TANDBERG Videoconferencing System
Camera
The built-in camera includes a high quality colour camera with a fast pan/tilt/zoom action. The camera is
controlled by the system’s infra-red remote control and operates pan/tilt and zoom.
Codec
The Codec is the heart of the system. The main task for the Codec is the compression of outgoing video, audio
and data, the transmission of this information to a remote site and the decompression of the incoming
information. Hence the name Codec. Intelligent Call Management (ICM) and the SoftMux are features built into the
Codec.
Remote control
The remote control is used to control all functions of the system. There is a separate remote control for operating
the monitor.
Table microphone
The high quality table microphone is specially designed to be used on a table during a video conference.
The ideal location for the microphone is on a flat surface at least 2m (6.5 ft) from the front of the system. The
microphone cable should always point towards the system.
The system will automatically equalize sound levels. Loud and soft voices are picked up and transmitted to the far
end at approximately the same level.
