A successful video conference provides a
face-to-face meeting, even if the partici-
pants are miles or continents apart. Keep
in mind that it still is a meeting—normal eti-
quette and dress code apply even here.

Make sure the microphone is placed at
the front of the table to ensure that all
speech will be detected. The best position
is at least 2 m (6.5’) in front of the system,
on a flat surface with at least 0.3 m (1’) of

Microphones should always be placed
away from noise sources like computer
and projector fans placed on the table.
The noise from such sources is often
perceived as surprisingly loud by the
remote participants.

When a whiteboard is used, the meeting
will be perceived as better to the remote
participants if the whiteboard is visible
through the main camera, as well as
through a dedicated whiteboard camera.
Broadcasting companies normally do
this to let viewers see that the presenter
actually is in the same room.

Remember to arrange all the peripherals
so that one participant can reach each
of them to point, change the display,
record or perform other functions during
the conference.

To help ensure the most natural meeting
environment, position the camera on
the top center of the receiving monitor,
if possible. The camera should point
directly at the meeting participants to
guarantee eye contact with those at the
far end. Check this out by means of the
Selfview feature of your video system.
The Selfview shows what the remote
party can see from your system (the
outgoing video).

For duo video some attention is needed.
Duo video is sometimes shown side–by–
side with half the screen showing the
presentation and the other half showing
the presenter. Provide the impression
that you seem to look towards the pre-
sentation instead of the impression that
you sit with your back towards it, when
all is viewed on the remote monitor. If in
doubt, look straight into the camera to
avoid this situation.

Other Tips
Use Camera Presets
Cisco TelePresence systems let you
create predefined zoom and camera
pointing directions (pan and tilt).
Use these to zoom into the person
speaking, if appropriate. Do not for-
get to zoom out again afterwards.

Loudspeaker Volume

speakers built into the monitor or the
Cisco Digital Natural Audio Module.

For some systems you can set the
default volume level by adjusting

Brightness Control
To adjust brightness, colors or other
settings of the monitor, use the
monitor’s own remote control. Adjust
the monitor to suit the conditions of
the conference room. The monitors
supplied by Cisco have on-screen
menus that are very easy to use. For
more information on configuring the
monitor as such, see the corre-
sponding user guides and adminis-
tration manuals.
