Poly Collaboration and Video Conferencing

HP Poly Conferencing Solutions

Professional Video & Audio for Modern Meeting Spaces

HP Poly conferencing systems are designed for clear, dependable communication in today’s hybrid work environments. Built on the combined legacy of Polycom (video) and Plantronics (audio), Poly solutions are widely used in conference rooms, huddle spaces, and executive meeting areas where reliability and ease of use matter.

Poly systems integrate seamlessly with leading platforms including Microsoft Teams Rooms, Zoom Rooms, and Google Meet, while maintaining a consistent, polished experience for both users and IT teams.

Designed for Simplicity and Consistency

Poly’s approach centers on straightforward operation and predictable performance. Systems are designed to be easy to use in-room, simple to manage remotely, and resilient in day-to-day business use.

Core principles include:

• Clear, intelligible audio even in challenging environments

• Intelligent video that reduces distractions

• Minimal in-room complexity

• Enterprise-grade security and centralized management

Scalable Solutions by Room Type

All-in-One Video Bars
Poly’s all-in-one video bars combine camera, microphones, speakers, and conferencing software into a single device. These are well suited for huddle rooms through larger conference spaces where fast deployment and a clean aesthetic are priorities.

They offer wide-angle video, automatic speaker framing, and native support for major conferencing platforms—often without the need for a separate in-room PC.

Modular Conferencing Systems
For larger or more complex rooms, Poly’s modular systems separate the core processing from cameras, microphones, and speakers. This allows greater flexibility for boardrooms, divisible spaces, and architecturally unique environments.

Modular designs support multiple cameras and microphones, making them appropriate for rooms where coverage, sightlines, and acoustics require careful planning.

USB / BYOD Options
Poly also offers USB-based solutions for bring-your-own-device environments. These systems allow users to connect a laptop and instantly access professional-grade audio and video, making them a practical option for smaller rooms or flexible workspaces.

Intelligent Audio and Video Performance

Poly systems are known for strong audio clarity, supported by beamforming microphones and background noise suppression. Video features automatically frame participants and adjust focus based on who is speaking, helping meetings feel more natural without requiring manual control.

These features work quietly in the background, improving meeting quality without adding complexity for users.

Centralized Management and Security

Poly devices can be monitored and managed through a cloud-based dashboard, allowing IT teams to handle updates, diagnostics, and system health across multiple rooms. Security features include encrypted communications and controlled firmware updates, supporting enterprise requirements.

Where Poly Fits Best

Well suited for:

• Conference rooms and huddle spaces

• Hybrid and video-first organizations

• Clients who value consistency and reliability over customization

Important considerations:

• Poly is a premium, professional-grade platform

• Larger or modular rooms benefit from professional design and installation

• Higher-end models deliver the most advanced AI features
