Administrator’s Guide for the Polycom RealPresence Group Series Placing and Answering Calls
Polycom, Inc. 92
The RealPresence Group systems support several multipoint layouts, as well as dual-monitor compositing.
When you use two monitors of equal size, you have the capability of up to eight-way multipoint calling,
depending on your system configuration. When sharing content, one monitor will always be used for content
and one for people, but the configuration varies, depending on whether you have enabled Self View and
how many people are participating. When you do not share content, the configuration for both monitors is
spread over both monitors, again depending on whether Self View is enabled and how many participants
are in the call.
Including Multiple Sites in a Cascaded Call
You can include multiple sites in a cascaded call if the sites you call have internal multipoint capability. The
following diagram shows how to do this.

image is highlighted.
Presentation The speaker sees continuous presence while the other sites see the
speaker in full screen on the monitor.
Full Screen The site that is speaking is shown in full screen to all other sites. The current
speaker sees the previous speaker.
