LifeSize Room Installation Guide 3
Welcome to LifeSize Room
LifeSize high definition video communications systems enable anyone with dispersed
colleagues and operations to collaborate more clearly and effectively. Each system is
designed to make video communication a highly productive, simple, and reliable experience.
Preparing for Installation
As you prepare to install LifeSize Room, consider the physical conditions of the room,
compatibility with displays and your network configuration and settings. LifeSize
recommends you collect your network settings and system identification information before
you begin installation. Refer to “Initial Configuration” on page 5, which explains what
information you need to collect and provides space to record it.
Room Configuration
The size, shape, layout and occupancy of the room dictate where you place your video
conferencing components.
Caution: Avoid routing cables from the codec across foot-traffic areas as tripping on
the cables can cause both personal injury and permanent damage to the connectors in
the cables and codec. If cables must cross foot-traffic areas, use some form of cable
management system or strategy to avoid the possibility of tripping.
The lighting in your environment affects image quality. The optimal lighting for LifeSize
systems is 300 to 500 LUX. Consult your administrator or LifeSize Channel Partner for
specific lighting requirements for your environment. If light levels are too low, consider
adding artificial lighting. Indirect light from shaded sources or reflected light from pale walls
often produces excellent results. Avoid the following:
• direct sunlight on the subject matter, the background, or the camera lens
• direct illumination of the subject matter and camera lens
• colored lighting
• harsh side lighting or strong light from above
