The High-End Sony PCS-G70S – Quality Visual
Communications System with the Utmost in Flexibility
Videoconferencing systems continue to evolve as we enter a new era of visual
communication. Sony is leading this evolution by staying ahead of the latest technological
trends in videoconferencing and developing systems that meet our customers' demands.
The high-end PCS-G70S visual communications system is our latest solution to meet the needs
of our power users.
The PCS-G70S boasts a maximum video transfer rate of 4 Mb/s over an IP network, and it
provides the highest resolution video of all models in the PCS Series. By adopting the H.263
video codec/4CIF format, the PCS-G70S produces image resolution comparable to that of
standard TV broadcasts. It can also switch to the H.264 video codec for higher throughput
and revert to previous versions of the ITU-T videoconferencing codecs to maintain
compatibility with legacy systems.
As with other PCS Series models, the PCS-G70S, with its internal MCU (Multi-Control Unit)
capability, supports simultaneous multi-point videoconferences with six (6) endpoints, and a
maximum of 10 endpoints when two PCS-G70S units are cascaded. The PCS-G70S bridges
mixed calls between an ISDN network and an IP network, and speed matches (by connecting
at the endpoint respective speeds) without lowering the performance of the entire system.
Other key features of the PCS-G70S include a site-name display function, support for up to
five monitors that display far-end sites in addition to the main monitor, and a dual-camera
input with dual-stream support, which can be used to provide more video coverage.
A unique feature that records audio and video to Memory Stick
®
media allows you to
store accurate records of your videoconference. Still more useful tools include an optional
tracking camera and a streaming capability.
The PCS-G70S also incorporates features such as data sharing, QoS support functions, an encryption
function, and digital whiteboard support, which are all useful features for quality of videoconferencing.
As we enter a new era of visual communication, the feature-rich PCS-G70S will meet user
needs for high-end and large-venue videoconferencing applications.
