How to choose conferencing equipment

Decide on audio or video

If your meetings are mostly phone calls, a conference phone on the table is enough. If remote colleagues need to see the room, you also need a camera, a display and a video system or meeting-room computer.

Match the unit to the room

Microphone pickup decides how far from the unit people can sit and still be heard. A USB speakerphone suits one person or a small huddle. A conference phone covers a meeting table, and some models accept expansion microphones for longer tables.

Check how it connects

Conference phones use an analogue line, an open SIP service or one maker's own IP phone system, and wireless models link to a DECT base. USB speakerphones plug into a computer. If you are unsure what your system accepts, ask through our quote request page.

Check the platform version

Some speakerphones, cameras and room kits come in a version certified for Microsoft Teams and a version for other platforms such as Zoom. The product title usually shows which, for example MS or UC on Jabra speakerphones.

Which do I need: a conference phone, a USB speakerphone or a video system?
