What This Standard Covers
- Network switch placement and PoE budget requirements for conference codecs
- Display mounting heights and sight-line geometry for hybrid meetings
- Microphone coverage zones and ceiling versus table mounting tradeoffs
- Pre-wire conduit runs for camera, codec, and control cabling
- Power outlet placement at the table and at the wall for clean cable management
- Commissioning checklist for audio, video, and network readiness before handoff
Who It Is For
- Commercial architects specifying AV infrastructure in conference room drawings
- General contractors coordinating trades on office fit-out projects
- IT managers reviewing low-voltage scope before construction documents are issued
- Owners evaluating conference room layout options during design development
When To Use It
- During schematic design when room dimensions and furniture layout are being set
- Before permit drawings are issued to lock in conduit and outlet locations
- At pre-construction meetings to align electrical and low-voltage trades
- During close-out to verify all pre-wire and infrastructure is complete before AV install

Field Notes
A conference room that looks right on a rendering can fail the first morning someone tries to run a hybrid call. The one-pager addresses the decisions that are hard to fix after drywall: where the codec lives, how the mic field is distributed, and whether the network is sized for the job.
We use this document in design meetings to move conversations faster. When everyone in the room can see the same one-page layout, the coordination questions get asked earlier, and the punch-list at the end of the job is shorter.
