Polycom 1500/1800/2000/4000 manual Using Conference Profiles

Using Conference Profiles

In the RealPresence CloudAxis Solution, the Conference Profiles are defined in the RealPresence DMA system component and should not be defined directly in the RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 1500/1800/2000/4000 component.

Conference Profiles include conference parameters such as Conferencing Mode, conference line rate, video and content sharing resolutions and settings, video layout, encryption, Lost Packet Recovery (LPR), etc. Profiles eliminate the need to define these parameters for each new conference created on the MCU. They are stored on the Collaboration Server and they enable you to define all types of conferences.

The maximum number of Conference Profiles that can be defined is 80.

Conference Profiles are assigned to Conferences, Meeting Rooms, Reservations and Entry Queues. The same Profile can be assigned to different conferencing entities. When modifying the Profile parameters, the changes will be applied to all the conferencing entities to which the profile is assigned.

Conference Profile options differ according to the selected Conferencing Mode. Profiles can be defined for AVC (Advanced Video Codec) CP and VSW, SVC (Scalable Video Codec), or Mixed CP and SVC conferencing modes.

Conference Profiles can be saved to Conference Templates along with all participant parameters, including their Personal Layout and Video Forcing settings. It enables administrators and operators to create, save, schedule and activate identical conferences quickly and easily.

Conferencing Parameters Defined in a Profile

When defining a new video Profile, you select the parameters that determine the video display on the participant’s endpoint and the quality of the video, according to the selected Conferencing Mode. When defining a new conference Profile, the system uses default values for the selected conferencing Mode.
