A Typical SVC-Based Conference Deployment Scenario

Polycom’s migration path for SVC-based conferencing enables a smooth and incremental transition for enterprises that have existing Polycom UC infrastructure such as the RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) or the RealPresence Collaboration Server 800s - Virtual Edition, RealPresence Virtualization Manager (DMA), and the RealPresence Resource Manager. Software upgrades to the various Polycom components are performed to provide deployment of SVC-based conferencing, enabling the enterprise to keep their initial investments and upgrading costs to a minimum. Additionally, POCN, Cisco TIP, ISDN, PSTN, and H323 are supported in the RealPresence Collaboration Server for AVC- based conferences.
