The PCS-1/1P Video Communication
System is a videoconferencing system that
provides natural, face-to-face
communications with a remote party by
transmitting and receiving images and sound
via LAN (Local Area Network) or ISDN
(Integrated Services Digital Network)
connections.
Supports ITU-T international
videoconferencing standard
The Video Communication System
complies with ITU-T Recommendations
defined by WTSC for easy connection with
remote parties overseas.

Supports data conferences
Use of the optional PCSA-DSB1S Data
Solution Box allows the data from a personal
computer to be incorporated in the
presentation or to be shown on the projector.
Versatile use with a variety of
display units
The Video Communication System is
compact size, allowing easy installation on a
TV. The camera and the Communication
Terminal can be separately installed,
allowing for greater flexibility when using a
large-size plasma display, projector screen,
etc.
High transmission speeds and
high-quality picture capability
The Video Communication System accepts
a LAN bandwidth of up to 1920 Kbps. It also
allows connection to as many as three ISDN
lines; 6B channels usable by using the
optional PCSA-B384S ISDN Unit and as
many as six ISDN lines; 12B channels
usable by using the optional PCSA-B768S
ISDN Unit.
Wide range of video/audio
compression formats selectable
The Video Communication System supports
Interlaced SIF, H.264, MPEG4, H.263+,
H.263 and H.261 for video compression
format, and MPEG4 Audio, G.722.1,
G.722, G.729, G.728, G.723.1, G.711 for
audio compression format. You can choose
whether priority is given to video or audio
depending on the type of conference or
video/audio equipment used by a remote
party.
QoS (Quality of Service) function
for optimization of bandwidth and
traffic packet through network
“Packet Resend Request” and “Adaptive
Rate Control” functions incorporated,
allowing solution for busy network traffic or
packet loss, which provides consistent high-
quality communication.
Easy setup and operation
The Help menu appears on the monitor
screen for guidance of operation. The menus
used for the system administrator or those
for conference participants are separately
displayed.
The Video Communication System supports
UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) to allow
automatic NAT configuration.
Supports multipoint conference
Installing the optional PCS-323M1 H.323
MCU software (for LAN) or the PCS-
320M1 H.320 MCU software (for ISDN)
allows conduct of a multipoint conference.
The multipoint conference via LAN and
ISDN connections mixed is also available if
both the PCS-323M1 H.323 and PCS-
320M1 H.320 MCU software are installed in
a main Terminal.
Memory Stick slot equipped
The Communication Terminal is equipped
with a Memory Stick slot, allowing the use
of still images recorded with a digital still
camera and stored in the “Memory Stick”.
