Secure Videoconferencing – Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)

Secure videoconferencing over a network is possible because the PCS-TL50P supports AES. When a videoconference is initiated with the AES feature active, video, audio, and graphics are encrypted for the duration of the videoconference.

QoS (Quality of Service)

When holding a videoconference over a network, a common concern is how to maintain video and audio quality when the performance of the network is changing. The PCS-TL50P provides two advanced functions to enhance QoS over a network:

•ADAPTIVE RATE CONTROL (ARC)

The adaptive rate control function automatically varies the audio and video bit transfer rate to meet changing network conditions. It also selects the most appropriate frame rates, which helps prevent audio and video break-up.

•REAL-TIME AUTO REPEAT REQUEST (ARQ)

The Real-time ARQ function recovers lost IP packets. This is performed by buffering the packets at the encoder and resending any that are lost. This feature helps maintain the audio and video quality, and helps prevent picture collapse even under high network traffic conditions.

Transportable

The all-in-one PCS-TL50P is equipped with a handle and has a relatively light weight of 10 kg (22 lbs), making it very portable and easy to move from one room to another.

Multi-point Videoconferencing at up to 10 Sites*

Using optional MCU software, the PCS-TL50P can be configured to commu- nicate with up to 5 videoconferencing sites simultaneously using either an IP (H.323 protocol) or ISDN (H.320 protocol) connection. It can also support video- conferences in which the connections are a combination of IP and ISDN using a unique bridging function. Moreover, two PCS-TL50P units - each installed with the optional MCU (H.323) software - can be cascaded with an IP connection to support a maximum of 10 sites. And of course, the PCS-TL50P allows users to expand from a peer-to-peer videoconference to a multi-point video- conference by simply dialling up new connections.**

*The following video and audio standards are supported with multi-point videoconferencing: H.261, H.263, G.711, G.722, and G.728.

**When adding a new endpoint on the same network (IP or ISDN), the system will default to the lowest resolution video standard of all endpoints.

Wireless LAN Capability

By connecting an external wireless LAN device* to the network interface of the PCS-TL50P, the unit can be used on a wireless network.

*Please contact your local Sony sales office for a list of compatible wireless devices.
