits. Nefsis also provides a full suite of
web
collaboration tools for a complete online meeting solution,
webcam to HD, desktop to boardroom.
With Nefsis Online, you can start a FREE trial
right now and experiment with all the features.
Nefsis Online is our most popular product choice. However,
for customers that demand more user, feature, access, routing and security controls,
we offer Nefsis Dedicated.
Nefsis Dedicated is installable, on-premise video conferencing
server software that runs on your server, in your DMZ. You can restrict conference
documents to your server, and apply user and feature-level restrictions not available
in standard online services. You can also take advantage of
server placement
to implement performance, routing and
Quality of Service (QoS) controls.
Advanced Technology
Take Advantage of
Multi-Core Processors You Already Have
Nefsis uses the most advanced, multi-core parallel processing
from end-to-end, including multiple cores on your own PC. In addition, Nefsis
takes advantage of multimedia processor extensions, further improving the quality
of live sharing and
multipoint video.
As your organization goes through a typical desktop technology refresh cycle,
your video processing power naturally goes up without any further
investment. With Nefsis, your organization will always be a step
ahead with Moore's Law.
Use Any Connection Type
Nefsis advanced technology includes automated throttling
to govern video quality, bandwidth, and
CPU availability. You can use default video quality settings,
or manually set video resolution, frame rate, or compression quality in
real-time. Nefsis will gray-out any setting that
cannot be supported under current bandwidth conditions. This provides the
flexibility to conference with any desktop or room, over any
connection type: shared internet access with nominal bandwidth, or
dedicated routes with ample bandwidth for multipoint HD.

Superior Connection Success Rates
Nefsis real-time routing has powered secure, inter-office messaging,
live sharing and communications applications for over 11 years. Nefsis
firewall and proxy traversal supports a long list of
industry standard ports, proxy connections, and vendor-specific
optimizations developed over successive generations to give you the
best connection success rates in multi-office
environments. In addition, when you connect to your virtual conference
server, Nefsis steps you through its connection optimizer,
which tries multiple ports, direct connections, proxy connections, and
so on, selecting the best port and connection type available for each
user at that point in time.
These features work together to get you connected with virtually any business
desktop or conference room worldwide. Our customers use Nefsis over
the public Internet and their own LANs, WANs and VPNs.

Standard Peripherals Lower Cost
Webcams & Conference Room HD Cameras
Why
over-pay for proprietary solutions, when off-the-shelf
video conferencing equipment, webcams, HD cameras and flat
panel displays are readily available? With Nefsis, you can use any
audio/video peripheral you like, there is no need to match equipment.
You can use popular webcams, conference room pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ)
cameras, HD, or no camera at all.
Headsets, Microphones & VoIP
The same technology that delivers multipoint video, also delivers
wideband, full-duplex voice over IP audio. Nefsis
VoIP is a natural part of your online meeting experience. It sounds better
than the telephone, giving you the flexibility to replace travel and per-minute
teleconferencing expenses, with fixed-price web, VoIP and video
conferencing.
Nefsis audio is multiparty, full-duplex, so multiple people can speak
at the same time, just like meeting in person. Advanced audio
technology such as acoustic echo cancellation (AEC), automatic gain
control (AGC), and comfort noise generation (CNG), all add up to the
best sounding, multiparty VoIP available.
Just like cameras above, Nefsis is broadly compatible with a wide
variety of microphones, headsets and conference room audio
equipment at costs far below proprietary solutions.

Comprehensive Live Sharing Features
Nefsis has a built-in, full-suite of
web
conferencing features for sharing virtually anything accessible
to your PC. This includes documents, live desktops and applications,
whiteboards, and text chat windows. Nefsis takes
web collaboration to
the next level: You can annotate documents, presentations, and
live applications; distribute files and handouts; and even play media
files. What's more, the advanced parallel processing and
automated throttling technologies described above lets you use all of
these features in a fully interactive, multipoint VoIP and video
conference without bogging down your PC.
Share Documents & Presentations
Nefsis provides high-quality document and PowerPoint
presentation sharing. Nefsis does not take a screen grab, it
displays rich text and graphics for all participants, just as if
these documents were displayed by their native applications.
Nefsis provides thumbnail views of each page, so you can easily
skip back and forth during your presentation. For advanced
users, Nefsis provides options to raise or lower the compression
quality for document graphics, providing more flexibility for
specific scenarios such as medical imaging and engineering
services, where high quality is required.
Share Live Applications with Annotation & Remote Control
Nefsis
live sharing — desktop, application, region and browser — let you
display anything on your computer desktop. To highlight specific areas,
you can use region sharing, and set the lasso over the area of interest;
or take advantage of the Nefsis annotation toolbar and use pointers and
highlighting tools. These capabilities are useful in
sales, training,
engineering services, healthcare, or any scenario where live interaction
or complex subject matter is shared.
For group collaboration, Nefsis provides remote control in all
live sharing features. Once remote control is requested and granted,
another user can run the live application while everyone else
watches.
Hand-Outs & File Transfer
Nefsis
provides online meeting hosts and presenters with a Files &
Handouts feature, making it easy to distribute documents during working meetings,
just as you would do if meeting in person.
Play a Movie File
The Nefsis virtual meeting environment lets you share virtually anything
on your PC, even media files (WMV and other movie files). It's as
easy as clicking the share Media File button, selecting a WMV or other
movie file, and then clicking on the VCR-like media controls for play
and pause, fast-forward and rewind. Depending on such factors as the
bandwidth, encoding and size of the media file, Nefsis will play the
file at full resolution, or within limits, automatically adjusting
quality so that everyone sees the same content in real-time.
Nefsis is not a heavily buffered streaming application. The media
file is played in real-time, and everyone in the conference gets the
same experience simultaneously. The presenter can play and pause the movie,
discuss the contents, and watch everybody's reaction via Nefsis
multipoint video.
Record & Playback
Nefsis Record & Playback lets you record everything in your virtual
conferencing session, including live sharing and multipoint VoIP and
video. Nefsis uses industry standard file formats (AVI,
Flash/FLV), so that you can use these files with other applications.
