Chapter 7:
Encrypted
Videoconference
When a strictly confidential videoconference is required or a videoconference
is held via the internet, the Video Communication System enables a
videoconference with encrypted video, audio, and data output from the PCSA-
DSB1S Data Solution Box. Conducting a videoconference using this feature is
known as an encrypted videoconference.
This chapter describes how to conduct an encrypted videoconference.
The Video Communication System is equipped with standard encryption,
which complies with the ITU-T recommendation H.233, H.234, and H.235,
and SONY encryption, Sony's original encryption method.
The SONY encryption method is available only between PCS-G70/G70P
Video Communication Systems or between the PCS-G70/G70P and remote
parties (receivers) using the PCS-G50/G50P, PCS-11/11P, PCS-1/1P, or PCS-
TL50/TL50P Video Communication Systems. You cannot conduct a SONY
encryption videoconference with Sony communication systems other than the
ones listed, or with videoconferencing systems from other manufacturers.
An encrypted videoconference can be conducted using a LAN or ISDN
connection with the standard encryption method but only using a LAN
connection with the SONY method. The encryption feature can also be used in
a multipoint conference using a LAN connection (including the cascade
connection).
You cannot conduct an encrypted videoconference with the SONY method via
a mixed LAN and ISDN connection.
Notes
• Streaming and recording are not available during encrypted videoconferences,
whether you are using standard encryption or SONY encryption.
• During an encrypted videoconference using SONY encryption, camera control
signals (for controlling the other party's camera) and whiteboard pictures are not
encrypted.
• The PCS-G70/G70P, PCS-G50/G50P, PCS-1/1P, PCS-11/11P, and the PCS-TL50/
TL50P are equipped to handle SONY encryption.
