Where can I get best video conferencing equipments and what are the prerequisites for it.?
I need branded equipments with good back up service.
admin answers:
You willl need hardware, software, and an internet connection.
You wont get “backup” on purchased equipment. You can get great equipment, but if the bandwidth doesn’t support the signal quality, it really doesn’t matter. It all hinges on the ISP and the bandwidth.

wht is the Sony Equipment for Video Conferencing?
admin answers:
Video conferencing components are pieces of video conferencing equipment needed to be able to establish a link between different users who have logged in to the same video conference. An example of a video conferencing component is a digital video display, used to receive images from other people taking part in a video conference.
Sony video conferencing systems are known for their high quality video images. In addition, Sony has built its reputation on high quality electronic equipment. Sony has further enhanced that reputation with its entrance into the video conferencing market. Their products include the following:
PCS-1 : Providing the latest video conferencing technology, the PCS-1′s easy-to-use features conform to industry standards. The PCS-1 includes a codec, microphone and camera in a small set top form factor.
The PCS-1 offers an optional high performance internal MCU for connecting up to six sites into one video conference. Advantages of the PCS-1 include presentation of high quality images from a PC or Memory Sticks (without the need for an associated PC). These images can be sent in a separate path from the primary video path (similar to Duo Video on Tandberg and People+Content on Polycom systems) using the H.239 standard. Additionally, the PCS-1 provides network bandwidth capability at up to 2Mbps IP or 768Kbps on ISDN.
PCS-11 : The Sony PCS-11 is based on the same quality audio and video conferencing capabilities as the PCS-1 system at a lower price. Perfect as an entry level system for new video conferencing users or for branch offices, the Sony PCS-11 has been designed for the small-to-medium business needs.

Lizzie asks…
Who can offer some advice for setting up some video conferencing?
If you are going to tackle this, I am afraid I have to give some details about the challenge we are facing.
We are setting up a small conference room with a computer dedicated to drive some video and conferencing equipment. We have everything in place and running at 100% with the exception of the actual video conferencing camera. We thought just a decent web-cam would work but the problem we are having is the computer and all of its associated connections are in the corner of this room and the web cams in the local store all seem to be USB based. When we attempt to run the USB cable of any appreciable length to get the camera where it would need to be it doesn’t work. (About 30′ from the computer). We ahve even tried powered USB hubs and active extension cables, no luck. So we are really starting to think that a USB camera is not the best option.
So now that you understand the challenge, what CAN we use as a camera that would be recognized as a “web cam” so programs like Skype would see the video signal and allow us to do video chats? Would a standard video camera work? How about a security camera? The only problem is most of these are going to give us RCA jacks, BNC connections, or S-Video. If we bought a card for the computer that would accept Coax or RCA video in, would Skype even accept that as an acceptable “web-cam” option?
So if you have had some experience with this sort of thing and would like to make some recommendations… we are all ears!
Maybe I wasn’t clear enough. The USB extension cables aren’t working. As I research I find that this is a limitation of the USB technology and to get a camera to work over extension cables is nearly impossible if the length is any longer than 10 to 15 feet.
That being said, I am wide open to the idea of something wireless web cam if that’s the best option. I just need to be sure that programs like Skype will work with it.
Anyone know of a good “wireless” web cam?
admin answers:
You can try USB extension cable to bring your USB to the length where you actually need the camera. The extension USB cable is around 15 dollars. If not then you might wanna try wireless camera for your PC.
