What's the first question when someone hops on to an online call?

It's commonly "Can you hear me?". And this question is often followed by a tedious session of troubleshooting, dragging conference calls on unnecessarily.

Imagine if we could seamlessly connect to the meeting call with a single touch, and everything works perfectly without much interference. That's exactly what Jabra intends to do with their new enterprise product, the PanaCast 50 Video Bar System.

With more than 150 years of experience, the Danish company introduces a simple solution for the corporate conundrum

The Jabra PanaCast 50 Video Bar System is an integrated solution that includes an Android-based compute unit and state-of-the-art System-on-a-Chip (SoC), speakers, microphones, video camera, as well as network and display interfaces for simple setup.

It comes with a 10.1-inch touch controller to seamlessly manage the meeting experience with just a few taps prior to commencing a critical discussion. The system natively and securely runs Microsoft Teams Rooms on Android or Zoom Rooms.

The complete portfolio delivers flexible deployment options to bring the best collaboration experience with either an integrated solution on Android, a modular one on Windows through the PanaCast 50 Room Systems with Lenovo and Crestron, or a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) solution to pair with the PanaCast 50.

Here are some features that set the PanaCast 50 Video Bar System apart from other conference call equipment:

For starters, the PanaCast 50 Video Bar System comes with a 180° field-of-view through its Panoramic-4K multi-camera coverage in the room enabling true-to-life representation of the attendees in the space.

The device comes with four powerful speakers and eight professional-grade microphones arranged in a zero-vibration setup complete with active noise cancelling (ANC). The system can also identify and remove residual echoes and static noise.

Meanwhile, remote participants may find its Intelligent Meeting Room Experiences, which include the Virtual Director, Intelligent Zoom, and Dynamic Composition, helpful in keeping participants engaged throughout the meeting.

Aside from all that, the PanaCast 50 Video Bar System is packed with quality-of-life features

You can start a meeting with a single touch on the touchscreen panel. Cables are no longer a major headache as installation is fast and easy with minimal cabling to deal with.

It's also equipped with an environmental sensor to detect the air quality in the room in real-time. Plus, the coolest sensor is perhaps the ultrasonic motion sensor that detects people in the room and primes itself so it is ready to go at any time.


All these features are made possible thanks to its AI-powered software-defined platform

In the realm of video conferencing solutions, simplicity and ease of use have become paramount. The PanaCast 50 Video Bar System, with its integrated features for video meetings, makes installation, management, and utilisation a breeze. With a one-touch start and join capability, additional devices are rendered unnecessary. This streamlined approach offers not only simplicity but also enhanced security and scalability, making it an ideal choice for deploying and managing video conferencing in small to medium-sized meeting spaces.

In 2022, Jabra conducted an extensive online survey known as "Hybrid Ways of Working". This survey reached out to a diverse group of 2,800 knowledge workers spanning six countries. The findings were clear: empowering employees to have more control over their work environment, including when and where they work, has a profoundly positive impact. It boosts their sense of belonging within the organisation, fuels motivation, enhances productivity, and contributes to their overall mental wellbeing. This revelation underscores the growing importance of flexible work arrangements and their profound implications for the modern workforce.

The PanaCast 50 Video Bar System is now available in Malaysia at a price of RM26,070.
