Biamp Adds More Zoom

Biamp’s Parlé VBC 2800 Conferencing Bar and Vidi 280 Conferencing Camera are now Certified for Zoom Rooms. The Parlé VBC 2800 is a high-performance all-in-one video bar with upgraded camera optics ideal for all meeting spaces up to and including large rooms. The Parlé VBC 2800 features a dual camera system with 120° horizontal field of view and up to 16x digital zoom with a 50-megapixel image sensor, offering enhanced field of vision and clearer digital zoom. The Vidi 280 features this same camera technology in a compact electronic pan-tilt-zoom (ePTZ) conference room camera, capturing crisp detail at farther distances.

“Enabling seamless, high-quality video collaboration between multiple locations, in meeting spaces of all types and sizes, is essential for creating an effective, productive work environment,” said Joe Andrulis, Executive Vice President of Corporate Development, Biamp. “The Zoom Rooms certification of our Parlé VBC 2800 and Vidi 280 further expands our portfolio of certified solutions into larger conference rooms, ensuring that IT managers can confidently implement extraordinary video conferencing solutions across all of their Zoom Rooms, and that users can enjoy unparalleled video performance in these spaces.”

Both the Parlé VBC 2800 conferencing bar and Vidi 280 conference room camera feature dual 4K UHD ePTZ camera systems with AI auto framing that automatically switches between cameras for the best shot. Compact and silent, this dual camera system features a 16x zoom that delivers long-range image fidelity and sharpness of meeting attendees further down the table in larger meeting rooms.

With integrated Acoustic Echo Cancellation and industry-leading AI Noise Reduction to suppress distracting sounds, the Parlé VBC 2800 utilizes a 27-microphone array and Biamp Beamtracking™ technology that actively tracks and intelligently mix conversations from around the room. Two smart speakers use distortion compensation and dynamic bass enhancement technology to create room filling audio with superior speech reproduction for effective, efficient meetings. Using one touch AI-powered Biamp Launch, this bar can be setup and optimized for extraordinary audio, delivering the best performance for the room’s unique specifications.

For those requiring a powerful camera and simplified setup, the Vidi 280 is a small, unobtrusive stand-alone conferencing camera that is easy to mount around a display and easy to connect to Zoom Rooms. The Vidi 280 enclosure includes a built-in five-element microphone array for audio needs, but it can also be paired with the Parlé ABC 2500 conferencing audio bar in standard mounting scenarios or with the Parlé CBC 2500 conferencing audio bar in environments with open ceilings, offering a higher performance AV meeting room experience.
