  2. Technology moves ahead….

  3. and keeps moving ahead….

  4. High Definition is Here! • Manufacturers in every part of the video industry are embracing the concept and standard of HD • But for an interactive application like video conferencing, HD is more than just a resolution

  5. Industry Standard Terms and Resolutions

  6. Why does UltimateHD matter? • Organizations are facing incremental communications challenges: • Globalization, mergers/acquisitions and outsourcing/offshoring • Travel restrictions/security, cultural/language differences, workforce mobility and telecommuting • UltimateHD enhances every communication allowing customers to: • Make informed decisions…faster • Experience every critical detail…perfectly • Share their complete work…demonstrate their full value • Enhanced communications delivers the competitive edge • Reduce product development cycle and speed time to market • Increase collaborative teamwork and efficient knowledge sharing • Improve relationships across the organization and extended teams • Leverage resources and increase profitability

  7. What are the benefits of UltimateHD? • High definition is only a measure of image resolution UltimateHD is an experience! • Polycom HDX improves each communication experience in every way with UltimateHD • HD Voice allows you to distinctly hear every sound you need to hear and none that you don’t • Eliminating conference fatigue while adding richness and clarity to each voice and audio input • HD Video provides the sharpest, clearest images in vivid, natural color and full motion • Never miss a single expression and savor every detail • HD Content allows you to share your work in any application • From PC screens to HD doc cams and DVD players your value will come through in perfect detail and full motion

  8. UltimateHD is for…. • Organizations committed to faster time to market, gaining a competitive edge, and saving valuable resources • Organizations that work globally over distance and/or interact with global customers, vendors or partners • Organizations that value the power of clear communication and leverage that as a key asset • Organizations that see the benefits of technology as a way to enhance their productivity as well as encourage and reward their employees

  9. Design/Manufacturing Current Challenges: • Dispersed project groups • In person meetings are, at times, the only option • Communicating with vendors and suppliers • Benefits of UltimateHD: • Enables disperse groups to work together to accomplish tasks faster, easier and with more synergy • Share even the smallest details over HD • Increase time to market and gain competitive edge

  10. Polycom RPX Telepresence Experience • Only true immersive telepresence solution that is standards-based and interoperable with traditional video conferencing • Highest quality audio and video in a truly immersive environment • Seamless visuals and transparent technology make this the best immersive experiencein the market

  11. THANK YOU

  12. Video over IP Deployment Challenges • Existing networking infrastructure is not “media-aware” • Firewalls block Media (Video/Audio) calls • Network Address Translation (NAT) breaks addressing • Video/Audio and data traffic on shared WAN pipes degrades voice and video quality • User Concerns • Dialing concerns • How do I call them? What should I dial? • Do I have to register with them? • Why can’t they call me? • Designing around the above problems is difficult and expensive with legacy CPE hardware

  13. How do you fix the problem? • NAT Avoidance • Uses techniques to avoid a firewall / NAT • May require additional CPE • NAT Traversal • Video calls traverse the firewall / NAT • Multiple methods available

  14. Public IP PROXY Public – Private IP TUNNELS Virtual Private Networks (VPN) One approach – Avoid the NAT problem

  15. Firewall Traversal Solutions • Application Layer Gateway (ALG) • Decentralized solution • Enables a firewall to become media aware without compromising security • H.460 Based Traversal • ITU defined NAT/FW traversal method • Centralized solution • Service provider model • Works with legacy firewalls

  16. Firewall Traversal Solutions • Application Layer Gateway (ALG) • Decentralized solution • Enables a firewall to become media aware without compromising security • H.460 Based Traversal • ITU defined NAT/FW traversal method • Centralized solution • Service provider model • Works with legacy firewalls

  17. Application Layer Gateway (ALG) • Resolves Network Address Translations issues • Media and protocol aware • Preserves all features (Encryption/Content Sharing) • Uses Stateful Packet Inspection • Dynamically opens and closes ports • Provides topology hiding to protect the H.323 Components (endpoints, bridges, gatekeepers) and data devices

  18. Application Layer Gateway (ALG) • ALG Pros • Security (intrinsic Firewall) • Dynamic Port utilization for call duration • Scalable - Enables Shortest Path Media Routing • Less costly – no extra bandwidth • Ideal for “fixed” video installations • Video endpoint registration not mandatory • Flexible dialing • Works with any endpoint • ALG Cons • Not practical for mobile work force

  19. V2IU in ALG Mode User at this location calls bill@video.123.com or tom@video.abc.com

  20. H.460 – Traversal of H.323 across NATs and Firewalls • H.460 ITU Standard • Extension to H.323 • Developed by Polycom, Radvision, Tandberg • Approved August 2005 • H.460 enables H.323 signalling and media to traverse NAT/FW installations • Utilizes a Traversal Server (TS) at a central location • Requires H.460 aware endpoints to register with Traversal Server (Polycom V/VSX Series Version 8.5 available now)

  21. H.460 Pros • Allows for IP calling with legacy firewalls • IP and Port issues resolved at Traversal Server • Simplistic for registered H.460 endpoints • Ideal for mobile users (road warriors / hot spots / home users) • H.460 Cons • Extra bandwidth may be needed at Traversal Server location • Requires endpoints to register with the Traversal Server • Scalability - all traffic routed through the host location (signaling and media) • Less Secure (Traversal Server may not be a Firewall) H.460 – Traversal Server

  22. V2IU in Traversal Server Mode (H.460) V2IU Traversal Server Mobile user registers with TS and calls host location using alias.

  23. Polycom can provide a hybrid solution Outside user does not have to register with Traversal Server

  24. Design/Manufacturing Current Challenges: • Dispersed project groups • In person meetings are, at times, the only option • Communicating with vendors and suppliers • Benefits of UltimateHD: • Enables disperse groups to work together to accomplish tasks faster, easier and with more synergy • Share even the smallest details over HD • Increase time to market and gain competitive edge
