Making the Transition from the PBX to Unified Communications (UC)

We are now in a world of Unified Communications (UC). Your employees are using many devices and modalities to communicate. A phone is still needed, but its use as a “stand-alone” device is changing as end users now have a wider range of communications options afforded by UC including chat, video, and communications on phones or mobile devices (BYOD). As IM becomes the new dial tone (“U there?”, “Is now a good time to talk”), when your users want to talk, they expect to be able to place their phone call from their UC client. For most companies today, that UC client is Skype for Business

1 (formerly known

as Microsoft Lync). While the user may want to place their phone call from their UC client, they also want to be able to use a telephone dial pad to dial numbers,

access features with convenient feature keys, and be able to choose between using a handset, headset, or speakerphone—and they want to use their phones in ways that are fully integrated with Skype for Business.

Challenges

Transitioning from “Voice/IP PBX” to Unified Communications

Supporting new work models such as teleworking and shared office spaces

Finding the right phone and conference phone for each user and room environment

Many IT departments currently supporting Lync are finding they do not need the traditional PBX or IP PBX anymore. They already own the Client Access Licenses (CAL) needed to “voice enable” their Skype for Business / Lync environment or an upgrade to the license is affordable and easily justified. As existing phones and the IP PBX are fully depreciated or as the lease term expiration nears, many are considering making the switch to Skype for Business in order to reduce operating costs and allow end users to seamlessly communicate with more devices and modalities. Some companies are also reducing real estate costs with teleworking and shared office/hoteling workspace configurations. Skype for Business, with the right selection of phones, fits equally well for these growing, non-traditional work environments as well as in the traditional office environment. Polycom’s large selection of Microsoft qualified products helps simplify the transition from “PBX/IP PBX” to “Unified Communications with Skype for Business”. Many Enterprise-sized companies have started the transition to voice-enable Skype for Business / Lync with a limited “Lync voice trial” to evaluate which phones best fit end-user and room environment use cases. The same practice of doing a small scale trial for evaluation purposes will be equally applicable for forthcoming releases of Skype for Business. Polycom has endpoint and room solutions that match any user profile and office environment need for voice — and for video.

Trends Influencing Growth of Voice in Skype for Business / Microsoft Lync

“Lync Voice” is growing double digits per quarter, faster than any other IP PBX vendor

Selecting the Right Phones

Selection Decision Points When making decisions on choosing phones for a Skype for Business or Lync voice deployment, the following topics will likely be discussed with Polycom, with your channel partner or with your service provider:

Skype for Business/Lync Online, Lync On-Premises Server, or Hybrid installation

Phone vs Client/headset or BYOD

User profiles and feature needs

Microsoft qualified phone choices

Conference rooms

Investment protection

Planning, Network Assessments and Services

Skype for Business/Lync Online, Lync On-Premises Server, or Hybrid installation Small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) without full time IT/Telecom staff will typically choose a service provider or channel partner and rely on the their expertise for recommendations on a suitable Microsoft UC architecture and phone selection. Enterprises who will manage some or all aspects of their own Microsoft UC deployment will play a more active role in designing their architecture. Some enterprises choose to engage consultants in considering their deployment strategy. Many customers begin the decision making process with a small scale Lync voice trial. The same practice of doing a limited trial ahead of the planned migration would apply equally well for Skype for Business. Today, if a Lync 2013 or Lync 2010 server is deployed on premises, the full range of Lync qualified phones is available for selection. Skype for Business Online provides many of the features and capabilities we typically associate with real-time communications—IM, video and desktop collaboration features. What has been missing in the last few years with Lync Online is the ability to place PSTN

2 calls. Microsoft

recently announced that PSTN calling with Skype for Business Online will begin to roll out in North America in the 2

nd half of 2015. PSTN services will expand to other countries in 2016. At Enterprise

Connect 2015, Microsoft announced that “Polycom’s VVX business media phones will be the first phones to support PSTN calling in Office 365”. For many customers, this announcement will heavily influence the choice of desktop phones in favor of the Polycom VVX Business Media Phones over other available choices. The initial “preview’ rollout of the Office 365 “Cloud PBX with PSTN Calling” is U.S. only at this time. Cloud PBX with PSTN Calling provides users with the ability to make and receive traditional phone calls in their Skype for Business client, and to manage these calls using hold, resume, forward and transfer. This preview is built on the enterprise voice technology available in Lync Server and Skype for Business Server, and runs on Azure. Enterprises moving to Office 365 requiring the full set of current Enterprise Voice features available on Lync 2013 or Skype for Business 2015 Servers may need to rely on hybrid deployments. SMBs may also continue to find a suitable solution with Service Providers who are hosting a Skype for Business / Lync solution as a managed service.

