The RMX Manager is the Windows version of the Collaboration Server Web Client. It can be used instead 
of the Collaboration Server Web Client for routine Collaboration Server management and for Collaboration 
Server management via a modem connection. For more information on using the RMX Manager via a 
modem connection, see 

Using the RMX Manager application, a single user can control a single or multiple MCU units as well as 
conferences from multiple MCUs. The RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 1500/1800/2000/4000 
system can be managed and controlled by the RMX Manager application.

The RMX Manager can list and monitor:

● Up to 20 Collaboration Server systems in the MCUs pane 
● Up to 800 conferences in the Conferences pane
● Up to 1600 participants in the Participants pane

The RMX Manager is faster than the RMX Web Client and can give added efficiency to Collaboration Server 
management tasks, especially when deployed on workstations affected by:

● Lack of performance due to bandwidth constraints within the LAN/WAN environment.
● Slow operation and disconnections that can be caused by the anti-phishing component of various 

antivirus applications.

The RMX Manager application can be installed in your local workstation or accessed directly on the 
RealPresence Collaboration Server system without installing it in your workstation.

For Maximum Security Environments, the RMX Manager is the recommended option for accessing the 
RMX's management console. The RMX Manager specific to the Maximum Security version being 
deployed can be downloaded from the Support section of the Polycom website.

Modem connection is not supported when the Collaboration Server is in Ultra Secure Mode. For more 
information see 

Users with Auditor authorization level cannot connect to the RealPresence Collaboration Server via 
the RMX Manager application and must use the RMX Web Client.
