Sony PCS-1 Videoconference System, Complete with Camera, Codec, and Microphone

Quality of Service Maintaining picture quality is paramount when conducting a videoconferencing meeting. Sony’s Adaptive Rate Control (ARC) feature automatically adjusts picture quality to changing network conditions while the Auto Repeat reQuest (ARQ) feature helps to avoid picture collapse by recovering and resending lost packets.

Built-In Microphone A leader in the audio conferencing market, Sony has transferred that expertise into the built-in microphone to provide superb sound quality making the videoconference audio sound natural, clear and crisp.

Feature Rich, Standards Based Incorporating the latest interlaced video technology (60 fps) and H.264 coding, the PCS-1 presents up to 2Mbps over IP or 768Kbps in ISDN while offering a 6-site H.320 & H.323 MCU, capable of cascading up to 10 locations. And now users can bridge videoconferences between ISDN and IP units. The PCS-1 also offers the protection of AES encryption.

Memory Stick Media Support Data sharing in a videoconference is easier than ever with optional Memory Stick media, allowing presentation documents and photos to be displayed in 4CIF format without connecting to a computer. The displayed graphics can even be transferred to remote sites.
