Polycom® SoundStation
VTX™ 1000

Analog Conference Phone

High performance voice conferencing for rooms that require exceptional
voice quality.

The Polycom SoundStation VTX 1000 is truly a leap forward in voice
conferencing technology. It’s the world’s first conference phone that
automatically adapts to each meeting environment, providing high fidelity
voice clarity for all participants. With the SoundStation VTX 1000, conference
call participants can speak at a normal, natural conversation level and be
heard clearly from up to 20-feet away from the microphone – even in large
conference rooms. And, when two SoundStation VTX 1000 conference
phones connect on opposite ends of a call, the phones automatically connect
in Polycom HD Voice, resulting in extraordinary fidelity. No wonder Polycom is
the #1 choice in conference phones, worldwide.

Polycom Acoustic Clarity™ technology delivers exceptional performance
and voice quality, making your conference calls clearer and more productive.
Industry-leading full duplex technology provides natural, simultaneous
two-way conversation without clipping or drop-outs that are common
in traditional speakerphones. Dynamic Noise Reduction (DNR) actively
removes background noise such as projectors and ventilation systems,
while 360-degree microphone coverage with intelligent mixing highlights
the person speaking, not the distracting ambient sounds, for crystal clear
conferencing. The SoundStation VTX 1000 features technology that resists
interference from mobile phones and other wireless devices, delivering clear
communications with no distractions.

The SoundStation VTX 1000 conference phone’s 20-foot microphone
pickup range makes it ideal for larger conference rooms, with even greater
pickup available through optional Expansion Microphones. Automatic Gain
Control technology adjusts the microphone levels based on the distance
the speaker is from the microphones, delivering clear conversations to the
other participants. It can also be connected to a set of external speakers
for additional volume in the conference room. Integration with Polycom
VSX video conferencing systems and SoundStructure and Vortex installed
audio solutions makes it versatile enough to be used in nearly any type of
conference or meeting room.
