Meeting room AV and remote setup

Run this before a hybrid meeting to confirm the room display, audio routing, and remote participant connections work. Use it when presenters arrive or when you are the meeting host preparing the room.

⏱ 15 min ★ Medium
Target

Presenter laptop is not connected to the room display, room audio output and microphone pickup have not been verified, and remote participant access has not been confirmed.

Obstacle

Presenter devices use different connector types than the room system which can delay connection, conferencing credentials or single-button join options may be unknown, and microphone pickup can produce low volume or echo if routing and gain are not adjusted.

Expectation

Presenter laptop displays on the room screen, room speakers and microphone transmit audio to and from remote participants at a clear volume with no echo, and remote attendees can see and hear the presenter.

Tools
  • • HDMI cable — 1
  • • USB-C to HDMI adapter — 1
  • • Room control tablet or remote — 1
  • • Conference speaker/microphone (room device or USB) — 1

    Check mic pickup, echo, and fallback steps
