About the Polycom® RealPresence Collaboration
ServerVirtual Edition System
The RealPresence Collaboration Server Virtual Edition system is a high performance, scalable,
IP-network (H.323 and SIP) MCU that provides feature-rich and easy-to-use multipoint
voice and video conferencing.
The MCU can be used as a standalone device to run voice and video conferences or it can be
used as part of a solution provided by Polycom. This solution may include the following
components:
• Polycom® RSS™ 4000 - provides one-touch recording and secure playback on video
conferencing systems, tablets and smartphones, or from your Web browser.
• Polycom® Distributed Media Application™ (DMA™) system - provides call control and
MCU virtualization with carrier-grade redundancy, resiliency and scalability.
• Polycom Real Presence Resource Manager - centrally manages, monitors and delivers
Cloud based Video as a Service (VaaS) and enterprise video collaboration.
• Polycom® RealPresence® Access Director™ (RPAD) - removes communication barriers
and enables internal and external teams to collaborate more easily and effectively over
video.
The following diagram describes the multipoint video conferencing configuration with the
Collaboration Server as a standalone system.
