Setting Up the Room for Polycom People On Content™
For the best results, follow these guidelines for setting up Polycom People On Content™:
● Use the Polycom EagleEye HD camera with Polycom HDX 9000 series and Polycom HDX 8000
series systems. Polycom recommends using a Polycom EagleEye II, Polycom EagleEye III, Polycom
EagleEye HD or Polycom EagleEye HD 1080 camera with People on Content. If you are using a
Polycom EagleEye 1080 or Polycom EagleEye View camera, activating People on Content
automatically reduces the resolution to 720p.
● Create a flat, consistent background color using a screen or matte-finish pain t in green or blue. Make
sure the background has no shadows or glare.
● Make sure that the background and the prese n te r ar e well lit. Fo r example, use a minimum of two
250 W halogen lights on the background and one on the presenter.
● Experiment with different room and lighting arrangements until the best results are achieved.

Points to Note:
•The microphone input of the Polycom HDX Series system can support one
connection to SoundStructure C-Series mixers. For more information about using
the SoundStructure C-Series mixer with a Polycom HDX system, refer to the
SoundStructure C-Series documentation on the Polycom web site.
You cannot connect both a SoundStructure C-Series mixer and a SoundStation
IP 7000 phone to the Polycom HDX 9000 Series system at the same time.
•If the EagleEye Director device is connected to a Polycom HDX system that is
connected to a SoundStructure C-Series mixer (or echo cancellers, sound
mixers, or other external devices) and the SoundStructure C-Series mixer is
connected to the room audio playback system, the EagleEye Director's audio
feedback cable (Polycom EagleEye Director Audio Feedback Phoenix to
Phoenix Cable) must connect to the balanced audio output connector of
SoundStructure. The room audio playback system must connect through the
EagleEye Director's audio feedback cable to the SoundStructure C-Series mixer.

When connecting two Polycom HDX microphone array host devices, a crossover
cable is required. To bui ld a custom crossover cable fo r this purpose, you should
use shielded CAT5 or better cable. Each end of the onle should have a shielded
RJ-45 plug connector that connects to a Polycom HDX microphone array host
device. The maximum supported cable length is 100 feet.
Due to differing use of the twisted pairs within the cable, the pinout for this custom
CAT5 crossover cable is not the same as the pinout that is used for standard
Ethernet cables. Do not use standard Ethernet cables. Instead, for best cable
performance, refer to the following pinout information to create this custom CAT5
crossover cable.
