Before you begin using your device
for video conferencing
Setup requirements
Room size and setup
Your Meet hardware kit system is designed for a conference room of up to
20 persons. We recommend a room that contains either a long table with
the monitor at one end (optimal), or a round table. We do not recommend
using Meet Compute System with rooms set up in a classroom style.
The room must have the following:
•
Live Ethernet port (for wired network connections)
•
AC power outlet
Network requirements
Your Meet Compute System device works with both wired and wireless
networks. The network requirements are the same as those for Google
Meet. In addition, we recommend a minimum bandwidth of 1 Mbps or 2
Mbps (up/down) for group video conferencing. Please refer to the following
additional bandwidth requirements for video quality.
NOTE: Although you can use your Meet Compute System device over
a wireless network connection, we recommend using a wired network
connection for best sound and video quality.
For HD video quality
•
Latency should be less than 50 ms when pinging Google's public DNS
server at 8.8.8.8.
•
Outbound signals from a participant in all situations must meet a 3.2
Mbps bandwidth requirement.
•
Inbound signals depend on the number of participants:
- 2.6 Mbps with 2 participants
- 3.2 Mbps with 5 participants
- 4.0 Mbps with 10 participants
