Each of these systems provides cameras that feature a high definition video camera that delivers full HD 1280x720 video at 30 frames per second. The codec is based on the latest H.264 standard and provides H.263 support for interoperability with all standards-based video communications systems. The price point is just what we are looking for in small system, at around 5k for them system how could you go wrong? For the road warrior who needs to have professional video conferencing at their finger tips this system provides everything you need, except for the monitor.
But we have a solution for that, we plugged in a LifeSize system to our HP Mobile Workstation through the HDMI port on our laptop and it worked great.
