Polycom announced a new modular group telepresence system: The Open Telepresence Experience 300 or OTX 300. The new system is a three-screen, six-seat telepresence environment based on their HDX video compression platform that uses an implementation of H.264 High Profile video compression algorithm requiring up to 50% less bandwidth than competing telepresence and videoconferencing platforms. The use of H.264 High Profile means a lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) as some customers will able to deploy HDX-based solutions like the OTX 300 using less bandwidth and potentially not require a re-engineering of their network to support telepresence at higher bandwidth with rigid Quality-of-Service requirements.
