• Provision Polycom rooms for starting and joining Zoom meetings
  If you have an existing Polycom RealPresence (either Group Series or Debut) room system in place, you can integrate its calendaring system with Zoom. This lets you start a scheduled Zoom meeting directly from your existing hardware. You can also start an instant meeting if the room is configured with a Personal Meeting ID, or use the room to join Zoom meetings that are not on the calendar. See Polycom Interoperability with Zoom Solution Guide and Zoom Connector for Polycom for details.
