The Simple Guide to Video Conferencing Units
- Will you need to move the unit between rooms or plan to keep it in one location?
- How many, what type, and what size TVs you will require?
- What type of camera do you plan to mount?
- Will you require speakers?
- What is the size of your meeting space?
Fortunately, The Simple TV Stand Store offers many tube/CRT TV carts, LCD carts, plasma carts, and wall mounts to securely support your TV, camera, and other valuable video conferencing equipment. When you’re ready to find the perfect stand or mounting solution for your business, consider the following:
Portability
Do you want your video conferencing setup to be a permanent installation or a portable unit? While mid-size to larger companies may find it more effective to have one or more designated meeting spaces, each with wall-mounted TVs, smaller organizations may prefer the added versatility of a mobile Video conferencing unit such as a wheeled TV cart. While all of our wheeled TV carts can easily be moved, if you plan to change meeting locations frequently, consider the lightweight, tip-resistant rollabout carts such as the Avteq VMS-100S or Avteq VMS-100L. Likewise, the Avteq RPS-1000L combines easy maneuverability with the stability of a cart.
TV Style and Depth
Your TV will be the centerpiece of your video conferencing unit, so it’s important to choose a TV stand, TV cart, or wall mount ideally suited to the type of television that you plan to use. Will you have one TV or two? What type of TV is it: tube (a.k.a. CRT), LCD, or plasma? How large is the screen? How heavy is it? For tube TVs, you’ll need a cart large enough to accommodate its depth, such as the Avteq GM-300S. Because of their slimmer profile, LCD and plasma TVs can be mounted on thinner TV carts, or they may be wall-mounted using a system like the universal Avteq VMPU-100L.
Cameras
Cameras are an essential component of your video conferencing setup, as they allow meeting participants to see one another. Once you have settled on the right video conferencing camera system, such as Polycom, Aethra, or Sony, you've got to consider logistics. For example, if your conferences will be held in the same room every time, you have the option of using a wall mount for your camera and TV, such as the Avteq VMPU-7000S. If your video conferencing unit revolves around a rolling unit, you will be better off with a set-top camera mount such as the one included with the Avteq GMP-200M plasma or LCD TV cart.
Speakers
A high-quality audio setup brings your video conference to life. When selecting a TV stand or TV mount, consider how many speakers you wish to have and where you’d like to mount them. If you decide to wall-mount your TV and speakers, look for a universal wall mount like the Avteq VMPU-100L. If you prefer your speakers to be attached to a TV cart, look for accessories like the Avteq VM-AUD-100, which allows you to mount speakers below the TV screen. The Avteq GM-7000 panel will allow you to mount a subwoofer as well.
Accessories
Do you need extra shelving in your Avteq TV cart? If you’d like extra storage space for presentation materials, cables and more, consider adding extra shelves. Products like the Optima Series Extra Shelf are designed to be compatible with Avteq tube TV carts, Avteq LCD TV carts, and Avteq plasma TV carts.Ready to shop?
