The following multipoint topologies are given as examples. Actual deployments will depend on user
requirements and available infrastructure:
● Single company with Polycom and Cisco Infrastructure
 CTS and Polycom Telepresence Rooms in a corporate environment.
● Company to company via Service Provider
 Model 1: Mixed Polycom and Cisco infrastructure at one of the companies, Cisco only
infrastructure at the other.
 Model 2: Polycom only infrastructure at one of the companies, Cisco only infrastructure at the
other.
