Advancements in technology have bought dramatic changes in every field; Audio & Video conferencing is not any exception. Traditional Video conferencing endpoints were limited by their functionality. Bulky Hardware, expensive (high cost of ownership), propriety cabling (not flexible), hard to install & operate. We have even seen laminated sheets on board room tables explaining how to dial & receive calls, which itself is a fail as it can be challenging and time-consuming. Else the IT department would step in to set up & assist the team in setting up a call, which we think is not a valuable use of IT resources.
Contrary to traditional solutions, the biggest advantages with USB conference endpoints is that they are portable, easy to install & operate. They are fully capable of producing business-grade HD Audio & Video output. More importantly, they save you time, money & get the job done with minimal to no resistance. You DO NOT need an IT degree to operate USB endpoints. Plug & Play conferencing will simplify the user experience, maintain streamlined workflow & supports multiple platforms.
During our company’s design phase, we did plan to include standards-based traditional Audio & Video conferencing end points. However, after analyzing market trends & exploring the complete range of Plug & Play solutions from multiple vendors findings have surprised us and boosted our conference. Thus, contrary to our initial plan we have come to an interesting conclusion to run specifically with Plug & Play Solutions.
Until recently what was considered “cheapo USB solutions” have dramatically flipped the tables around; They carry a range of solutions to suit most conference room sizes, producing business-grade HD Video & Audio output with just a simple Plug & Play deployment. Only catch with USB solutions is choosing endpoints which fits in perfectly with your requirements. That’s exactly where we can assist you, feel free to contact us for an obligation free discussion.
A good example is Poly(Previously Polycom) who is one of the leaders in standards-based Audio & Video endpoints that have recently launched range of USB peripherals such as Poly Studio, Poly Cube, EagleEye Mini or VoxBox which proves the raise of USB endpoints for meeting rooms. Brands like Logitech, Jabra, Sennheiser, Poly, Konftel, Aver, Huddly, ClearOne, HuddleCam, and few more already operate in this space for a long time.

A recent study by Synergy Research states that there is a big drive towards USB driven video rooms in the conference market. This segment jumped well over 40% by Q1 2019 from less than 5% in 2016. In contrast, there is a decline in traditional codec-based video solutions to 70%, which were 90% back in 2016.
