PolyCom’s new affordable telepresence system will support full HD 1080P resolution and 720P at 60 frames per second. Polycom has also announced that it will offer an upgrade program for qualified RMX 2000 and HDX customers who want the new high definition equipment.PolyCom’s new high definition standards supposedly work flawlessly with their existing line of telepresence solutions and software packages. Polycom telepresence solutions are part of the industry’s most comprehensive architecture for enterprise-wide visual communication that unites telepresence with high resolution video conferencing, content management and supporting services.
Polycom VP Joe Sigrist:
Customers are looking for telepresence offerings that fit within a broader solution for enterprise-wide visual communication, and Polycom is delivering a comprehensive solution. These new telepresence offerings extend Polycom’s industry-leading telepresence portfolio, giving customers a range of options for different application, space and budget requirements that fit within a comprehensive architecture allowing them to video-enable their entire organization. Supporting enhanced levels of HD resolution up to 1080p gives customers the flexibility to adapt telepresence to their specific network and application needs today and as those needs evolve over time.
The addition of full high definition video to PolyCom’s otherwise extensive line of telepresence offerings, make it a strong contender in the emerging telepresence market. The Polycom HDX 8006 package is available now starting at $17,499, which is significantly less than competing high definition telepresence solutions offered by other companies. The package includes the proprietary codec, an EagleEye 1080p camera, remote and microphone array, requiring you to provide your own monitors and computer system to complete the setup.
