LCD video unit placement
The placement of the video system in a room will influence the
overall conferencing experience both at the local and remote
sites.
You should aim for:
• Good illumination of a person’s face to avoid annoying
shadows.
• No direct light on the LCD video display to avoid reflections.
The illustrations to the right show in general where to place your
MX300 system depending on the window positions in the room.
For each room layout the MX300 position(s) marked with A are
preferred, then B and finally C. You should avoid any position
not shown in the illustrations.
Microphone placement
Correctly placed microphones are very important to obtain a
good conferencing experience.
We recommend that you place the microphone(s) as close to
all users as possible, and that you avoid putting equipment
with noisy fans, such as computers and projectors, close to a
microphone.
If you are using more than one microphone, place them far
apart to minimize the interference. The required distance
between the microphones depends on the acoustics of your
room; normally 2 m (6.5 ft) will suffice.
The MX300 internal microphone may suffice in a small office
or meeting room when all participants are closer to the display
than 2.5 m (8 ft). Still a correctly placed external microphone
often performs better. The internal microphone is automatically
disabled when connecting an external microphone.