Phone choices fall into two categories, those with embedded Lync clients and SIP phones qualified with Lync. An example of a popular Polycom phone with an embedded Lync Client is the Polycom CX600. An example of a conference phone in this category is the Polycom CX3000. Microsoft also qualifies IP phones through their 3rd Party Interoperability Program (3PIP). Popular Polycom phones that are qualified with Lync under this program include the Polycom VVX Series Business Media Phones and the Polycom SoundStation Duo and SoundStation IP 5000 conference phones. Before we dive into a phone model comparison, we should first look at the use case for a USB phone.

Phone vs Client/Headset or BYOD

Some small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) may be told that “You don’t need phones. Just use headsets and BYOD for all your calls”. There are some notable use case objections to a headset and BYOD only strategy. Most users will not want to be “tethered to a corded headset” all day when working at their PC. Bluetooth headsets can be used with PCs or users’ personal mobile devices, but batteries on both headsets and the smartphones or tablets can end up at ‘zero charge’ leaving the user with no way to make a call. A USB phone like the Polycom CX300 R2 offers PC users more choices than “only a headset”. With the CX300 R2 USB phone attached to the user’s PC, the user can make a call with the choice of a handset, speakerphone or headset (via headset jack on back of the phone). Users will also appreciate being able to have access to a telephone dial pad and feature keys like mute, and volume control. Headset/client-only users are sometimes distracted by having to find these controls in the Lync client while they are working. As the USB phone is powered from the USB connection, the USB phone is like having a “telephone insurance policy” for Lync client users who use Bluetooth headsets and BYOD clients when their headset reaches ‘zero battery’. Your employees will likely be using many devices—phones, UC clients with headsets, and BYOD—the choice depends on where they are and what is the best user experience from the choice of devices they have available. When users are sitting at their desk, the CX300 R2 USB phone or an ‘always on’ phone like the ones we will consider next will often provide a better user experience. USB Phone or ‘Always On’ Phone with More Feature Keys? While the CX300 R2 USB phone can work for users who are comfortable with using the Skype for Business or Lync client, there are several reasons one might choose an entry level “always on” phone like the Polycom VVX 300 or Polycom VVX 310 (the 310 model offers GigE ports). When you are using the CX300 R2 USB phone or a headset with a Lync client, the PC must have completed its “boot up” sequence including launching Skype for Business / Lync. If you are late to the office because of bad traffic and you need to quickly get on that morning conference call, you won’t want to have to wait for your PC to boot up to join the call. A low cost phone like a VVX 300 or VVX 310 will always be on and ready to make or receive calls. The VVX series phones, as of UC Software release 5.3, also support meeting pop-up reminders and outlook calendar integration, making joining scheduled calls very easy. Another important benefit of having phones like the VVX series is access to more feature keys. If the CX300 R2

USB phone user needs to transfer the call, there is no key labeled “transfer” on the phone. The operation is easy enough to do from the Lync client, but for someone who is used to a using a phone coming from a PBX environment, they will expect to find a key or soft key labeled “Transfer” on the phone. Or consider the “Call Park” feature—any user in an open office environment who desires privacy and needs to park their call and pick up again in a nearby vacant “huddle room” or conference room would use the “Call Park” feature. Having “Park” as a feature key on a phone is much more intuitive then remembering that you have to hover over a Lync client’s phone/mic icon to initiate a hold/transfer operation where ”parking a call” is an option. The VVX phones have visible soft keys labeled “Transfer” and “Park” while you are on an active call. The CX300 R2 USB phone does not.

User Profiles and Feature Needs While a VVX 300/310 may be a good choice for many office users, looking at user profiles and features is important to select the correct phone type for each user’s needs. When you start using more features, some of the available features are easier to use with a larger screen than you get on an entry level VVX 300/310. This is where a “hands on” experience can be beneficial in selecting phone models. Schedule a visit to a Polycom office or your Polycom channel reseller’s office to see the different models. Many larger customers plan for a Lync voice trial with a variety of phone models to compare how different phones operate. In considering phone models, one needs to understand the various user profiles and use cases associated with their profiles. Will the managers and executives be answering their own calls or will they have an administrative assistant doing this? Will knowledge workers want to see individual voice mail listings, look at presence status of their team ‘Lync favorites’, join conference calls from a scheduled conference calls list? If yes, than a larger screen display on the phone makes it easier to navigate and access these features and consequently increases productivity. Are certain individuals acting in the role of an attendant? They may want a phone that supports expansion modules. Up to 3 expansion modules can be connected to any of the VVX models. Figure 1: User Profiles / Use cases

