good conferencing experience.

We recommend that you place the microphone(s) as close to all users as possible, and that you avoid putting equipment with noisy fans, such as computers and projectors, close to a microphone.

If you are using more than one microphone, place them far apart to minimize the interference. The required distance between the microphones depends on the acoustics of your room; normally 2 m (6.5 ft) will suffice.

The MX300 internal microphone may suffice in a small office or meeting room when all participants are closer to the display than 2.5 m (8 ft). Still a correctly placed external microphone often performs better. The internal microphone is automatically disabled when connecting an external microphone.

If you want to learn more about optimizing your office or meeting room for video conferencing, please read the Video conferencing room primer and Guidelines for video conferencing room acoustics documents that are available on the Cisco web site, http://www.cisco.com/go/telepresence/docs.
