Polycom HDX is a series of widely spread video conferencing endpoints for meeting rooms and conference halls, delivering HD 720 video quality (up to 1280×720 resolution) and supporting up to 3 screens.\"\"<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n

Polycom HDX endpoints (except for HDX 6000) have a built-in MCU and can be used to run multipoint video conferences (4×4) if an additional activation license is purchased.<\/p>\n

However, additional licenses are purchased seldom, while the endpoints stand idle in meeting rooms because they can be connected only to the endpoints in other meeting rooms. Meanwhile, they could be used inside the office to run video conferences.<\/p>\n

And we have found a solution!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Try TrueConf Server software video conferencing server which can be used in bundle with Polycom HDX. TrueConf Server Free has a built-in SIP\/H.323 gateway and supports up to 10 participants.<\/p>\n

This way you won\u2019t be able to activate your MCU. However,\u00a0 you can organize group video conferences between your endpoint and TrueConf client applications. Let\u2019s see how to do it.<\/p>\n

By the way, you can add support for group video conferencing\u00a0 to any other H.323\/SIP endpoint in the same way.<\/div>\n
