Polycom Distributed Media Application
• DMA is an optional component but is essential if 
Content sharing is to be enabled. 
• All SIP endpoints register to DMA as a SIP Proxy.
• DMA should be configured to route SIP calls (with 
CTS destination) to CUCM. 
• DMA can be configured with a VMR (Virtual Meeting 
Room). Incoming calls are then routed to the 
Collaboration Server.
Collaboration 
Server
8.1.1 MCU:
• Functions as the network bridge for multipoint calls 
between H.323, SIP and TIP endpoints.
• The Collaboration Server can be interfaced to CUCM 
using a SIP trunk, enabling CTS to join multipoint 
calls on Collaboration Server. Signaling goes through 
the CUCM while the media in TIP format goes 
directly between the CTS and Collaboration Server.
• The Collaboration Server must be configured to route 
outbound SIP calls to DMA.
• Collaboration Server must be configured to send and 
receive RTP streams to and from the Service 
Provider's SBC.
