About the SCOPIA XT1000 Series
The SCOPIA XT1000 Series incorporates the latest state-of-the-art video technology for room
conferencing, including support for dual stream 1080p video, high quality data sharing, high
quality full band audio and a high capacity embedded MCU.
Among its key features, SCOPIA XT1000 delivers support for two full High Definition (HD) 1080p
video streams as standard. It includes a PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) camera with 10x optical zoom for
viewing details, and wide-angle capability for capturing an entire group. The second video stream
can be used with an additional 1080p camera for visual coverage or with a PC for data sharing.
SCOPIA XT1000 supports high-resolution PC data sharing at 30fps, thus allowing presentations and
video clips to be shared with no quality loss.
The multipoint technology embedded in SCOPIA XT1000 provides the ability of hosting High
Definition (HD), Continuous Presence (CP) meetings with up to four or nine participants.
SCOPIA XT1000 provides full band audio encoding to ensure high-clarity audio transmission with
no loss of quality. Beam forming technology is used in the 3-way Microphone Pod to put the focus
on the speaker while isolating background noise. The ability to daisy-chain a second microphone
provides unparalleled large room coverage.
SCOPIA XT1000 Series as Endpoints
Figure 1-1
illustrates a topology in which the XT1000/XT1200 act as endpoints (or terminals):
•
The MCU (e.g. SCOPIA Elite MCU) performs media processing for all connected terminals
(XT1000/XT1200, compatible 3rd party, SCOPIA VC240) regardless of their location and can
handle multiple conferences simultaneously. SCOPIA Elite MCU incorporates multi-party
1080p, 720p and H.264 Scalable Video Coding (SVC).
•
SCOPIA VC240 integrates advanced video conferencing into a Samsung high resolution 24-inch
multimedia LCD monitor.
The XT1000 features the XT1000 Standard Camera. The XT1200 features a Sony Camera. Both
cameras are high end devices with state-of-the-art optics and full HD (1080p) support.
The Sony Camera provides better quality on average videocommunication condition and is
recommended when:
