Introducing the Polycom VSX 7000e,
a split video conferencing solution for
medium to large-sized conference rooms.

Designed for flexibility, the Polycom VSX 7000e split systems are ideal for medium to large conference rooms where there is a requirement to have the camera and video system separated; for instance, configurations that include plasma or LCD displays or projection screens. The VSX 7000e configurations include a wide range of options that will match the needs of most meeting rooms, options such as data sharing, multiple cameras and video bridging capability.

Like the other award-winning products in the VSX line, the Polycom VSX 7000e includes Polycom StereoSurround™ for the best audio in the market, as well as Polycom Pro-Motion™ for optimal motion handling and video resolution. VSX 7000e customers can combine the SoundStation VTX1000® conference phone with their system, allowing them to make video calls through their conference phone and to use it as their stereo microphone, eliminating clutter and wires on the conference table. Take your choice of how you want to call – IP, SIP or ISDN – and be assured that your video conference is secure with the most up-to-date encryption standards.

The Polycom VSX 7000e makes it easy to get started by giving you the option of connecting either a VGA or TV display as your main display. For applications that require content sharing, connect both a TV (for People) and a VGA (for Content). The VSX 7000e is designed for maximum flexibility combined with easy installation and setup – allowing any user to quickly and easily configure their VSX 7000e system for immediate video conferencing.

The different connection options, all of which are plug-and-play, allow you to connect a VCR for record and playback, a second camera (document camera or another video source), and attach a PC to display content from the Web or from a local or network directory. Once these other video and content sources are connected, users can easily show a movie file, PowerPoint® presentation, pictures, live video feeds, as well as play audio files – all while participating in a video conference. And the other participants in the video conference can always see the people speaking as well as the content being shown, imitating the environment of everyone being in the same room.

Integrate your conference room with VideoCentric's VC Commander. Fully compatible with the TANDBERG series of videoconferencing systems, and a wide range of displays, DVDs and amplifiers.

The Video Conference Commander designed, developed and distributed by VideoCentric is a Touch Screen controller for all modern VideoConferencing systems and their associated peripherals.
