USB Device Mode : Web conferences become comfortable with the peripherals of HDVC unit
The HDVC System can be used as the camera/microphone USB device*1 connected to the web conference PC to enable high-definition web conferences.*2 Because the HDVC speaker and display can also be used, the system is ideal for web conferences with a number of participants.
Select a video conference or web conference depending on the parties being connected, the number of connection points, and the locations. Since it is not only a specified web conference, the range is not limited.

*4 Usable by simply connecting a USB cable to the PC, without having to install a driver.
Addition of PwithP and Side By Side Display Layout Patterns (KX-VC1600/KX-VC1300/KX-VC1000)
When sharing content between 2-site single monitors (dual-stream transmission/reception), the operation of a different than usual PwithP and Side By Side display layout is available.
* This function is effective only with the KX-VC1600/KX-VC1300/KX-VC1000. It will not operate with multi-site connection of 3 sites or more.
* The video transmission frame rate is a maximum of 30 fps even with 1:1 correspondence.
* This function requires a separate CLI setting that supports USB recording of the display layout image.
Camera Control : Intuitive operation
The remote controller of the HDVC System lets you control the pan, tilt, zoom operations and camera settings* of dedicated cameras mounted at your office and a distant site. A PC and sub camera can be easily switched with a single press of the button. The remote controller features a user-friendly button layout just like that on a TV remote controller, thus allowing intuitive operation.
Automatically control the power supply
In addition to operating the power button of the main unit and remote controller operation, the HDVC System power can be automatically turned ON or OFF with the settings of the HDVC System. Automatic operation makes possible by turning the power OFF during the night or turning the power ON during weekdays. It is also possible to externally control the unit through the serial interface (RS-232C terminal).
USB Recording : Simply recording videoconferences
Videoconferences can be recorded onto a USB memory stick connected to the HDVC System. In addition to recording a remote site, you can record*1 images and sounds from your own site and easily start recording using the remote controller. The recorded data can be played back*2 on a personal computer, and can be easily shared among multiple sites via the HDVC System. Recording is also possible without holding a videoconference with a remote site. It can be used as visual minutes of meeting.

Triple Monitor Capability : Accurate communication of information
The HDVC System supports H.239/BFCP dual streaming to simultaneously transmit the home location image and a PC document image and to simultaneously receive the image of a distant site and a PC document image. The KX-VC2000/KX-VC1600 features a Triple Monitor function*, which can display a PC document, the image of a distant site and the image of the home location separately on three monitors. Display of a PC document on a large screen facilitates understanding and provides effective visual communication.
Supported by the KX-VC2000/KX-VC1600.
The KX-VC1300 / KX-VC1000 supports Dual Monitor. For KX-VC1000, an Activation Key (KX-VCS402) is necessary to use 2 monitors
Detailed inspection of product or parts
The image of a product sample or parts captured with a Sub Camera can be shown to other parties during a videoconference. The clear, high-resolution images displayed by the HDVC System allow close examination of material textures and small details that are difficult to see with the bare eyes.
Sharing of PC documents through high-resolution images
Videoconferences can be recorded onto a USB memory stick connected to the HDVC System. In addition to recording a remote site, you can record*1 images and sounds from your own site and easily start recording using the remote controller. The recorded data can be played back*2 on a personal computer, and can be easily shared among multiple sites via the HDVC System. Recording is also possible without holding a videoconference with a remote site. It can be used as visual minutes of meeting.
Easy-to-understand remote lectures and seminars are conducted at multiple sites
The lecturer can proceed with the lecture while watching the conditions of the people attending at multiple sites, and the attendants can display reference materials and the image of the lecturer on separate screens. The easy-to-see screens make it easier to understand the content of the lecture.
Presentation Mode
This mode is suited to lectures where the main site displays composite images of the sub-sites, and the sub-sites display only the main site image.
Contact List Transfer : Centrally manage the contact list
The HDVC System contact list of a specific site can be transferred to the HDVC System of another site through the network. This makes it possible to centrally manage the contact list of the HDVC System and improves the efficiency of operational management.
* This function is available when using an Intranet/VPN. The updating of the contact list is not an incremental update, and consists of overwriting all contacts.
Whitelist : Whitelist for rejecting unexpected malicious calls
(Compatible modes: IP mode (SIP, H.323), NAT Traversal mode.)
For information security purposes, in addition to encryption during videoconference calls, HDVC can protect against unexpected incoming access, such as wrong number calls or especially malicious calls. By utilizing a contact list and HDVC identification as a whitelist, HDVC can be set to accept calls only from those listed in its contact list or from Panasonic videoconference units with HDVC identification.* In other words, any access from people who are not registered on the contact list or who are calling from non-HDVC units will be blocked.
* The call permission function is not available for HDVC Mobile, since the HDVC Mobile does not support outgoing calls with an authentication number in global IP format.
Web Console : Control and operation of the HDVC System from a remote location
Operations manager can control and operate the HDVC System via the Web Console without remote controller.
* The Web Console is a function intended for installers and operations managers.
* Examples of menu: System information display, Virtual remote controller, Edit contact list, Outgoing call and End call
External Control Interface
A disclosed external device interface allows control over the network from an external device other than the remote. Due to CGI use, applications can be developed on Windows®, Linux®, iOS (iPad/iPhone), Android™ and other platforms regardless of the type of OS.
