HDX RealTime: Complementary approaches
• Generic: Media-over-ICA • Unmodified softphone ○ Very broad app compatibility J
• Audio-video traffic transported over ICA
• Citrix audio/video codecs, echo cancellation, jitter buffering, etc., to maximize audio-video quality
• Optimized: Peer-to-peer • Softphone modified or hooked to offload media processing to user device ○ Maximum server scalability J
• Real-time audio-video traffic bypasses Citrix server ○ Zero degradation J
(no “hairpinning”)

• VXI collaboration solutions enable integrating rich media, voice, and video collaboration within a virtual desktop
• Cisco VXC Linux-based devices leverage Citrix’s Virtual Channel SDK for inter-process communication to offload media processing and improve user performance while making video and audio calls
• Offloading of audio calls (and video in future) on repurposed Windows PCs increases lifespan of existing assets
• Great news for call center initiatives using VXC thin clients or software appliances
