Get Started
This following sections introduce you to the Polycom CX5100 system: how it works, what it looks like, and
how to get started using it to participate in video conferences.
Introduce the Polycom CX5100 System
The Polycom CX5100 unified conference station lets you use the collaboration capabilities of Microsoft Lync
voice, video, and content while automatically tracking the flow of conversation to enable richer, more
interactive communication. The CX5100 system provides the camera and microphones. You place, answer,
and control Microsoft Lync calls using the computer connected to the system.
During a call, the integrated cameras capture the entire panoramic view of your conference room, and the
integrated microphones capture the voices coming from any location around the table. During calls, the
system automatically shows the person who is speaking, along with a 360-degree view of the other
participants in the room. The site with the active speaker sees the last speaker. See the figure below for an
example of how the CX5100 system works.
