Polycom Inc. continues to push the H.246 High Profile compression protocol capabilities through its video conference systems.

The company said Wednesday that its latest conference bridge, the mid-range RMX 1500, support the standard thanks to a new MPMx media processing module. The fourth model to the RMX line-up, the 1500 is aimed at branch offices.

By using the protocol on High Definition video calls, bandwidth consumption can be cut up to 50 per cent of that used by standard H.264, Polycom says.
