🗹 1. Organized Cabling and Wiring
Although it may not be the most fun feature to consider, structured wiring is the backbone of your conference room system.
All wiring should be hidden within the walls or beneath tables, connecting video, audio, content sharing, and lighting to a centralized control system. This attention to detail is crucial for creating a polished, professional environment.
If your office is under construction, have your integrator install hidden wiring before the walls are closed over.
🗹 2. High-Quality Video Displays
In today’s hybrid era, you’ll need high-quality video displays to share both video conferencing feeds and content being reviewed.
Depending on your needs, you might choose a single large screen, dual side-by-side displays, or interactive touchscreens for presentations and brainstorming sessions. Ensure your display is bright, clear, and easy to view from all seating positions, even in rooms with natural light. Dealing with glare? Motorized shades can help with that.
For larger spaces or highly visual presentations, LED video walls are an excellent option that ensures everyone in the room can see content in crisp detail.
🗹 3. Integrated Audio Solutions
Speakers should be strategically placed to provide balanced sound throughout your meeting room. In-ceiling or in-wall speakers help maintain a clean, professional aesthetic, with wiring concealed for safety and elegance.
Paired with tabletop or ceiling microphones, these systems ensure that all voices are clearly heard during hybrid meetings or virtual calls.
🗹 4. Wireless Content Sharing
Gone are the days of fumbling with cords and adapters to share a presentation. A wireless content-sharing solution allows employees and guests to project their screens onto the main display with a few taps over Wi-Fi, streamlining meetings and saving time.
🗹 5. Convenient Tabletop Controllers
Simplify the room’s operation with a tabletop touch controller that connects to all devices and systems in the room. With one intuitive interface, you can adjust lighting, volume, displays, and even initiate video calls—all from the table.
🗹 6. Thoughtful Table and Chair Arrangement
Your seating arrangement should reflect how your room will be used. For frequent video conferencing, a crescent-shaped table oriented toward the displays ensures everyone is visible to the camera.
If your table is long and rectangular, consider installing multiple auto-tracking cameras that can switch to the speaker as they talk.
🗹 7. Advanced Lighting and Shade Control
Lighting sets the tone for every meeting. Integrate motorized shades to block glare during video calls and smart lighting systems to adjust the ambiance. Wall-mounted touch panels or custom keypads with pre-set options like “Presentation” or “Afternoon Meeting” allow you to change settings instantly.
🗹 8. User-Friendly Wall Control Panels
A touchscreen or keypad installed near the entrance can control the entire room—AV, lighting, shades, and even climate settings. Custom-engraved buttons make operation simple for all staff, ensuring meetings start on time without technical hiccups.
