Version 1.1

The Administrator’s Guide for Polycom CX7000 Systems is for administrators

who need to configure, customize, manage, and troubleshoot Polycom

CX7000 systems. Please read the Polycom CX7000 system documentation

before you install or operate the system. The following related documents for

Polycom CX7000 systems are available from

www.polycom.com/videodocumentation:

•Setting Up the Polycom CX7000 System, which describes how to set up the

hardware

•User’s Guide for Polycom CX7000 Systems, which describes how to perform

video conferencing tasks

•Release Notes for Polycom CX7000 Systems

For support or service, please contact your Polycom distributor or go to

Polycom Support at support.polycom.com.

Introducing the Polycom CX7000 System

The Polycom CX7000 series provides high-definition (HD) voice, video, and

content for small to medium conference rooms (4 - 8 participants). The

Polycom CX7000 systems can send and receive high-definition (720p) video

in point-to-point calls and VGA video in multipoint calls.

Polycom CX7000 is designed for use within a corporate environment running

Microsoft Exchange Server and Microsoft Lync Server. The Polycom CX7000

system is not supported for use over a VPN or a Remote Access Point.

Administrator’s Guide for Polycom CX7000 Systems

2Polycom, Inc.

Installing the Polycom CX7000 System

Preparing Your Network for Installation

1Ensure that your corporate network environment is running one of the

following:

—Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 or 2007 with the auto-discover service

enabled

—Microsoft Lync Server 2010 with the auto-discover service enabled

2Ensure that your network provides adequate bandwidth for video

conferencing. Video calls at 720p resolution require the following call

speeds:

—Minimum for 720p calls: 1.5 Mbps

—Recommended for 720p calls: 2 Mbps or greater

3If the CX7000 System will sign in to a domain account, do the following

for each system before you start the system and run the setup wizard.

—Ensure that the system’s account is placed into an appropriate

Organizational Unit (OU).

—Ensure that the system’s account has an appropriate policy applied

that ensures that no login scripts are run, no software is installed, and

the software whitelist is not modified.

—Disable the User must change password at next logon setting.

—Enable the Password never expires setting.

—Make a note of the domain, domain account name, and the password

for each system.

—Create an Exchange user or room mailbox for the domain account.

»If you create a room mailbox, right click the room account and

select Properties > Resource Information, and ensure that the

Delete Comments option is unchecked.

4Create a Lync account for each system.

For Office 365 accounts, the initial temporary password must be changed

before you can use the account with the CX7000 system.

Only single Active Directory forest topology is supported

Administrator’s Guide for Polycom CX7000 Systems

Preparing Your Meeting Room for the Polycom CX7000 System

•Ensure that the room has a wired ethernet connection. Wireless operation

is not supported.

•If the meeting room requires a key card for access, ensure that the users

who need to use the room have the appropriate access cards.

•Ensure that the room has good lighting. Diffused cool white fluorescent

lighting works best.

•If the room has windows, consider covering them with blinds. Place the

camera so that it points away from windows.

•Use light blue for wall colors. Avoid dark or vivid wall colors.

Positioning the Polycom CX7000 System

The Polycom CX7000 system can be set up in multiple ways. When used with

furniture such as a pedestal or wall mount, the system fits into a bracket on the

back of the display. The system can also be placed in a cart or on a table.

To position the system:

>> Position the system so that the camera does not face toward a window or

other source of bright light. Leave enough space to connect the cables

easily. Place the camera and display together so that people at your site

face the camera when they are looking at the display.

If you need to position the system horizontally, remove the stand and install

the self-adhesive feet.

Setting Up the Polycom CX7000 System Hardware

Set up the Polycom CX7000 system using the printed instructions provided in

the box with the system. You can also find an electronic version of the system

setup sheet at www.polycom.com/videodocumentation.

Note that HDMI input is not supported in this release.

Caution. Risk of Electric Shock. To reduce the risk of personal injury or damage to

the equipment, do not use screws longer than those supplied (M4x16, 8.00 mm

maximum head diameter) to reconnect the stand to the system.

Administrator’s Guide for Polycom CX7000 Systems

4Polycom, Inc.

Positioning Your Microphone

The Polycom CX7000 system uses a built-in echo canceller which

automatically adjusts the audio to prevent the sound of far-end voices from

being sent back to the far end. The system is designed to provide excellent

audio in small to medium conference rooms. A number of factors can affect

audio quality including the volume of the system, the sensitivity of the

microphone, the acoustic qualities of the room, and the acoustic qualities of

any audio devices that combine microphone and speakers.

For best audio results, follow these guidelines:

•Place the microphone and speakers as far apart as possible, especially if

you are using external speakers and the Polycom microphone array.

•For best microphone performance, place the microphone no more than 1

meter from the person who is speaking. Speaking too far from the

microphone can keep the far end from hearing you.

•For most effective echo cancellation, keep the volume on your system’s

speakers at a moderate level. Excessive volume can cause audio problems

such as clipping or echo.

•Place the microphone on the meeting table so that each meeting

participant is closer to the microphone than the loud speakers.

•To avoid undesirable sound transfer, avoid placing the microphone and

the loud speakers on the same table.

Powering the System On and Off

Connect power and power on the Polycom CX7000 system after you have

connected all of the equipment that you will use with it. Make sure that the

system is powered off before you connect devices to it.

To power on the Polycom CX7000 system:

>> Press the power button on the front of the system.

The Polycom splash screen is displayed within about 10 seconds.

To power off the Polycom CX7000 system:

>> Do one of the following:

—Press and hold the power switch on the front of the system for two

seconds.

—Click Options > Configuration > Advanced Settings >

Reset System, and then click Shut Down.

—From the Home screen, click Options > Shut Down.

Polycom, Inc. 5

Note that, to use this option, the Preferences > Hide Shut Down

Option from users setting must be disabled.

After turning the power off in this way, wait at least 15 seconds before you

unplug the system from its power source.

Configuring the Polycom CX7000 System Software
