Polycom® Voice Video Interface Unit Product Family - V2IU Converged and Secure UCC Solutions Now anyone can communicate across the public Internet, safely and securely Since the first IP-capable voice and video conferencing systems were released in the 1990's, organizations around the world have been looking forward to the day when unified collaborative communication (UCC) applications can be routed over the public Internet as easily as they are routed within corporate intranets. Working together with industry leaders, Polycom is defining solutions for Secure UCC sessions utilizing the Internet. Polycom's Converged and Secure UCC Initiative seeks to broaden the reach of UCC applications by making it possible for everyone to use standards-based, network security tools and techniques. The goal is to enable and simplify collaboration at a distance between distributed individuals and workgroups, both inside a company as well as outside. Routing UCC applications across the public Internet increases the effectiveness and productivity of distributed individuals and workgroups. It extends the geographic reach of UCC applications to a much larger group of colleagues, suppliers, partners, and clients. It also allows UCC sessions to become more spontaneous and cost effective compared to traditional ISDN implementations. Polycom's focus is on providing the ultimate communications experience in all major environments, to the broadest possible audience. Our Converged and Secure UCC initiative will first make it possible to hold sessions across the Internet, offering access to more users. Only Polycom is committed to growing the marketplace by establishing ubiquitous access to our UCC solutions.
