HDX

The Polycom Instructor FS HDX combines the

power of a Polycom HDX 9002 video

conferencing system with the capabilities of a

SMART Board interactive whiteboard.

With a Polycom Instructor FS HDX, you can

make and receive video calls and share content

just like you would in a typical video conference.

But with the addition of the SMART Board

interactive whiteboard, you can annotate that

content, and you can touch the screen to make

selections from the HDX user interface. For

example, you can jot down notes on a slide

presentation that you’re sharing with the far site,

draw a pie chart on your Windows desktop, or

highlight changes on a file from your computer.

The SMART Board interactive whiteboard

connects to a 50-inch flat-panel display. Both of

these attach to the top of the Polycom Media

Center. The Media Center also houses the HDX

9002 system, it provides stereo speakers so you

can hear audio from your video conference with

added clarity, and it enables you to roll the

system from room to room. To use the Polycom

Instructor FS HDX, you must provide your own

PC.
