Microsoft—Polycom

Meeting Scenarios

Microsoft–Polycom integrated solution offers high quality point-to-point and multipoint voice, and video conferencing calls (in any combination) across communication devices, applications and services. This solution empowers users to connect and share information in real-time regardless of type of call. Polycom enhances Microsoft’s environment by:

•enabling Polycom endpoints (VSX and PVX) to be added to Office Communicator and Windows Messenger buddy list

•bridging between Microsoft SIP-only environment and legacy ISDN, PSTN and H.323 endpoints

•displaying the user/endpoint presence in the buddy list

•starting a point-to-point or multipoint meeting directly from Polycom endpoints, Office Communicator and Windows Messenger.

In the Microsoft—Polycom environment, two arrays of meeting scenarios are available; Those intended for Windows Messenger and Office Communicator that do not leverage and are not based on SIP-CX conferencing and those intended for Office Communicator and are based on SIP-CX conferencing.
