Why each option
The Cisco TelePresence System 500 is optimized for participants seated between 1.2 and 1.8 meters (4 to 6 feet) from the display to achieve the intended life-size video experience.
The CTS 500 uses a fixed-focus integrated camera and does not automatically adjust its position or zoom to compensate for varying seating distances.
0.5 to 0.75 meters is too close, placing participants outside the camera's intended depth of field and making them appear oversized on the far end.
Cisco specifies 1.2 m to 1.8 m (4 to 6 feet) as the optimal seating distance for the CTS 500 to align a participant's face correctly within the camera field of view and produce the life-size image effect on the integrated display. Sitting outside this range degrades perceived eye contact and image scale. This distance is fixed by the fixed focal length of the integrated camera, which does not auto-adjust position.
3.0 to 5.0 meters is the seating range typical of larger immersive telepresence rooms, not the compact single-user CTS 500 system.
