Greater Definition, Higher Clarity, Half the Bandwidth

With the first and only H.264 High Profile implementation for real-time video, customers can immediately begin saving on bandwidth costs—up to 50%! With H.264 High Profile in Polycom® HDX® room telepresence solutions (shipping now) and on RMX Conference Platforms and Polycom Immersive Telepresence solutions in Q3 2010, Polycom continues bringing leading-edge, standards-based technologies to visual communication.

Now Less Delivers Much More
High Profile enables a dramatic reduction in the network resources necessary to video-enable organizations. It allows CIOs to meet budget challenges and power visual communication with fewer resources, thus limiting or avoiding costly network upgrades—all while remaining standards-based. Video deployments can now be extended to more sites, most cost effectively, and with greater quality, than ever before. In fact, in the first twelve months of ownership, a 5,000 person organization deploying a Polycom video network vs. a Cisco video network can see up to $2 million in savings.

Performance Gains Accelerate High Definition Adoption and Lower Costs
The shift from Baseline Profile to High Profile delivers gains in performance across the full bandwidth spectrum. As a result, High Definition systems benefit the most from High Profile, enabling accelerated adoption of HD communication across organizations. Branch offices, remote sites, rural locations, and more can now enjoy the benefits of HD quality.
