6 Polycom OneDial TM Feature Works Like a Phone Works Like a Phone 4-Digit Internal Dialing 4-Digit Internal Dialing 9 Dialing for External Gateway Calls 9 Dialing for External Gateway Calls Conference On-Demand Conference On-Demand Multipoint Calls Initiated by the User Without the Need for a Conference Administrator Multipoint Calls Initiated by the User Without the Need for a Conference Administrator Transparent Complex Call Routing Transparent Complex Call Routing

7 Polycom OneDial TM – How it Works Option 1: Choose a Name from the Global Directory Option 1: Choose a Name from the Global Directory PathNavigator Automatically Routes Calls Over IP, ISDN, through Gateways, or Whatever is Required PathNavigator Automatically Routes Calls Over IP, ISDN, through Gateways, or Whatever is Required PathNavigator Automatically Adds or Removes Area Codes, International Dialing Prefixes and Country Codes PathNavigator Automatically Adds or Removes Area Codes, International Dialing Prefixes and Country Codes Option 2: Dial A Number Like a Phone Option 2: Dial A Number Like a Phone 4-Digit Extension for Internal Calls, or Dial 9 for Outside (Gateway) Calls 4-Digit Extension for Internal Calls, or Dial 9 for Outside (Gateway) Calls No Gateway Call Prefixes Required Regardless of the Speed of the Call Dialed No Gateway Call Prefixes Required Regardless of the Speed of the Call Dialed

8 The Power of The Intelligent Network Routing Engine Least-Cost Routing Least-Cost Routing Finds and Selects Lowest Cost Resources Automatically – Networks and Gateways Finds and Selects Lowest Cost Resources Automatically – Networks and Gateways Alternate Routing Alternate Routing Alternate Routing Auto-Selects ISDN Routing Where IP Bandwidth is Not Available Alternate Routing Auto-Selects ISDN Routing Where IP Bandwidth is Not Available Automatically routes calls to best resources Automatically routes calls to best resources Finds Users Regardless of Location Finds Users Regardless of Location Resources Utilized According to Bandwidth Availability, Policy and RAI/RAC Resources Utilized According to Bandwidth Availability, Policy and RAI/RAC Routes Within as Well as Outside the Enterprise Routes Within as Well as Outside the Enterprise Support for Remote Users on the VPN Support for Remote Users on the VPN PathNavigator

9 Originator Conference On-Demand ViaVideo, single-point ViewStations, and iPower systems will be able to dial multiple endpoints ViaVideo, single-point ViewStations, and iPower systems will be able to dial multiple endpoints Turns every endpoint into a multipoint system Turns every endpoint into a multipoint system End user selects names from the directory or enters numbers/names manually End user selects names from the directory or enters numbers/names manually PathNavigator communicates directly with Polycom MGC (MCU) resources in the enterprise PathNavigator communicates directly with Polycom MGC (MCU) resources in the enterprise GW* MCU * The GW is built-in with the MGC

10 IP Bandwidth not available Alternate Routing SF NY If the IP connection is not available, an alternate route can be automatically utilized Alternat e ISDN Path GW

11 NY Least Cost Routing Cross Country ISDN Call (expensive) Local ISDN Call (cost- effective) Route Long Distance Over the Enterprise WAN to Save Money SF/NY WAN NY GW SF

12 MGC Audio GW called Cell Cell Phone Regular ISDN Call to You GW MGC PathNavigator You Call Forwarding Caller Forward endpoint to any audio/video # When forwarded, PathNavigator automatically redirects
