Teleconferencing and audio conference systems

Teleconferencing and audio conference systems.

New communication media such as voice mail, the Internet, conference calling, video-conferencing and electronic presentations are driving the demand for better audio and communication technologies. At the same time, all organizations are looking for ways to decrease costs and complexity, while increasing efficiency and productivity.

Why is audio so important?

Audio is critical to electronic meetings. Over 70% of the information in a videoconference meeting, for example, is contained in the audio. If the video goes off, the meeting can proceed with just audio. If you lose the audio, the meeting is over! In audio teleconferencing, 100% of the information is audio!

Additionally, the effectiveness of such meetings is greatly impacted by the quality of the audio. High reverberation and noise will fatigue the users, reducing the effectiveness of the meeting.

The typical applications include:

  • audio conferencing
  • video conferencing
  • distance learning
  • board rooms
  • conference rooms
  • telemedicine
  • court rooms
  • hotel/convention centres.

So, what do you do next?

To better understand the application of audio teleconferencing products, it is helpful to understand the basics of acoustic room treatment. Audio conferencing products are designed to work in almost any teleconference environment. However, to maximize your audio quality, you need to prepare your audio conferencing site by taking all the contributory factors into consideration.

Get the room right first – your meeting room should be fit for purpose in all respects.

Important factors for the audio are:

  • Room Layout
    • Microphone type & placement
    • Loudspeaker type and location
  • Room Acoustics
  • Acoustic treatment
    • Reverberation
    • Echo
    • Background noise
