Features
The PCS-XG100/XG77/XG100S/XG77S
HD Visual Communication System is a
communication system that provides face-
to-face communications with a remote party
by transmitting and receiving images and
sound via LAN (Local Area Network) or
ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network)
connections.
Supports ITU-T international
standard
The HD Visual Communication System
complies with ITU-T Recommendations
defined by WTSC for easy connection with
remote parties overseas.

Transmission and reception of
high-definition images enabled
The Communication System supports the
H.264 Baseline Profile and High Profile
video encoding format, enabling
transmission and reception of 1080p60 (Full
HD) progressive video signals with a high
resolution of 1920 × 1080 or 1280 × 720 by
a maximum of 60 frames per second.
The
PCS-XG77/XG77S
does not support
progressive video signals with a resolution of
1920 × 1080. However, installing the PCSA-
RXG77 HD Upgrade Software (not supplied)
allows transmission and reception of 1920 ×
1080 progressive video at a maximum of 60
frames per second.
Transmission and reception of wide
range of stereo sound capability
The audio compression format of the
Communication System supports MPEG4
AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) stereo
sound and 22 kHz monaural sound, allowing
high-quality audio transmission and
reception. The built-in echo canceller
supports up to 16 kHz.
Supports data communication
Image output from a computer can be
transmitted simultaneously with camera
images.
High transmission speeds and
high-quality picture capability
The Communication System accepts a LAN
communication bit rate of up to 16 Mbps (up
to 4 Mbps on the PCS-XG77/XG77S). It
also allows you to connect to as many as
three ISDN lines and use 6B channels with
the optional PCSA-B384S ISDN Unit, and
as many as six ISDN lines and use 12B
channels with the optional PCSA-B768S
ISDN Unit.
When the PCS-XG100/XG100S is connected
to other models (excluding the PCS-XG80/
XG80S/XA80), the maximum communication
bit rate is 4 Mbps.
Wide range of video/audio
compression format selectable
The Communication System supports the
H.264, H.263+, H.261 and MPEG4
*
video
compression formats. It also supports the
MPEG4 AAC
**
, G.722, G.728, and G.711
audio compression formats.
* Supports MPEG4 only for connection using
SIP.
** Supports MPEG4 AAC only for IP and
ISDN connection.
• “H.261” will be supported in version 2.0.
• “H.263” during ISDN connections will be
supported in a future version.
Annotation capability
The annotation function allows you to write
letters or graphics on the screen or point with
a pointer during communication using the
optional pen tablet.
