LifeSize brings out two portable, all-in-one videoconferencing units for meeting rooms, executive offices, and home offices to exert more pressure on the more expensive Cisco/Tandberg and Polycom professional videoconferencing.

The Unity 50 is a tabletop or wall-mounted unit with a 24” LED display with 720p HD resolution combined with camera, microphone, speakers and endpoint technology. Unity 50 is a convenient desktop unit that can serve as a second monitor on person's desk when not used for videoconferencing.

Priced in USA at $3999, the Unity 50 is joined by the larger Unity 500 ($19,999 in USA) which stands on a pedestal and offers 40”LED display with 1080p HD resolution.

A touch-panel IP desktop phone is included with the Unity 500.

These are easy-to-use, easy-to-move systems that distinguish LifeSize’s attempt to lock up the small and medium business markets before the incumbents extend their product lines downward from enterprise conferencing.
