Wow, I had no idea! I have looked at SIP-based PAs in the past, including this one, but this completely escaped my attention. I just browsed through the manual, and sure enough, this is an advertised feature. Kinda weird that you have to buy an all-in-one loudspeaker to acquire a device that can act as a SIP-to-Polycom-multicast bridge...it would be nice if they sold a cheaper version that omitted the speaker. (Or, even better yet, if Asterisk just supported this natively so that you didn't have to buy some hardware box.) But still, it's nice to know that this exists and is an option.
