Video switching 
(VSW)
In Video Switching mode, all participants see the same 
video picture (full screen). The current speaker is displayed 
in full screen on all the participants’ endpoints, while the 
speaker sees the previous speaker. Switching between 
participants is voice-activated; whenever a participant starts 
to speak, he or she becomes the conference speaker and is 
viewed on all screens.
When selected, the conference is of ultra-high quality video 
resolution, in a special conferencing mode which implies 
that all participants must connect at the same line rate and 
use HD video.
This feature utilizes the resources more wisely and 
efficiently by:
• Saving utilization of video ports (1 port per participant as 
opposed to 4 ports in CP mode).
• Video display is in full screen mode only.
Drawbacks of this feature are that all participants must 
connect at the same line rate, (for example, HD), and all 
participants with endpoints not supporting HD will connect 
as secondary (audio only).
Video layout changes are not enabled during a conference.
If HD 1080p is selected, endpoints that do not support HD 
1080p resolution are connected as secondary (audio only) 
participants.
Note: 
• This option is not available if MGC is selected as a 
Supported MCU (General Settings).
• Video Switching conferencing mode is unavailable to 
ISDN participants.
Resolution Possible values include:
• H.264 SD 30(v7 with MPM+ or MPMx)
• H.264 720p60(v7 with MPM+ or MPMx)
• H.264 720p30
• H.264 1080p30(MPM+ or MPMx)
RMX General Settings > Advanced Settings
Auto redialing Instructs the Polycom RMX to automatically redial IP and 
SIP participants that have been abnormally disconnected 
from the conference.
• The RMX will not redial an endpoint that has been 
disconnected from the conference by the participant.
• The RMX will not redial an endpoint that has been 
disconnected or deleted from the conference by an 
operator or administrator.
