<div>Ed - a few points.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>First, is your partner a TelePresence ATP? If they're not, I don't know if they can even sell you the gear (and if so, they're likely to sub-contract out components). Second, unfortunately, the self-install route is not [currently] an option for CTS units. Part of the Cisco process is that a Network Path Assessment and Room Readiness Assessment (for triple-screen systems) must be completed by an ATP partner or Cisco AS and submitted to Cisco for approval before the equipment will be shipped.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Let me know if you've got any questions - I work as an architect for a global ATP and would be happy to fill you in on the fine details.</div>

> Sent: Friday, January 15, 2010 9:40 AM<br>> To: Cisco VOIP<br>> Subject: [cisco-voip] Telepresence requirements<br>><br>> Happy Friday Folks,<br>><br>> I understand there are specific personnel requirements that are necessary for Cisco to release telepresence units, can anyone point me to a list or document of what these requirements are? Do they require specific certifications? We're looking at installing some 500's - I can live with getting professional services for the first couple, but there is potential for adding more and hiring out services to install more of the same is a hard sell for me, especially for the small unit.<br>
> All I've come up with so far is the Q&A telling me about needing room and network assessments.<br>><br>> I have a email out to my AM about this question also.. figured I would see what the experts opinions are.<br>
