SECTION I
Introduction Leading companies use uses video collaboration as a competitive advantage. In a recent global survey found that for businesses, the top video conferencing benefits are: •
Increased efficiency/productivity (cited by 94% of respondents)
•
Increased impact of discussions (88%)
•
Expedited decision making (87%)
•
Reduced travel costs (87%)
A video-enabled enterprise keeps employees collaborating effectively no matter where they are, in any work environment. Consider that around 55% of the impact of communications comes from facial expressions and body language. And, in face-to-face meetings vs. audio, people learn twice as much, retain 38% more, and are 43% more persuasive, leading to stronger consensus and faster decision making.
The New Business Reality Business has changed. Now a mobile, social and global world, the nature of work is no longer 9 to 5, but 24x7—all day, every day. As we see an increasingly high level of remote and distributed workforces, we realize that mobility is not a trend—it’s a business reality.
A recent global survey confirms this with 87% of respondents agreeing that video helps employees work remotely without feeling disconnected from their colleagues. We work anywhere and everywhere, and video needs to, too. It needs to be easy to use and deliver consistent, reliable user experiences whether in an immersive theater, a conference room, at a PC or laptop in the home or work office, or on the go using a tablet or smartphone. To do this requires an enterprise video and UC infrastructure based on open standards.
Extending Secure, Enterprise-Grade Video to Everyone Meeting face-to-face with customers and partners beyond the firewall is a growing use case for the leading companies. For internal teams, customers and partners alike, video needs to be easy to use and it must deliver consistent, reliable user experiences without compromising security.
All Solutions in Your UC Environment Should Play Nicely with One Another It’s not just about video. Your organization has all sorts of communication and business apps from multiple vendors, and they all need to work together. Today, multi-vendor video conferencing environments are the norm. Add in all of the other apps in a Unified Communications (UC) environment that need to interoperate, and leading video conferencing solution providers begin to separate from the pack. When solutions aren’t built on open standards video systems from different vendors often can’t connect because of competing protocols which in turn creates video islands. To accommodate the mobile, social and global workforce, a video-enabled enterprise ensures their entire UC environments are interoperable through open standards.

Polycom® RealPresence® Group Series
PRODUCT BROCHURE Polycom® RealPresence® Group Series
Today’s increasingly competitive global workplace requires teams to be able to make decisions across distances and without barriers. To compete and become more agile in a fastmoving world, organizations need to create productive work environments that enable digital work habits and collaboration. These interactions spark innovation, engagement and higher productivity. But most conference rooms are ill-equipped to meet these challenges. According to Forrester Research over 90% of meeting rooms lack even basic video collaboration capabilities*. As traditional office environments shift to open and shared workspaces, teams are left to themselves to use antiquated or unreliable consumer-grade tools when making critical business decisions. Polycom® RealPresence® Group Series is the engine that drives enterprise-grade video, voice and collaboration experiences, accelerating decision-making and fostering innovation. Only Polycom delivers video collaboration experiences that bring users closer together, helping geographically dispersed teams harness information and knowledge to improve efficiency and productivity. Next-generation collaboration tools ensure that everyone is involved in all aspects of the conversation, with interactive content on any device. Standards-based interoperability and deep integration with Microsoft Lync ensures that the experience is a scalable and manageable part of the UC experience that users are already familiar with. Video Experiences Natural, lifelike video experiences require more than just great video quality. Conference rooms are especially tricky – every room is different, ranging from small to very large, in all sizes and shapes. And a growing number of interactions happen outside of traditional conference rooms, introducing a new set of challenges. The key is to deliver a great experience for every participant that feels as natural as being there. Everyone should see and be seen, bringing distant teams closer together and motivating collaboration.
Only Polycom delivers a range of automatic camera tracking solutions that ensure participants can always be seen clearly. • Polycom® EagleEye™ Producer uses innovative facial-tracking algorithms to accurately frame all participants, eliminating the “bowling alley” view that is all too common in video calls. • For a more immersive experience, Polycom® EagleEye™ Director automatically zooms in on the person speaking, transmitting facial expressions and body language for higher impact and more productive video collaboration. • Delivering these kinds of personalized experiences with no user intervention transforms team collaboration into an interactive experience that is much more comfortable and enjoyable for everyone, driving up video utilization and creating more meaningful connections. Users form stronger relationships across distances with the stunning clarity and natural, lifelike motion inherent in Polycom® RealPresence® Group Series that allows even the most subtle details to be clearly seen, with video quality up to 1080p resolution at 60 frames per second. All of this is available at up to 50% less bandwidth than competitive solutions by utilizing H.264 High Profile technology. Polycom® RealPresence® Group Series makes it quick and simple to experience these productivity benefits. Great care has gone into designing a user interface that is easy and intuitive so anyone can start a video call with no training. Since users have varying control preferences, Polycom has designed several different ways to dial, share content, and control different aspects of the meeting. • With Polycom® SmartPairing™, use your own mobile device to dial and manage video calls. • Each room can have its own calendar displayed on-screen with a single click to dial meetings, simplifying connections for users. • The optional Polycom® Touch Control provides a simple tabletop touch interface that can also be used with legacy Polycom video solutions for consistency in every location.

