The components of a video conferencing system include:

  • A network for data transfer, usually a high-speed broadband Internet connection, which uses similar technology as voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) . Local area network (LAN) and integrated services digital network (ISDN) connections are occasionally used as well.

  • A computer screen, monitor, TV or projector that can broadcast video output.
  • Headphones, laptop speakers or professional speakers that can be used for audio output.
  • Hardware or software based coding and decoding technology, called codecs, which can compress analog audio and video (AV) data into digital packets on the distributing end and then decompress the data at the endpoint.
  • Acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) software which reduces audio delays and supports real time
