Shure, a leading manufacturer of microphones and audio electronics, has
demonstrated its interoperability with products from Polycom, Inc., the global
leader in open standards-based unified communications and collaboration (UC&C).

As part of Shure’s strategic focus on providing innovative solutions in the A/V
Conferencing and Integration market, the Company is excited to partner with
Polycom, a leader in the UC&C space. Shure is working with Polycom
SoundStructure, HDX, Group Series, and Vortex Solutions to connect wireless
microphones to Polycom audio and video conferencing equipment.

Because Shure has satisfied Polycom’s extensive interoperability requirements, it
can brand Microflex Wireless as Polycom Ready. Polycom Ready solutions, including
end-user devices, network devices, and software applications, are tested for
interoperability with Polycom products and applications. When customers see
solutions bearing the Polycom Ready badge, they know they’ve been proven to work
with the world’s leading open standards-based UC&C platform.

“We are very proud that the Microflex Wireless System has earned the Polycom
Ready designation,’ said Chad Wiggins, Category Director. “It instills in our
customers the confidence that they can easily deploy our wireless solutions within
their Polycom UC&C infrastructure.’

“Our customers sometimes need to add wireless microphones to their Polycom
audio or video conference room and training room configurations. Innovators like
Shure help extend and enhance Polycom’s UC&C solutions by delivering real value
and reliable interoperability – and because of that, Shure has earned the Polycom
Ready badge,’ said Ted Colton, Polycom Group Vice President, Technology Partners
& Alliances at Polycom. “Together, we’re delivering UC&C solutions that power
richer conversations and higher productivity, transforming lives and businesses in
the process.’
