Jabra PanaCast 50 - Black - 4K - 180° field of view - video bar - small rooms

Video conferencing - the "new normal": Online meetings with customers or team meetings in the home office have become commonplace. That's why it's all the more important to have the right technology on your side to ensure that everything runs smoothly. And that's where manufacturer Jabra has a new intelligent solution for you: the PanaCast 50 Videobar offers excellent sound with 4 powerful speakers and 8 microphones so that all participants can communicate clearly with each other. And if you're going to hold a video conference, you want to see everyone clearly, without any distortion of the image, right? For this, Jabra supplies a multi-camera array with three 13-megapixel cameras, which can thus cover an entire room - 180° panoramic view in 4K resolution included! In addition, an on-device AI controls a range of smart features such as automatic speaker recognition. Experience intuitive and high-quality online meetings with the Jabra PanaCast 50!

As mentioned earlier, the Jabra PanaCast 50 keeps you in full view with superb 4K resolution, intelligent zoom and 180° panoramic view. In fact, the high-precision multi-camera array with three 13-megapixel cameras covers the entire room. Jabra has also integrated its patented real-time stitching technology into the PanaCast 50, which automatically stitches three video feeds together live to create a continuous 180° view. The video bar's camera automatically detects how many participants are currently in the room and adjusts the image accordingly. If another participant enters or leaves the room during the course of the online meeting, the PanaCast 50 also automatically detects the change and adjusts the image to the new number of participants. Jabra has also equipped the PanaCast 50 with the Vivid HDR function so that the picture quality does not deteriorate even in changing light conditions.

Let's move on to the sound quality of the PanaCast 50 Videobar: we all know how it is: out of five online meeting participants, two are perfectly understandable and with three participants, the voice keeps breaking off or there is a strange echo. In short, the quality often leaves a lot to be desired. To help you have a successful meeting with perfect sound, Jabra has built in four powerful speakers - two 50 mm woofers and two 20 mm tweeters - with premium HD stereo sound in a vibration-neutralising arrangement. In addition, eight professional microphones and high-precision voice detection provide the perfect sound for meeting rooms and today's office environments. Intelligent algorithms automatically detect and filter out echoes and background noise. In addition, the sophisticated full-duplex technology ensures that all meeting participants can take part in the conversation in real time at all times. Especially short interjections, which develop normally in a natural conversation, remain easily understandable.

In addition to the convincing speaker and microphone qualities, the PanaCast 50 Videobar has a powerful Edge AI processor chip that uses algorithms specially developed by Jabra to intuitively follow your meeting progress. In practice, this means that the video conferencing tool automatically recognises the respective speaker and then adjusts the image section accordingly. The result: important content is the focus and all participants also get everything.

To experience a modern workflow, Jabra's whiteboard software is also available to guarantee perfect whiteboard recording. PanaCast Whiteboard makes it easy to include whiteboards in video conferences by correcting distortions so your whiteboard is clearly presented to all participants. You can simply use any whiteboard and the PanaCast 50 does the rest for you.

Keeping everything in view is also the principle of the video bar: the software of the PanaCast 50 namely counts anonymously how many people are in the room and can inform you as soon as the permitted number of people has been exceeded. Especially in our current times, this function is actually necessary and makes your everyday work much easier, so that you can take care of other hygiene rules. The detection is done via the 180° data stream and provides real-time data on the number of people even if the video stream only shows a certain person or a certain area. In addition, the Jabra Xpress visual data allows you to analyse past meetings and make data-driven decisions - and you don't even need a PC.

The Jabra PanaCast 50 videobar is easy to install and has three installation options to suit any room. You can choose between a wall mount, table mount or screen mount. A wall mount is already included, which is ideal for rooms where the PanaCast 50 will be permanently installed. With the Jabra table mount, you can also use the video bar as a freestanding device and use it in several locations, for example. Or you can mount your PanaCast 50 video bar under or above your screen with the VESA-compatible screen mount for more flexible and dynamic meetings.

One more note about powering the Jabra PanaCast with a laptop/PC. External power is not required when connected to a USB 3.0 port on your computer via the supplied USB cable. If your computer is only equipped with USB 2.0 ports, an external USB hub is required to power the camera. The RJ45 port also allows you to use the video bar for Jabra XPress software, which helps you keep different devices in distributed locations and with different users up to date. You can easily connect your mobile devices via the Bluetooth button. The Jabra PanaCast is plug-and-play ready, so you'll be ready for your first video conference in minutes.
