Welcome to the No Jitter Roll, the regular round-up of news about the communications and collaboration industry. Today, we recap some partner announcements made at Zoomtopia this week, including from Poly, Observe.AI, Cresta, and Palo Alto Networks.
Poly Introduces Zoom Rooms System
Device maker Poly, now
a part of HP, introduced its
latest Zoom Rooms-certified conference room system, the Poly Studio Systems for Zoom Rooms. The Poly Studio System includes the HP Mini Conferencing PC and a Poly video bar device to match the size of the room, which can include the Poly Studio R30 for small-sized rooms, the Poly Studio USB for medium-sized rooms, and the Poly Studio E70 for large-size rooms.
Additionally, the system comes with the new Poly TC10 controller and scheduler, which can be used as a native Zoom Rooms Controller or as a Zoom Rooms scheduling display. The Poly TC10 is available either as a part of the Poly Studio for Zoom Rooms or separately as a standalone accessory and room scheduling display.
The Poly Studio System for Zoom Rooms with the Poly TC10 controller/scheduler will be available to North America and Europe later this month, and it will be available worldwide in 2023.
