Cisco Systems Inc. want to extend business into tablet computer filed. Cisco said we will build our own tablet computer and launch in the early next year.
Apple launched the iPad tablet computer in March but Cisco, the world’s largest maker of networking equipment, said its own tablet, the Cius, has been in the works for a year and a half.
The Cius will have a 7-inch (18-centimeter) screen, making it smaller and lighter than the iPad. While the iPad has no camera, the Cius will have two, facing both toward and away from the user.
Videoconferencing on the go will be a major focus of the product, according to Barry O’Sullivan, senior vice president of Cisco’s Voice Technology Group.
The tablet will come with the ability to connect to Wi-Fi hot spots and cellular broadband networks. Cisco is in talks with six phone companies around the world who could provide service for it, O’Sullivan said in an interview.
The Cius will be able to use external monitors and wireless mice and keyboards, so it could even be used as a replacement for a desk computer by connecting to servers that run “virtualized” applications, Cisco said.
