Polycom HDX systems with HD capability can send video in wide-screen, HD
format. For information about the resolution and frame rate for video
configured as People, refer to
information about frame rates for content, refer to
Closed Captions.
To send video in HD format, use any model of Polycom camera that supports
HD video and a Polycom HDX system capable of sending 720p or better video.
When the far site sends HD video, Polycom HDX 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). Polycom HDX 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.