Audio Experiences Great quality audio is critical for seamless collaboration experiences. Polycom continues to push the envelope with new innovations in audio conferencing to meet the needs of changing workplace dynamics and emerging meeting spaces. • RealPresence Group Series features the ultimate voice clarity, automatically reducing background noises and delivering advanced echo cancellation to keep meetings on track and free from distractions. • Even more obtrusive noises are removed by Polycom NoiseBlock™ technology, which keeps annoying sounds such as keyboard clicking and paper rustling from interrupting your meetings. • The entire experience is protected by Siren LPR technology, which protects audio quality without interruption even in very challenging network environments with significant packet loss. Every location has its own unique acoustic challenges, so it is important to have a range of audio options for optimal clarity from anywhere. • Multi-directional table microphones use 3 distinct pickup elements to ensure everyone is heard clearly. • Optional Polycom Ceiling Microphone Arrays move the microphones up and out of view, keeping the table clear of clutter and keeping distracting noises out of your calls. • Native integration with Polycom SoundStation conference phones delivers a consistent experience for users, whether they are on voice or video calls, and adds additional microphone coverage during all call types. • For larger or more acoustically challenging rooms, Polycom® SoundStructure® enables highly sophisticated audio tuning and configuration, plus the ability to add dozens of additional microphones, delivering clarity for everyone even in your largest spaces. Content Collaboration Experiences In many meetings, high-quality content collaboration is the most important factor. RealPresence Group Series lets you share content up to 1080p resolution at 60 frames per second—better than Blu-Ray quality. You can share anything with everyone on the call in the same quality that you see it locally - video clips, CAD animations, medical diagrams, or anything else you can dream up. Critical functions are improved and projects are tackled more effectively when high-quality collaboration is an essential part of the daily workflow. Collaboration tools that are accessible to all and integrated into daily activities fosters true collaboration for everyone. Polycom® VisualBoard™ technology enables you to mark up documents, drawings, or anything else you share during a call. You can do this from a touch monitor, the Polycom® UC Board™ accessory connected to a standard LCD display or white board, or even a mouse connected to the RealPresence Group system. Plus you can save all of the content and annotations on a flash drive for later use.

“With a video call we can resolve the problem and avoid patient admissions back into the training unit. It’s very high definition so we can see every aspect of the dialysis treatment as if you were in the room with them.” Tracy Berry, Home Therapy Manager, Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust
Polycom® RealPresence® Group Series offers a versatile array of options for sharing from nearly any type of device. • Use the built-in VGA and HDMI connectors to plug directly into a laptop, document camera, Blu-ray player, or a multitude of other devices. • Use the free People+Content IP application to wirelessly share from a PC or Mac. • Use SmartPairing to automatically connect your mobile device or laptop to the RealPresence Group system. • Or, when using the RealPresence Platform with RealPresence Content Sharing Suite, you can easily send or receive content from a standard web browser. Interoperability A video collaboration solution is only as valuable as the number of other systems that it can call. Polycom® RealPresence® Group Series supports open, standardsbased interoperability, giving you the freedom to connect to anyone, anywhere. We’re compatible with both current communication technology investments and with new and emerging systems to deliver the best investment protection. Deep interoperability and integration with leading unified communications (UC) platforms— such as Microsoft Lync 2013 and 2010—means that video calls easily fit with the way you already communicate. This native interoperability, without expensive and complex gateways, extends the benefits of your UC platform investment while simplifying the experience for users. Emerging Scalable Video Coding (SVC) technology makes video collaboration more resilient to challenging network conditions while lowering your infrastructure costs. Many SVC products that are based on proprietary technology lock customers into only using specific vendor equipment. Polycom’s unique interoperable SVC architecture is the first to provide video calling between both existing video systems and new SVC systems. This unique approach delivers unmatched investment protection and avoids “video islands” that lock you into only calling other like systems. Polycom’s approach introduces SVC into standards-based environments for the best of both worlds. Broad Range of Options Polycom® RealPresence® Group Series is an ideal fit for any type of collaborative environment, from huddle rooms to large classrooms and open workspaces. It’s important that the technology be right-sized for the environment in order to deliver the best possible experience for all users. Polycom’s range of cameras, accessories, and packaged solutions ensure that you can outfit any type of space at a price that fits your budget.

