Who can offer some advice for setting up some video conferencing?

Query by todvango: Who can supply some assistance for setting up some video conferencing?
If you are going to tackle this, I am frightened I have to give some facts about the problem we are facing.

We are setting up a little conference space with a personal computer devoted to push some video clip and conferencing gear. We have every thing in location and running at 100% with the exception of the actual video conferencing digital camera. We imagined just a decent web-cam would work but the dilemma we are getting is the laptop or computer and all of its related connections are in the corner of this space and the net cams in the regional shop all appear to be USB primarily based. When we attempt to operate the USB cable of any appreciable length to get the camera in which it would will need to be it doesn't work. (About 30' from the computer). We ahve even attempted driven USB hubs and active extension cables, no luck. So we are actually starting to think that a USB digital camera is not the very best option.

So now that you recognize the challenge, what CAN we use as a camera that would be identified as a "net cam" so packages like Skype would see the video signal and permit us to do video clip chats? Would a normal video clip digital camera perform? How about a protection camera? The only dilemma is most of these are going to give us RCA jacks, BNC connections, or S-Video clip. If we bought a card for the personal computer that would accept Coax or RCA video in, would Skype even take that as an acceptable "world wide web-cam" option?

So if you have had some encounter with this type of issue and would like to make some suggestions... we are all ears!
Maybe I wasn't obvious enough. The USB extension cables aren't functioning. As I research I discover that this is a limitation of the USB engineering and to get a digital camera to function above extension cables is almost unattainable if the length is any extended than 10 to 15 ft.

That currently being stated, I am wide open to the idea of something wireless world wide web cam if that is the finest choice. I just want to be certain that plans like Skype will operate with it.

Any person know of a good "wireless" internet cam?

You can check out USB extension cable to bring your USB to the length exactly where you really will need the digital camera. The extension USB cable is all around 15 bucks. If not then you may possibly wanna try wireless digital camera for your Computer.
