Because different types of video conferencing systems use different aspect
ratios for their video images, the OTX automatically adjusts the video for your
displays. Most systems use either 4:3 aspect ratio (such as the RPX HD
solutions) or 16:9 aspect ratio (such as the OTX and TPX solutions).
For example, if you call a Polycom OTX room from an RPX HD 200 Series
suite, the image on the displays in the RPX suite adjusts for the 16:9 OTX room.
Therefore, this is what you can expect to see on the displays in the RPX suite:

In multipoint calls, what you see and what the far site sees depends on a variety of
factors including the number of sites in the call, the types of systems in the call, the
cameras being used, and so forth. If a site is using the VNOC, the VNOC operator
usually configures the layout so that every site sees all the other sites in the call.
The following illustration shows what you would see in an OTX 300 room when in a
multipoint call with two TPX HD 306M sites and one RPX HD 200 Series site. The left
and center displays show the TPX HD 306M sites; the right display shows the RPX
HD 200 site.