In the early days of Office Communicator 2007 through Lync 2010, the Polycom CX600 was the most popular phone sold for Microsoft UC environments. However, the VVX Business Media phones now have had 4 major software release (UCS 4.1, UCS 5.0, UCS 5.1, and more recently UCS 5.3) that have sequentially added more and more Lync features to the VVX phones over time, both gaining feature parity with the CX600 in terms of “table stakes’ features and also exceeding the features available on the

CX600 in many other areas. The CX600 has 2 Ethernet ports and features like Contacts, Photos, Message waiting indicator, Survivability, E911 (US only), Call Park, Individual Voice Mail listings, Calendar, Join Conference, “Better Together” operation with Lync client, and an integrated Lync call log—it has been the right mix of features for thousands of customers over a number of years. The lower cost CX500 model only has one Ethernet port and does not support “Better Together” operation via USB so is therefore better suited for wall phones common areas, and lobbies. The software in the CX500 and CX600 running the phone’s feature operation is an embedded Lync client named “Microsoft Lync Phone Edition” designed by Microsoft. According to Microsoft Product Lifecycle information, mainstream support for Microsoft Lync Phone Edition software is through 04/10/2018 with extended support available until 04/11/2023, aligning with Microsoft’s lifecycle support plans for Lync Server 2013. In contrast to the CX600 and CX500, the Polycom VVX Series Business Media phones are VoIP (OpenSIP) phones that are qualified by Microsoft under the Microsoft 3

rd Party Interoperability Program

(3PIP). Until recently, the next step in the phone selection decision process was often comparing the CX600 phone, a proven and popular office phone with an embedded Lync client designed specifically for Lync to the VVX model phones like the VVX 300, VVX 400, VVX 500, and VVX 600. With the latest UCS 5.3 release, the VVX series phones now offers the most requested features that the CX600 offers, and now adds many more capabilities and features—Boss/Admin (Shared Line Appearance), 802.1x support , color expansion modules with contacts’ presence indicators , Open SIP registration (non-Lync IP PBX) support , group paging , push to talk, Electronic Hook Switch (EHS) support for headset features, touch screen interfaces (VVX 500/600) , video camera options (VVX 500/600), USB Headset Support (VVX 500/600) , and Bluetooth headset support (VVX 600). The VVX series is the phone platform where Polycom’s current feature development for Skype for Business is focused. While the CX600 may be still a suitable fit for some customers, the VVX series phones now offer a far more compelling feature set and more capabilities. With the recent announcement by Microsoft that the VVX phones would be the 1

st

phones to support PSTN calling in O365—it’s pretty clear that the VVX phones are the phones that Polycom now strongly recommends. With more features supported however, there is more feature configuration involved for the VVX series phones compared to the CX models like the CX600. With tools like Polycom’s Zero Touch Provisioning tool, feature configuration on a large scale deployment is made easier. Event Zero’s UC Commander also supports VVX phone provisioning with a versatile and powerful layered provisioning approach. UC Commander recently earned the “Polycom Ready” logo as a Polycom Technology Partner. Figure 2 on the following page represents the VVX series models starting with the VVX 201 (new in 2015), VVX 300 and VVX 310 with a monochrome displays. The VVX 400 and VVX 410 have larger color display and more lines, but still “button operated”. The VVX 500 and VVX 600 have touchscreen displays with the VVX 600 having the larger display. Having a larger color screen can be very useful. The concept of having features being “presence aware’ and displaying the contact’s presence status changes the communications experience. Presence status informs our communications choices. The VVX 300 or 310 supports showing the users own line plus 5 favorites for whom we will see presence status. The VVX 400 and 410 supports showing the users own line plus 11 favorites in color. Color makes it easier to see ‘available’, ’away’ and other extended presence status indicators at a glance. Seeing the extended presence status of the person we are about to call listed as “Do not disturb” allows us to choose leaving them a voicemail instead of calling them directly. Seeing a presence status of “Away” would make dialing their cellphone number from their contact card the proper calling choice if we have an urgent matter to discuss. A color expansion module can be added to any VVX model, but it probably makes more sense to add it to a VVX 400, VVX 500, or VVX 600 when an expansion module is

VVX 600 with color touchscreen and Bluetooth headset support

needed. The executive user and/or their assistant may want to have the expansion module attached to their VVX phone. Added expansion modules mean more favorites are shown. Having expansion modules also gives one button press access to the favorites contact cards. The VVX 600 is the only model that natively supports Bluetooth headsets, if that is a user requirement. The VVX 201, VVX 300 and VVX 400 have 10/100Base-TX Ethernet while the VVX 310, VVX 410, VVX500 and VVX 600 each support GigE. Figure 2: Polycom VVX Series Desktop Phone Selection for Skype for Business / Lync

Figure 3 below represents the CX series model choices. The CX100 speakerphone or the CX300 R2 USB phones work well for full time telecommuters who might consider getting by with the Skype for Business client or as a “2

nd phone” for an employee’s ‘home office’ for early or late day calls.

The SoundPoint series phones are not detailed in this selection guide. Although the SoundPoint phones also qualified for Lync, the VVX models offer far more features than SoundPoint phones. If you already own SoundPoint phones from using them with an IP PBX prior to migrating to Lync, you can bring them along to your Lync installation and realize some benefit from your previous phone investment. However, it is still recommended that you consider the user profiles and their feature needs to see where the Lync feature limitations of the already owned SoundPoint phones may fall short of user requirements and expectations. As mentioned before, the VVX series phones are where the Skype for Business (Lync) feature development is happening at Polycom. Conference Rooms and Boardrooms Space planning websites cite the conference room ratios typically range from one conference room to 10 employees in an all open office environment and one conference room per 20 employees in a private office-rich environment. Some executive private offices have around the table meeting room space within the executive’s office. So, for a company with 500 employees, one might expect to deploy 25 to 50 or more conference room phones. Selection of a conference phone can consider:

Better Together operation with Lync (CX3000)

Analog and IP line support (SoundStation Duo)

Conference stations that support Lync Video (CX5100, CX5500)

OpenSIP qualified solutions with Lync (SoundStation IP 5000, SoundStation Duo, CX5500, SoundStructure)

Large rooms, classrooms, boardrooms (SoundStructure) Figure 4: Conference Room Audio Choices

For a company that selects CX600 as a phone for most workers, it would make sense to choose the CX3000 for the conference phone as the user interface for both devices is most similar. The SoundStation IP 5000 will also be a popular choice for small conference rooms and executive offices with a small footprint on tables and mic range of 7 feet (2.1 m). The SoundStation Duo offers both IP and

VOICE SELECTION GUIDE FOR SKYPE FOR BUSINESS / MICROSOFT® LYNC®

10

circuit-switched telephony platform support with failover/failback to analog and a mic range of 10 feet (3m). The CX5100 Unified Conference Station is a USB only option that, in addition to having an microphone range of 20 feet (6 m), offers a 360 degree panoramic Lync video experience with a 2

nd video

view of the active speaker in 1080p HD video. The CX5500 Unified Conference Station offers the same audio and video performance as the CX5100 when plugged in via USB, but also doubles as an audio-only conference phone from its control panel display for making calls when not plugged in via USB. The SoundStructure is an installed audio solution that can accommodate larger rooms and classrooms or provide optimal/balance audio pickup in boardrooms. Investment Protection A customer with IP PBX’s who wishes to consider a future migration to a voice-enabled Skype for Business solution should not be purchasing vendor proprietary sets today. Most IP PBXs support OpenSIP phones, so these customers should consider the Polycom VVX series phones for end of life (EOL) non-supported phone replacement in their existing PBX environments. For conference rooms, consider the Polycom OpenSIP qualified conference room solutions mentioned. For example, Cisco or Avaya IP PBX customers who also use Lync for UC should consider the CX5500 Unified Conference Station if they have not yet made a decision to voice enable Lync to replace their PBX. The CX5500 serves a dual role as the conference phone for audio only calls and as a USB plug-and-play Lync video device. One can register the “OpenSIP” phone portion of the CX5500 to the IP PBX now, and then register it to Lync instead later if/when the future voice migration to Lync or Skype for Business takes place. Users can enjoy video collaboration with Lync today with the CX5500’s 360 degree panoramic Lync video experience and its 2nd video view of the active speaker in 1080p HD video when plugged in via USB. It’s estimated that nearly 95% of the world’s conference rooms don’t yet support video, and the CX5500 is an compelling solution for customers who have the necessary Lync licenses to support video collaboration, regardless of their decision making progress with respect to migrating users off their legacy IP PBX to Lync for voice.

Polycom® CX5100 Unified Conference Station for Microsoft® Lync®

The IT department’s challenge is to make video meetings in conference rooms more effective, reduce video support calls and eliminate the need for “in room” video support services to get video meetings started. Are your video conference room users distracted by video or audio quality issues? Are they having trouble seeing or identifying who is speaking? Are they finding it hard to pan the camera to focus attention on the active speaker? Are they frustrated by trying to learn another user interface? Solve these challenges and video conference room use goes up. More room use translates to fully realizing the benefits of video collaboration and achieving your expected return on investment. For Microsoft® Lync® users, the Polycom® CX5100 unified conference station answers these challenges with a truly unique around-the-table video collaboration solution.

More productive meetingsOptimized for use with Microsoft Lync, the Polycom CX5100 unified conference station brings the powerful collaboration capabilities of Microsoft Lync voice, video and content together through a unique 360-degree panoramic view of the entire room. A second HD video view of the active speaker is also sent at 1080p video resolution using advanced technology that automatically focuses on the current speaker and tracks the flow of conversation to enable richer, more interactive communication. No more reaching for a video control device. It’s a “hands-free” experience that allows you to forget about the technology and simply focus on your meeting.

Easy to deploy and use An intuitive design with full plug-and-play functionality makes it easy to deploy and use the Polycom CX5100. With little or no training, anyone with a laptop that has Microsoft Lync can walk into the room and simply plug the CX5100 unified conference station into their PC’s USB port and start sharing voice and 360-degree panorama video. Control, invitations, and content sharing are handled through the familiar Microsoft Lync user interface your users already know and use every day. Removing the challenge of learning a remote control device means fewer support calls and fewer requests for “white glove” level support from the IT department.

Audio quality mattersThe Polycom CX5100 unified conference station features Polycom’s legendary audio, bringing the industry’s best voice quality to your Lync meeting with a dynamic range of 160 Hz to 22,000 Hz. Polycom® HD Voice™ and a microphone range of 20 feet (6 meters) means everyone in the room can be clearly heard, even at the end of the table. Optional extension microphones extend the range even further, if needed. While the CX5100 is a USB-only model, for customers needing standalone SIP VoIP for audio conferences, the Polycom® CX5500 unified conference station adds SIP telephony, eliminating the need to install a separate audio conference station in the room.

Polycom® CX5500 Unified Conference Station

The IT department’s challenge is to make video meetings in conference rooms more effective, reduce video support calls and eliminate the need for “in room” video support services to get video meetings started. Are your video conference room users finding it hard to pan the camera to focus attention on the active speaker? Are they frustrated by trying to learn another user interface? Do they need to make audio-only conference calls without having IT deploy a second conference phone? Solve these challenges for your Microsoft® Lync® users and conference room usage goes up. More room use translates to fully realizing the benefits of video collaboration and achieving your expected return on investment (ROI). For Microsoft Lync users, the Polycom CX5500 unified conference station answers these challenges with a truly unique around-the-table video collaboration solution.

More productive Lync video collaborationOptimized for use with Microsoft Lync, the Polycom CX5500 unified conference station brings the powerful collaboration capabilities of Microsoft Lync voice, video and content together through a unique 360-degree panoramic view of the entire room. A second HD video view of the active speaker is also sent at 1080p video resolution using advanced technology that automatically focuses on the current speaker and tracks the flow of conversation to enable richer, more interactive communication. No more reaching for a video control device. It’s a “hands-free” experience that allows you forget about the technology and simply focus on your meeting.

Easy to deploy and use An intuitive design with full plug-and-play functionality makes it easy to deploy and use the Polycom CX5500. With little or no training, anyone with a laptop that has Microsoft Lync can walk into the room and simply plug the CX5500 unified conference station into their PC’s USB port and start sharing voice and 360-degree panorama video. Control, invitations, and content sharing are through the familiar Microsoft Lync user interface your users already know and use every day. Removing the challenge of learning a remote control device means fewer support calls and no need for “in room” support from the IT department to get video conference calls started.

Audio quality mattersThe Polycom® CX5500 unified conference station features Polycom’s legendary audio bringing the industry’s best voice quality to your Lync meeting with a dynamic range of 160Hz to 22,000Hz. Polycom® HD Voice™ and a microphone range of 20 feet (6 m) means everyone in the room can be clearly heard, even at the end of the table. Optional microphones extend the range even further, if needed. Customers can also make voice-only calls from a CX5500 when it is registered as a SIP phone to either a Lync server or an IP PBX, eliminating the need to for IT to install a separate audio conference station in the room.

Benefits• Enable richer communications

by automatically focusing on the active speaker in true HD while tracking the conversation flow

• Fully engage all participants by providing a 360° panoramic view of the conference room

• Reduce training costs with simple USB plug-and-play functionality that requires little or no training

• Dual use—make audio-only calls when registered as SIP phone to either a Lync server or your existing IP PBX

Key features• 360° 1080p USB camera with

active speaker detection

• Active speaker and panoramic video stream output

• 20 foot (6 m) microphone pickup range

• 160 Hz–22kHz audio processing

• Optimized for use with Microsoft Lync 2013

Polycom® CX5500 Unified Conference Station

The IT department’s challenge is to make video meetings in conference rooms more effective, reduce video support calls and eliminate the need for “in room” video support services to get video meetings started. Are your video conference room users finding it hard to pan the camera to focus attention on the active speaker? Are they frustrated by trying to learn another user interface? Do they need to make audio-only conference calls without having IT deploy a second conference phone? Solve these challenges for your Microsoft® Lync® users and conference room usage goes up. More room use translates to fully realizing the benefits of video collaboration and achieving your expected return on investment (ROI). For Microsoft Lync users, the Polycom CX5500 unified conference station answers these challenges with a truly unique around-the-table video collaboration solution.

More productive Lync video collaborationOptimized for use with Microsoft Lync, the Polycom CX5500 unified conference station brings the powerful collaboration capabilities of Microsoft Lync voice, video and content together through a unique 360-degree panoramic view of the entire room. A second HD video view of the active speaker is also sent at 1080p video resolution using advanced technology that automatically focuses on the current speaker and tracks the flow of conversation to enable richer, more interactive communication. No more reaching for a video control device. It’s a “hands-free” experience that allows you forget about the technology and simply focus on your meeting.

Easy to deploy and use An intuitive design with full plug-and-play functionality makes it easy to deploy and use the Polycom CX5500. With little or no training, anyone with a laptop that has Microsoft Lync can walk into the room and simply plug the CX5500 unified conference station into their PC’s USB port and start sharing voice and 360-degree panorama video. Control, invitations, and content sharing are through the familiar Microsoft Lync user interface your users already know and use every day. Removing the challenge of learning a remote control device means fewer support calls and no need for “in room” support from the IT department to get video conference calls started.

Audio quality mattersThe Polycom® CX5500 unified conference station features Polycom’s legendary audio bringing the industry’s best voice quality to your Lync meeting with a dynamic range of 160Hz to 22,000Hz. Polycom® HD Voice™ and a microphone range of 20 feet (6 m) means everyone in the room can be clearly heard, even at the end of the table. Optional microphones extend the range even further, if needed. Customers can also make voice-only calls from a CX5500 when it is registered as a SIP phone to either a Lync server or an IP PBX, eliminating the need to for IT to install a separate audio conference station in the room.

Benefits• Enable richer communications

by automatically focusing on the active speaker in true HD while tracking the conversation flow

• Fully engage all participants by providing a 360° panoramic view of the conference room

• Reduce training costs with simple USB plug-and-play functionality that requires little or no training

• Dual use—make audio-only calls when registered as SIP phone to either a Lync server or your existing IP PBX

Key features• 360° 1080p USB camera with

active speaker detection

• Active speaker and panoramic video stream output

• 20 foot (6 m) microphone pickup range

• 160 Hz–22kHz audio processing

With little or no training, anyone with a laptop that has Microsoft Lync can walk into the room and simply plug the CX5100 unified conference station into their PC’s USB port and start sharing voice and 360-degree panorama video. Control, invitations, and content sharing are handled through the familiar Microsoft Lync user interface your users already know and use every day. Removing the challenge of learning a remote control device means fewer support calls and fewer requests for “white glove” level support from the IT department.

Audio quality mattersThe Polycom CX5100 unified conference station features Polycom’s legendary audio, bringing the industry’s best voice quality to your Lync meeting with a dynamic range of 160 Hz to 22,000 Hz. Polycom® HD Voice™ and a microphone range of 20 feet (6 meters) means everyone in the room can be clearly heard, even at the end of the table. Optional extension microphones extend the range even further, if needed. While the CX5100 is a USB-only model, for customers needing standalone SIP VoIP for audio conferences, the Polycom® CX5500 unified conference station adds SIP telephony, eliminating the need to install a separate audio conference station in the room.
