Teleconference kit
Details
Teleconference Kit: Useful for meeting rooms and confernence calls. Please note that this unit is not configured for outgoing long distance calls. You will need to arrange your own calling card or have your long-distance attendees call in.
Instructions
To use the teleconference kit, you need an available and active Ethernet port configured for Voice VLAN. Please contact the Computer Help Desk or your departmental support personnel for assistance.
We have two types of teleconference kits, one powered over Ethernet, and one with an external power supply. If your teleconference takes place in a location without power over Ethernet ports, let us know so we can arrange the appropriate teleconference kit for you.
For the power over Ethernet conference kit, simply plug the unit in to an active power over Ethernet port configured for Voice VLAN. The unit takes a few minutes to power on. Optionally, connect the satellite microphones.
For the external power supply conference kit, plug the ethernet cable into the triangle power hub and the other end into a working network wall jack. Then plug the teleconference station into the triangle power hub using the other ethernet cord. Now you can plug in the satellite microphones into the main teleconference station and plug the power in for the triangle power hub. The display will light up and become active, please be patient as this can take a few minutes. Press the phone icon and dial your call (Press 9 first for off campus calls). If you would like to recieve a call refer to the host number tagged on top of the main teleconference unit.
