Whats the ITS recommended configuration for a videoconference unit?
Polycom has several different models of videoconferencing units available for mainstream, small-meeting use. Models such as the Polycom VSX-6000 or VSX-7xxx series have the basic features you would need for videoconferencing. Your choice of unit will depend on the optional features you may want. It is also important to have a good network connection to the device, with a switched port to the datajack so as to have adequate bandwidth available for the best videoconferencing experience. Please consult with ITS if you are interested in purchasing your own device for your department. ITS does not recommend units for personal desktop use.
