PCS-XG100 and PCS-XG77 high definition videoconferencing systems

bringing people and ideas together with greater clarity

Express yourself clearly with

Full HD 60p image quality

The PCS-XG100 lets you communicate more clearly and productively with detailpacked video conferences at

Full HD (1920 x 1080) resolution for exceptional realism.

(PCS-XG77: 720p).

With frame rates as high as 60fps, conferences are smoother and more natural. You’ll even enjoy

HD quality picture quality at low bit rates when network bandwidth is limited.

Richer, more rewarding communications: share video, voice and PC presentations with HD quality

Ideal for a wide range of business communications, the PCS-XG100 and PCS-XG77 videoconferencing systems offer superb picture and sound quality, plus smart features to enrich collaboration across your organisation.

Crystal-clear images from the high quality PTZ camera* are complemented by clear, natural sounding stereo audio. Dual streaming allows video and PC presentations to be shared simultaneously with viewers at a remote location. See ‘Near’ and ‘Far’ camera images plus PC presentations with exceptional layout flexibility on one, two or three connected video monitors. HD conferences can be streamed as live webcasts, or recorded to USB memory for easy sharing and review.

The integrated MCU (PCS-XG100 only) allows multi-point conferences over ISDN or IP, choose for either six sites or nine sites options via a simple software upgrade. What’s more, two PCS-XG100 systems can be cascaded without additional hardware to link

16 sites simultaneously.

Set-up is refreshingly straightforward, with quick booting so you’re ready for business faster. Operation is easy, too: just select a contact using the supplied remote commander to launch your conference at a touch.

* Also available as PCS-XG100S/XG77S ‘codec only’ version without PTZ camera.

Features

Express yourself clearly with Full HD

60p images (PCS-XG100)

Communicate more clearly and effectively with smooth, detailpacked video conferences at up to

Full HD (1920 x 1080) 60p resolution for exceptional realism. You’ll even enjoy HD quality picture quality at low bit rates when network bandwidth is limited. (NB: PCS-XG77 video resolution is HD 720 60p).

Smooth 30fps Full HD dual streaming

Send dual HD 1080p video streams simultaneously (camera image and

PC presentation) at a smooth 30 frames per second in accordance with H.239 standards. The other conference party can see both

Full HD (1920 x 1080) images simultaneously on two connected monitors.

See everything with triple monitor mode

Support for three video monitors allows full-size simultaneous views of ‘Far’ and ‘Near’ video sources

(via HDMI) on two separate screens, plus a third screen (via DVI-I) showing smooth, crisply detailed PC presentations.

Three images, one monitor

If you’ve only got one monitor, up to three separate images (Far, Near and

PC) can be displayed simultaneously with a choice of screen layout options: Full Screen, PinP, PandP, Side by Side or PandPandP.

High quality stereo audio

Using two PCS-A1 microphones ensures more natural, lifelike conferences with crisp, clear stereo sound. The built-in echo canceller makes speech even more naturalsounding and easier to follow.

Easy multi-point conferences

The in-built Multipoint Control

Unit (MCU) allows simultaneous connection between up to six or nine sites adding either the optional

PCSA-MCG106 or PCSA-MCG109.

Two PCS-XG100 units can also be cascaded to support a maximum of

16 sites, with no additional hardware needed.

Continuous Presence mode with

Voice Activation Switching

See everyone clearly with support for three-, four-, six- or nine-screen continuous-presence modes. Voice

Activated Switching automatically displays the active speaker on the largest sub screen alongside other participants, or can display the current speaker in full-screen mode.

Easy usability with Video Annotation

Add an optional tablet/pen interface to sketch notes and highlight your point clearly on shared data presentations.

Stable, consistent conferencing

Enjoy stable transmission of HD video, voice and data with Enhanced

Intelligent QoS™ (Quality of Service)

Functions that ensure fast, consistent data throughput that adapts transmission to take account of changing network conditions.

HD multicast streaming

Stream videoconferences across your corporate network as ‘live’ webcasts at 720p resolution for viewing on any networked PC and web browser.

USB recording

Record HD video (720p), voice and PC presentations direct to USB memory for easy storing and sharing.

Second camera support

Adding an optional second PTZ camera (Sony BRC/EVI series models) gives greater freedom to ensure every meeting participant is adequately covered – for example when seated around a boardroom table.

HDMI input

Easily connect an additional video source – such as a camcorder or document camera – via HDMI.

Highly secure

Keep your business private, just the way it should be. Support for

128-bit AES encryption ensures safe, highly secure voice/video/data conferences with other compliant systems.

Easy operation and quick start-up

Enjoy simple operation with the attractive, intuitive on-screen interface. Quick start-up from initial switch-on has you ready to start conferencing in less than a minute – far faster than many other systems.

One-touch Dialling

Enjoy the speed and convenience of one-touch dialling with the newly designed RFZ Remote Commander unit that does not have to be pointed directly towards the system.

Just browse and select from the thumbnail image any of up to 1000 stored contacts: up to four regularlyaccessed contacts can be shown on the home screen.

Easily switch between LAN and

WAN connections

Dual network interfaces allow easy switching between office-base LAN and WAN connections – saving time if you need to use the system both within an intranet environment and over the public Internet. Multipoint connections can also be made between LAN and WAN environments.
