PEPPERDINE UNIVERSITY GOES WITH TANDBERG
Pepperdine University, a Christian university committed to the highest standards of academic excellence and Christian values, was in need of a video conferencing solution to continue its virtual network expansion that would enable them to bring people together from a distance, using high-speed bandwidth available through Internet 2 connectivity through CalREN, California's ultra-high speed network for research and education.
Given Pepperdine's huge physical presence in Southern California and seven countries around the world, video conferencing in real-time for participants located at distant locations has been a necessity. To solve the need for placing equipment in multiple locations under the constraint of limited capital funds, Solutionz provided Pepperdine with the most economical TANDBERG video conferencing equipment, the TANDBERG Profile MXP system for Pepperdine's London, England location.
With the ever-expanding video conferencing access, the Pepperdine community will continue to be able to host symposiums, seminars, distance learning classes, and meetings in real-time to participants located at distant locations. According to Timothy Chester, Pepperdine University's Chief Information Officer, "The ability to bridge time and distance through the use of technology is huge for us. Video conferencing helps us expand the reach of the work of our students and faculty while being cost-effective. It is a win-win for our faculty, student, and the larger communities we serve."
