Collaboration technologies are the backbone of modern communication strategies, uniting voice, video, and data into seamless workflows. This course equips participants with the skills to deploy and operate Cisco core collaboration solutions, including call control, QoS, gateways, and collaboration applications. Through practical exercises and classroom learning, they will build capabilities for configuring and troubleshooting unified communications infrastructure.
Learning Outcomes:
Implement Cisco collaboration architecture and signalling
Configure voice gateways and dial plans
Manage call control and globalised call routing
Apply QoS models to voice and video networks
Key Topics:
Cisco Collaboration architecture
Cisco IOS XE media and signalling
CUCM provisioning and call routing
QoS policies for collaboration endpoints
Cisco Jabber, Unity Connection, and IM integration
Exam Details
This course is designed to build participants’ understanding of key concepts and competencies aligned with the Implementing Cisco Collaboration Core Technologies (350-801 CLCOR) certification.
The certification supports Cisco’s CCNP® Collaboration, CCIE® Collaboration, and Cisco Certified Specialist – Collaboration Core credentials.
