RealPresence Hosted Conferences
Lync 1010 and 2013 clients connect to a conference hosted on a Polycom Collaboration Server.
With this deployment architecture:
● Lync 2010 clients can join the conference using Lync 2010.
● Lync 2013 can use their SVC Codec's Temporal Scaling capability to send one video stream to and
from the Collaboration Server at multiple frame rates.
● There is one audio stream per direction.
● Lync clients place calls to a Virtual Meeting Room provisioned on the DMA, for example,
1234@video.domain.com
● Lync 2013 clients can dial into both mixed AVC/SVC and AVC only conferences.
● Lync clients dialing to a VMR, where the type of the conference is SVC/AVC mixed and AVC CP only
have their video decoded. The Collaboration Server sends encoded video to Lync 2013 participants.
