Jabra has officially announced the launch of its new expandable room solutions, a modular suite of video collaboration tools engineered for mid-to-large meeting environments. The system prioritizes natural interaction and total room coverage, ensuring every participant is seen and heard with equal clarity regardless of their physical location.
Versatile Configurations for Evolving Workspaces
The new PanaCast Room Kits provide organizations with unprecedented flexibility, offering configurations equipped with one, three, or five cameras. This scalable architecture allows IT departments to implement a consistent user experience across diverse room sizes while maintaining the ability to expand hardware as business needs grow.
Advanced Hardware Integration
At the heart of this Android-based ecosystem is the Jabra PanaCast 55 VBS, integrated with the high-fidelity PanaCast SpeakerMic. By leveraging Jabra’s proprietary multi-camera technology, the system delivers a seamless, high-definition visual experience that is easy to manage and deploy without increasing technical complexity.
Executive Perspective: Prioritizing Inclusion
“Modern meeting environments demand technology that facilitates human connection without becoming a distraction,” stated Holger Reisinger, Senior Vice President of Jabra’s Video Business Unit. “Our focus with the PanaCast Room Kits was to engineer a balanced, inclusive experience for every seat. We merge intelligent video with professional-grade audio, enabling organizations to foster more authentic and confident digital interactions.”
Key Components of the Expandable Solution
The suite consists of three primary pillars designed for peak performance:
- Jabra PanaCast 55 VBS: An intelligent 180-degree panoramic video bar featuring Edge AI to ensure natural framing and visual clarity.
- Jabra PanaCast SpeakerMic: A specialized audio extension that captures voices uniformly across large tables and provides integrated meeting controls.
- AI-Driven Multi-Camera System: Powered by Huddly Crew technology, these cameras use multiple vantage points and intelligent director modes to dynamically track active speakers.
Streamlined Deployment and Management
Reflecting a commitment to Scandinavian design principles, the kits are optimized for rapid installation. The plug-and-play setup is supported by the Microsoft Device Ecosystem Platform (MDEP), ensuring secure and reliable performance. Jabra has even optimized the packaging to allow IT teams to configure components before the units are fully unboxed, significantly reducing labor time.
Pricing and Market Availability
The Jabra PanaCast Room Kits are scheduled for global release in the second quarter of 2026. Initial MSRP guidelines are as follows: Jabra PanaCast 55 VBS costs $3,799; SpeakerMic costs $549; cameras start at $749.
