Google Hangouts in a large conference room

Short post for posterity:

The Phoenix Spider MT505 USB/SIP speakerphone (with up to 15 extensions!) works great with the Chromebox for Meetings dedicated Google Hangouts device.

The PTZOptics 12X-USB also works great with the Chromebox for Meetings dedicated Google Hangouts device. This is a true 12x Pan/Tilt/Zoom conference-quality camera with USB3 output.

Both work as pure driverless USB devices that a Chromebox for Meetings expects and neither requires any additional software to be installed - they "just work" when you plug them into the Chromebox for Meetings (or a regular Chromebox or a PC).

Now we can finally replace our old Lifesize Room 200 conference room video system and do pure Google Hangout video meetings in our 40 foot long conference room. Phew!

Thanks so much to Levi Davis @ ConferenceRoomSystems.com for working with us on this!
