Polycom Security and Remote Access
Security and Firewall Traversal
Polycom Video Border Proxy (VBP™) solutions allow video conferences to securely traverse firewalls, while retaining complete network security.
Users of standards-based high definition video endpoints such as the Polycom HDX series can now remotely and securely communicate over video on enterprise or service provider networks.
By performing video NAT at the IP address boundary, Polycom VBP solutions forward video traffic via the shortest path possible to minimize jitter, delay, and packet loss. Polycom VBP solutions fully protect H.323 gatekeepers, video endpoints, and multipoint conference platforms from attack, while safeguarding video quality.
Polycom VBP series also optimize video conference quality through traffic management features such as prioritization, traffic shaping, call admission control, and diffserv marking/policing. In addition, the Polycom VBP series enhances network security with an H.323-aware packet inspection firewall that opens and closes TCP and UDP ports as required.
Polycom Video Border Proxy (VBP) Solutions
Extend your visual communication ecosystem safely and securely
The Polycom Video Border Proxy™ (VBP™) NAT/Firewall traversal solutions remove communication barriers and allow teams to collaborate more effectively over video. Supplanting or integrating with existing firewalls to provide a trusted route for remote users into room and personal telepresence and traditional video conferences, the Polycom VBP Series also optimizes video quality by prioritizing video traffic over data traffic and providing both shortest-path routing and traffic shaping.
Polycom VBP 6400-ST dramatically improves visual communications to employees in remote locations. The VBP's access proxy feature will streamline deployment and authorize trusted users securely into the network at up to 200Mb with installed key. Learn More >
Polycom VBP 6400-E dramatically improves B2B communications allowing organizations to build long lasting relationships, foster growth, and gain a competitive edge over those not video-enabled. Audio and video traffic supports up to 200Mb with installed key. Learn More >
The Polycom VBP 4555 Series helps reduce costs by simplifying the deployment, management, and security of converged video, voice, and data networks. Learn More >
High-Quality, Highly Secure Video Conferencing
Polycom VBP secure H.323 proxies enable one public IP to serve all the video communications needs, and with availability for bandwidths from 1 Mbps to 85 Mbps, IT managers can configure the VBP series for centralized or decentralized dial plans.
Polycom VBP solutions support all standards-based video endpoints and multipoint conferencing units, such as the Polycom RMX 2000™ real-time media conferencing platform. Models with optional H.460 support for mobile users or remote locations without video-aware firewalls are also available.
