This category covers accessories and mounts for video conferencing systems: wall and display mounts, table stands, cables and other add-on parts. It suits office managers, meeting room installers and anyone setting up a remote workspace. Over 200 products are available, mostly from Logitech, Yealink, Cisco and HP Poly.
How to choose conference equipment accessories and mounts
Compatibility with your model. Most accessories are made for a specific manufacturer's series, so a Logitech, Yealink or Cisco mount may not fit another company's device. Start by checking the exact model of your camera, video bar or controller against the product description.
Mounting method. A wall mount saves space and lets you place the camera above the screen, while a table stand is handy where drilling is not allowed. Check the screen size and weight, and whether the mount matches the VESA hole pattern.
Cables and power. A long USB cable often becomes unstable, so a larger room usually calls for an active USB extender or a network cable. Check the connector type (HDMI, USB-A, USB-C, Ethernet) and whether the device runs on Power over Ethernet (PoE) or needs a separate power adapter.
Room size and audio. The microphones in a video bar are generally designed for small and medium rooms. A long table or a larger room will need extra microphones, so look at the pickup range the manufacturer states.

Frequently asked questions
Will one mount fit cameras from different manufacturers?
Not always. Manufacturer mounts fit best, although some cameras have a standard 1/4 inch thread and work with universal stands. Compare the weight of your device with the load rating of the mount before buying.
How do I connect a conference camera if the computer is far away?
Use an active USB extender or a solution that carries USB over an Ethernet cable. A plain long USB cable often works unreliably. Another option is a system with a built-in computer, which connects to the network and to the screen over HDMI.
Is one video bar enough for a large meeting room?
Usually not. Video bar microphones are meant for smaller and medium-sized rooms, so a long table or a bigger room needs extra microphones or a separate audio system. Check the pickup range stated by the manufacturer.
Will accessories work with Teams, Zoom or Webex?
The platform is decided by the main device, not by the accessory. A mount, cable or microphone must be compatible with your camera or video bar, and the meeting software runs through that device. Before buying, check that the main device is certified for the platform you use.
