Binary Floor Control Protocol (Bfcp) Support For Tip Endpoints; Legacy Content For Tip Endpoints; Enable Noiseblock - Polycom RealPresence 1800 Administration Manual

TIP endpoints work at one of the above resolutions only. Any TIP endpoint not supporting the selected rate
and resolution is unable to receive the content. TIP endpoints supporting Version 7 don't receive any content
in content transcoding mode if the selected resolution is other than XGA 5fps @512K.
To set the multiple content resolution for TIP endpoints, you must set the TIP Compatibility option to Prefer
TIP in the Conference Profile under Profile Properties > Advanced tab.
To enable multiple resolutions (set content transcoding) on Cisco TIP endpoints:
1 In RMX Manager, go to RMX Management > Rarely Used > Conference Profiles.
2 In the Conference Profiles pane, double click on the profile to edit
3 Go to Video Quality and in the Content Video Definition section
4 Now enable Multiple Content Resolutions.
5 Select the appropriate content resolution and frame rate from the drop-down menu for the TIP
Encoder.
6 Click OK.
Binary Floor Control Protocol (BFCP)
Support for TIP endpoints
Support for Cisco Telepresence Interoperability Protocol (TIP) version 8, now allows TIP endpoints to
receive high-resolution content using Binary Floor Control Protocol (BFCP).
BFCP provides better coordinated access to conferencing resources.
For more information, see
Collaboration Server Technical Reference Guide.

Legacy Content for TIP Endpoints

In a TIP Compatibility > Prefer TIP conference, if a TIP endpoint doesn't have the required capabilities to
meet the content threshold based on the conference line rate, the RealPresence Collaboration Server
considers that TIP endpoint as legacy and sends content to it over the video channel.

Enable NoiseBlock™

The RealPresence Collaboration Server uses NoiseBlock,™ a heuristic algorithm, to monitor and lessen the
audio of AVC endpoints with high levels of non-speech background noise. This helps prevent those
endpoints from mistakenly become the active speaker, which could detract from the overall video
conferencing experience.
The NoiseBlock feature is supported for AVC endpoints only in Continuous Presence (CP) and in Mixed CP
and SVC conferences. In mixed CP and SVC conferences, the RealPresence Collaboration Server blocks
audio towards AVC-based endpoints only.
