RealPresence Distributed Media Application (DMA) Intelligent call control engine managing video across the distributed workforce
- Scalability architected to meet enterprise needs
- Reliability and redundant systems you can count on
- Interoperability across devices and protocols maximizing your investment
- Firewall traversal ensuring no one is left out of the conversation
DMA
Overview
Demanding environment? Challenge met.
Distributed Media Application (DMA) is a network-based software application that manages and distributes calls across collaboration networks. Utilizing intelligent algorithms, DMA dynamically routes calls throughout the secured network based on priority, class of service, resource availability and network outage with highly efficient load balancing and virtualization of bridging resources.

Benefits
- Scalability architected to meet enterprise needs
- Reliability you can count on
- Interoperability across devices and protocols
- Firewall traversal ensuring no one is left out of the conversation
Supporting up 75,000 device registrations and 25,000 concurrent calls with added MCU load balancing means you never get denial of service.
Eliminating single points of failure with redundant applications, databases, and geographically distributed super clusters ensures 100% up time
Supporting industry standards, Skype for Business and Teams interoperability for maximum return on investment
Extend calls through and beyond firewalls while maintaining critical security protocols.
We work everywhere that you do
Poly video solutions make meetings a breeze. Use cloud video apps for a full experience with all the features you know and love. Or use standards-based SIP and H.323 compatibility to connect to different cloud video services throughout your day.
Poly works seamlessly with whichever cloud video service you choose
Having the opportunity to remove the impediment that distance represents, and bringing people together so they can resolve issues and begin to work collaboratively, is really important.
