Chapter 3-SVC Conferencing System Architecture

The RealPresence Collaboration Server automatically assigns AVC and SVC resources and can be expanded as needed. Upgrading the RealPresence Collaboration Server software enables managing and operating SVC-based conferences in addition to AVC-based conferences.

SVC-based conferencing requires that the RealPresence Virtualization Manager (DMA) component be installed as a SIP Proxy server.

Polycom’s SVC-based conferencing solution does not require any special training and does not require changing existing dial plans. SVC-based conferencing possess exceptional audio quality — Scalable Audio Coding (SAC) is supported.

The following diagram illustrates Polycom’s migration to the SVC-based conferencing solution:
