Chapter 1- Introducing the QSX System
The Polycom QSX™ system allows users to instantly share anything on their computer
screens with remote locations via the Web or with other QSX or VSX locations. Users
don’t need to learn new applications, upload documents, pay monthly service fees, or pre-
schedule meetings. It’s an easy and secure way to share content with remote sites. QSX
systems have the following features and benefits:
Easy one-time setup – Simply plug in your IP connection, power and VGA cables. Easy
Web interface for additional optional configuration.
Easy to use – Instant content sharing without wasting time on downloading applications,
uploading documents, advance scheduling or user training.
Open architecture – Works with any content, any phone systems and any type of
computer or VGA input source- even those belonging to presenters who can’t get access
to the network.
Multi-point capability –
Each QSX session shares content directly with up to ten sites
per QSX via a standard web browser. Scale to even more sites by connecting directly
with up to four other QSX units or leverage a Polycom MGC conference bridge for large
scale meetings.
Cost effective – The QSX provides unlimited content sharing. It pays for itself quickly
because there are no monthly charges or per-minute fees.
Content security – Keep complete control over your document. AES (Advanced
Encryption Standard) media encryption on QSX to QSX calls, secure login for Web
browser access, and the ability to share information without releasing control of it ensure
your content is protected.
Simply connect your computer to the QSX VGA cable and share content, including
business applications, proprietary software, the Internet, images, and software demos –
all at the touch of a button. The QSX user interface provides convenient information
screen (Info Screen) overlays that show presenter/viewer locations and connection
information, as well as the Web address and login information for remote participants.
Usage Overview
QSX systems allow content sharing with other QSX systems and with remote sites via the
Web. Alternately, QSX systems allow content sharing with Polycom videoconferencing
equipment including the VSX 8000, VSX 7000e or the VSX 7000s with Visual Concert.
Finally, the QSX is interoperable with the Polycom MGC bridge, allowing you to scale
the number of web, QSX and video participants in a meeting based on the number of
ports and bandwidth available on the MGC itself.
