Initial notes, from Oliver:

March 2018: Oliver spent time with the Tandberg C20 (Cisco) system, <av.emc2.cornell.edu>. These were his notes, FWIW:

1) Is system capable? "The system must be running TC 5.0.2 or higher or CE software to support OBTP (One Button To Push)."). Not listed as supported, either Standard nor Enhanced:

2) If supported, one would need to run a Windows system to connect system to Zoom, "A Windows PC, Server, or Virtual Machine, for installing and running the Zoom API Connector software locally":

3) Cornell's Zoom must also be properly licensed. From above URL, "A Zoom account with a Cloud Room Connector license".