Polycom® UC Board™ Transforming ordinary surfaces into virtual whiteboards Easy-to-share and easy-to-see—start creating
Benefits
People meet to strategize, share ideas, and plan. When meeting over distance, participants on the far end of a video meeting can be at a disadvantage during creative or brainstorming sessions when content is shared spontaneously, spurred by conversation in the meeting. Whiteboarding and smart-boards are a great way to creatively interact and capture ideas but traditionally have been expensive and cumbersome to install and use in a video setting.
• S imple and direct—USB connection directly to codec eliminates need to take up valuable camera inputs
The Polycom® UC Board™ device is the perfect solution to transform any whiteboard or LCD monitor into an interactive video whiteboard space and it natively integrates with the Polycom® RealPresence® Group Series or Polycom® HDX® video system in the room. Sharing ideas in any video session is as simple as picking up a pen and starting to write, draw, and interact. The Polycom UC Board solution is the latest in break-through innovations from Polycom that are transforming the collaborative experience and elevating a typical video conference into a fully interactive and immersive session where people make decisions, solve problems, and move to action. From doctors illustrating a diagnosis to a patient, to an architect sketching the next concept for green construction, to a student solving a problem with classmates from around the world, the Polycom UC Board solution enables users to interact naturally and efficiently. Users can easily share with multiple participants and also record their work with Polycom’s recording and streaming technology.
Leading technology innovation, unmatched performance Polycom is the only manufacturer to offer this ease of use and native integration for video whiteboarding by creating a direct connection from the video codec to any standard whiteboard or LCD in the room. Users just walk up to the board and pick up the stylus, and as soon as the pen touches the whiteboard, remote participants see the notations and are immediately engaged. The Polycom UC Board solution is an intuitive and collaborative addition to any conference room and will be used immediately and frequently. Set-up is quick and easy, and little to no user training is necessary. Users just pick up the pen and start writing. With standards-based content sharing, the Polycom UC Board allows users to share their work seamlessly with any other standards-based system from Polycom and other manufacturers without the need for any gateway or conversion software. Mobile users on Polycom ® RealPresence ® Desktop and Polycom ® RealPresence ® Mobile can also view information shared by participants using the UC Board solution.
• H ands-free operation— Automatically starts when the pen touches the surface; simple interface allows for immediate interaction • B road interoperability—First and only solution that offers native integration; allows content viewing through standards-based H.239 across all UC devices regardless of location of physical whiteboard • C ost effective—Leverage existing Polycom infrastructure and whiteboards you own. With no dedicated PC needed, installation is easy and sets up in minutes • Import and distribute—Slides can be imported and all annotations can be saved to easily distribute to attendees

Polycom® EagleEye™ Director The most intelligent camera in Unified Communications and Collaboration delivers breakthrough HD RealPresence® experience The Polycom® EagleEye™ Director changes the face of group video communications by enabling close-up views of every speaker in a video conference, regardless of their location or the number of people in the room. With fully automated camera pan, tilt, and zoom motions, the EagleEye Director resolves the common problem in video conferencing of seeing all participants during a meeting, but not being able to see facial expressions of the person talking. Now, by highlighting, zooming in, and framing active speakers, everyone can clearly see critical facial expressions and read the subtle body language which enables deeper engagement and more effective meetings. Leveraging patented technology, including voice triangulation, face finding, and an innovative dual-camera configuration, the EagleEye Director delivers breakthrough affordability in personalizing the telepresence experience for every group conference and enables richer communication and more productive meetings. With meeting participants no longer needing to worry about staying in the camera view or interrupting the flow of conversation to handle the remote control, they can spend 100% of their time in meetings focusing on the bigger issue—their business.
