Content Sharing Solution
Expanding Video Conferences to Voice Participants
Key Benefits of Polycom’s Video-QSX Content Sharing Solution
Expands the video conference to voice-only participants by allowing up to 10 voice-only participants to view the data
being shared.
Viewing the data from the video conference simply requires the voice-only participant to have a laptop with a web
browser - voice-only participants do not need any extra equipment.
Key stakeholders can participate fully in video conferences while traveling – no need to wait until everyone can be at a
location that is video-enabled.
QSX works with the VSX system without having to reconfigure or change any hardware or software settings on the unit
– true plug-and-play

As video conferencing becomes mission critical for optimal communications and collaboration, a common question arises:
“How can I share content with people in the meeting who don’t have video capabilities, or are traveling?” In a world where
mobile workers are constantly on the road, the lack of video capability can become a real obstacle to communication.
Polycom has the answer, combining VSX video conferencing solutions with the Polycom QSX web conferencing appliance.
Polycom makes video conferencing and content sharing easy to deploy, seamless to use and cost effective, allowing
companies to truly enhance group collaboration and boost productivity.
