(PRWEB) June 13, 2007 -- HaiVision Systems Inc. (Montreal, Canada), the leader in high performance network video technology, today announces Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) inter-operability for its hai1000 product based on the RADVISION SIP Protocol Toolkit. This capability, incorporated into HaiVision's Invitation™ feature for the hai1000 multi-stream codec for telepresence, allows high performance network video technology to communicate with traditional video conferencing endpoints.

"With RADVISION's support, HaiVision is introducing the first product that can seamlessly bridge the gap between high performance telepresence systems and traditional conferencing endpoints," explains Francois Gariepy, HaiVision's president. "Now within a multipoint telepresence session executives can invite external participants to contribute regardless of their conferencing platform."

"We selected RADVISION because of their cross platform expertise," continues Gariepy. "They have extensive knowledge and experience in both the IP/telecom and conferencing sectors."

"We are excited about HaiVision's efforts in joining together network video with videoconferencing," states Sagi Subocki, Product Manager with RADVISION's Technology Business unit. "SIP is the advanced standard for interaction between communications systems at all levels."

Come see HaiVision (Booth 4846) and RADVISION (Booth 4643) within the conferencing pavilion at InfoComm June 19-21 in Anaheim.
