Setting the RMX for Integration
Into Microsoft Environment
Overview
Appendix H
The Polycom® Visual Communications offers high quality video and
audio multipoint conferencing by integrating the Polycom network
devices and endpoints into Microsoft® platforms. The Polycom RMX
system can be integrated into the following Microsoft environments:
• Office Communications Server 2007 environment (Microsoft
Wave 13)
• Lync Server 2010 environment (Microsoft Wave 14)
Point-to-point and multipoint audio and video meetings can be initiated
from Office Communicator/Lync client, Windows Messenger and
Polycom video endpoints (HDX and VSX) when the environment
components are installed and configured.
Multipoint calls are enabled when the RMX is installed in the Microsoft
environment and is configured for unified communications. Routing to
conferences can be performed by the Office Communications Server/
Lync Server either by:
• Matched URI dialing - using the SIP URI address (both Office
Communications Server and Lync Server)
• Numerical dialing - enables a common dialing plan for Meeting
Rooms across Office Communications Server and H.323
infrastructures (not available in Lync server environment).
Only TLS connections to the RMX will work, TCP connections will not work.
