High Definition Video Conferencing
| Last Updated Aug 27, 2021
RealPresence Group Series systems offer the following high-definition (HD) capabilities:
Send people or content video to the far site in HD
Receive and display video from the far site in HD
Display near-site video in HD
Full-motion HD
Systems with HD capability can send video in wide-screen, HD format. To send video in HD format, use any
model of Polycom camera that supports HD video and a Polycom system capable of sending 720p or better
video.
When the far site sends HD video, RealPresence Group Series systems with HD capability and an HD
monitor can display the video in wide-screen, HD format. The HD 720 format supported by these systems is
1280 x 720, progressive scan format (720p). RealPresence Group Series systems with 1080 capability can
receive 1080p progressive format and can display 1080p progressive or 1080i interlaced format.
Near-site video is displayed in HD format when you use an HD video source and an HD monitor. However,
near-site video is displayed in SD if the system is in an SD or lower-resolution call.
To use HD for a multipoint call, keep the following requirements in mind:
The call must be hosted by a system or a conferencing platform that supports HD such as Polycom
RealPresence Collaboration Server 1500 or 2000.
The system host must have the appropriate option keys installed.
All systems in the call must support HD (720p at 30 fps) and H.264.
The call rate must be high enough to support HD resolution.
The call cannot be cascaded.

HTTPS severely limits the ability of anyone on the network to discover these credentials. For
this reason, all attempts to use the system web interface via HTTP are redirected to the HTTPS

not all security settings are available in all countries.
