You need a total of four components to conduct a video conference: microphone, loudspeaker, camera and a terminal or display device.

The devices can either be connected individually to the terminal or you can use a video conference all-in-one system. In most cases, combinations of the individual components are already available.

Headsets are now standard equipment for video calls from the home office. If you are on the road a lot and have to hold video conferences in between, it is more practical to pack only one headset instead of separate headphones and a microphone. In the office, it is also easier to check only one device in case of sound problems.

Nowadays, end devices already have a microphone and loudspeakers built in. But they are not recommended for permanent use in video conferences. If a conversation partner is present without a headset and there is audio overlap, this conversation partner is suppressed and cannot be heard by the other participants in brief moments. Result: The participants without a headset are unconsciously at a disadvantage.

The biggest difference between the two technologies is that the PTZ (Pan Tilt Zoom) camera automatically 'tracks' the person standing in front of it. This is useful when several people are present at a video conference and each of them is speaking. Then the person speaking is automatically focused. Modern webcams can automatically focus on the person. It is more for video calls with one person.

For professional video conferences in the meeting room, you need a display device, such as a projector, display or screen, so that you can see your discussion partner clearly.

A separate camera, loudspeakers/headphones and microphone are necessary so that you can see and understand your conversation partner optimally. With many accessories, it is more convenient to permanently connect these to a terminal with multiple connections.
