TIP Layout Support & Resource Usage

Cisco Telepresence endpoints using TIP protocol support only one (CTS 1000) or three (CTS 3000) display screens. Therefore, Polycom Telepresence endpoints will adjust their display to use one or three screens as follows:

●OTX system - Works with three screens, therefore no adjustment is required and it should be set to work in room switch Telepresence Layout Mode (while avoiding zooming in/out)

●RPX 2xx - This endpoint works with two screens, therefore it will adjust to use only one screen.

●RPX 4xx - This endpoint works with four screens, therefore it will adjust to use only three screens.

●Standalone HDX - behaves as the CTS 1000 and uses only one screen.

●Group system 300/500 - behaves as the CTS 1000 and uses only one screen.

The Polycom MLA Server manages the conference template layouts for Telepresence systems.

The number of screens used by each TIP-enabled endpoint is determined during the capabilities exchange phase of the dial-in connection. It affects the usage and allocation of resources used with TIP-enabled endpoints.

Supported TIP Resolutions and Resource Allocation

Supported Resolutions

In Telepresence TIP-enabled environment, only two video resolutions are available: 720p30 and 1080p30.

Supported resolution per conference line rate

Conference Line Rate	Selected Resolution
3Mb or higher	1080p 30 fps
963kbps to 3Mb	720p 30 fps
Up to 936kbps	Call is disconnected.

Resource Allocation

The MCU media processor (ART) supports up to three TIP-enabled screens as follows:

●One TIP-enabled endpoint with three screens

●Up to three TIP-enabled endpoint with one screen
