The Polycom® V²IU 5300-E is also a VoIP and video-aware solution, with NAT(Network Address Translation) and Firewall traversal issues resolved by performing video and voice NAT at the public/private IP address boundary. This eliminates security risks posed by other traversal methods that 'tunnel' or obscure video and voice traffic at the existing perimeter.
The Polycom® V²IU 5300-E employs a stateful packet inspection firewall in combination with an application layer gateway, providing comprehensive application-aware security. This approach enables the Polycom® V²IU 5300-E to dynamically provision and close TCP and UDP ports as needed, by video and voice endpoints.
Optimizing the quality of your video and voice calls is easy, as the Polycom® V²IU 5300-E routes video and voice traffic via the shortest path possible, to minimize jitter, latency, and packet loss.
At the same time, bandwidth not in use by video or voice is made available so that data traffic can burst up to its full line rate, maximizing WAN bandwidth. This traffic management, combined with video and voice call admission control, allows the administrator to effectively manage video and voice to deliver a high-quality networking experience.
