The PCS-G50 boasts a maximum video transfer rate of 4 Mb/s over an IP network, and it
provides extremely high resolution video. By adopting the H.263 video codec/4CIF format,
the PCS-G50 produces image resolution comparable to that of standard TV broadcasts. It can
also switch to the H.264 video codec for higher throughput or revert to previous versions of
the ITU-T videoconferencing codecs to maintain compatibility with legacy systems.

As with other PCS Series models, the PCS-G50, with its internal MCU (Multi-Control Unit)
capability, supports simultaneous multi-point videoconferences with six (6) endpoints, and a
maximum of 10 endpoints when two PCS-G50 units are cascaded. The PCS-G50 bridges
mixed calls between an ISDN network and an IP network, and speed matches (by connecting
at the endpoint respective speeds) without lowering the performance of the entire system.