Innovative technology delivers unmatched value With powerful processing technology on board, the EagleEye Director ships ready to be used in conjunction with any of the Polycom® HDX® or Polycom® RealPresence® Group series room telepresence systems and is simple to set up through a single cable connection. An array of seven microphones in the base of the unit allows the EagleEye Director to precisely locate voices in a variety of room shapes and sizes, making it the ideal solution for large conference rooms, class rooms, or board rooms.
Locate, recognize, frame, display Beyond advancing the technology, Polycom leveraged deep human factor expertise to optimize EagleEye Director behavior. Once the voice has been located, the EagleEye Director executes facial detection algorithms to determine if the user is speaking to other users in the room or to meeting participants at the far end. The camera will then automatically ‘zoom in’ and position the speaker in the optimal proportion and location in the viewing window. This multi-step process helps ensure that far-end participants always enjoy a high-impact, immersive experience. A wide-panning radius of the cameras gives users the flexibility to move freely about the room with the confidence that the EagleEye Director will always keep them clearly in view. This is ideal for classrooms and other environments where room layouts may be more challenging.
Benefits • M akes your meetings more productive by automatically locating active speakers and through simultaneous voice triangulation and face-finding accurately crops their image on to the display • M akes training more engaging for better retention of information, speeds user adoption, and delivers faster ROI through maximum ease of use and heightened meeting interaction • Installs quickly and easily to any Polycom HDX or RealPresence Group series room telepresence system with a single camera-to codec connection • F lexible viewing capability utilizing both cameras with a direct-cut going from speaker to speaker or the preset room view allowing for users to see the whole room before framing the active speaker

Microsoft Lync Solutions
Polycom offers the broadest portfolio of video solutions that are standards-based and work natively with Microsoft Lync. We've not only designed our solutions to work seamlessly with Microsoft Lync but we have designed them to be intuitive and familiar for the user. Your users will be productive on day one.
SOLUTION BRIEF
Polycom Solutions for Microsoft® UC Environments Complete voice and video solutions that extend Microsoft unified communications and empower user collaborative experiences Benefits • Broadest portfolio—Select from the full line of purpose-built solutions optimized for Lync or Polycom standards-based, interoperable voice, video, telepresence, and video content management solutions • Direct integration—Polycom solutions integrate and interoperate with Microsoft® UC suites including Microsoft® Lync® without gateways, resulting in lower total cost of ownership (TCO) and a better user experience • Workflow integration— With Microsoft and Polycom, people communicate through applications they use every day, including Microsoft® Office ® and Microsoft® SharePoint® • Secure business-to-business (B2B) communications— Communicate with federated partners and customers securely across firewalls, through Microsoft® Edge Server • Multivendor UC support— Polycom® RealPresence® Platform supports Polycom, Cisco® CUCM and Microsoft Lync environments in the same virtual meeting room, allowing customers to plan the migration to Microsoft Lync while maximizing existing investment
The challenge Dynamic work environments are made-up of people on the move and virtual teams across different time zones. This makes it challenging to access an expert or to secure information. You need a communication solution that anchors fast-moving teams and enables communication from any device, anywhere; and critical to your success, and ease of use and HD quality voice and video to help drive user adoption. And communication tools that integrate with applications you use daily that are managed through a single interface to streamline deployment and speed your return on investment (ROI). In an increasingly visual society, easy access to real-time and on-demand video collaboration on social business platforms is becoming a key factor in facilitating communities within an organization, and in keeping distant teams connected.
Polycom and Microsoft connect people everywhere Polycom and Microsoft ® deliver a complete and interoperable end-to-end unified communications (UC) solution for voice, video, conferencing and collaboration and connect people from any device, and from any location. Your employees can collaborate with anybody securely and instantly. Microsoft ® Lync ® provides presence information within email and business applications such as Microsoft ® Outlook® and Microsoft ® SharePoint ® and allows users to find and initiate conversation without leaving the application. It also lets you collaborate with virtual teams inside as well as outside firewalls, with your colleagues working from home or on a business trip, or with federated customers and partners. Polycom solutions extend the benefit of Microsoft Lync and enable highly scalable and secure voice and video collaboration experiences in multiple environments beyond home and work office to conference rooms, hospital floors, and retail shops—all from within the familiar Microsoft Lync interface.
Beyond real-time communications Because communications need to extend beyond real-time exchanges, Polycom solutions provide a centralized video repository to receive Microsoft Lync-generated recordings and automatically publish them to Microsoft SharePoint for access by authorized team members. By creating a video content management layer within Microsoft SharePoint, Polycom makes it easy for employees to access video recordings and easy for administrators to manage and scale.
