There are 3 options

• Wall mount (included in the box)
• Screen mount (sold separately)
• Table stand (sold separately) This stand will ONLY work with the PanaCast 50 Video Bar System and is not compatible with the original P50

Yes, it can support up to 2 screen through HDMI connections.

No, but Bring-Your-Own-Device mode support will come in the future.

Yes PanaCast 50 Video Bar System and the PanaCast Control come paired from the factory.

Yes, PanaCast 50 Video Bar System has an ingest HDMI port on the video bar that allows a user to present from their laptop without needing to join the ongoing Microsoft Teams Rooms or Zoom Rooms call from their laptop The system can also share content wirelessly.

Yes, but only currently on Zoom Rooms. This will be via Airplay (Apple screen mirroring) and Zoom Direct Share. The user can access this via the PanaCast Control interface.

_{The device sending to Gandalf via AirPlay must be running iOS version 4.2 or higher.}

PanaCast 50 Video Bar System has the exact same microphone and speaker components as the original PanaCast 50 and it passes Microsoft Teams designed for small-to-medium conference rooms (see below for reference).

• 1xRJ45, 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet port
• Bluetooth 5.0 dual mode (BR/EDR+LE)
• Ready-for Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac dual-band
• 2x USB 3.0 Type A, USB 3.0 Type C (BYOD mode, not supported at FCS)

Yes, PanaCast 50 Video Bar System comes with a built-in privacy cover.

Not at the moment. The Video Bar System base unit and PanaCast Control both have ready-for WiFi as Microsoft requires both devices to have WiFi for "future use". This feature will be enabled at a future date.

Yes, PanaCast 50 Video Bar System supports Bluetooth technology. Only the BT Beacon is being used at the moment.

10.1-inch LCD touch display

Yes, the Video Bar and PanaCast Control must be on the same network to pair and communicate. They plug into separate ethernet ports on the same network and pair in the cloud.

PanaCast 50 Video Bar System is based on Android 10 OS. We have plans to move to Android 13 OS at a future date.

PanaCast Control is an Android 10 OS based device. We have plans to move to Android 13 OS at a future date.

PanaCast Control supports Power over Ethernet (PoE). This means its power source comes directly from a network switch, meaning power and network connectivity are both provided by a single cable. Some customer sites will not support PoE so included in the box is a “PoE Injector”, an in-line power supply. This PoE injector plugs into a normal plug socket to provide the power. The network cable is plugged into the PoE injector and another cable connects the injector with the PanaCast Control.

PanaCast 50 Video Bar System Kit comes with a PoE (Power Over Ethernet) injector in the box. That applies only to the PanaCast Control, which requires only one cable to both power the unit and to connect to the network for data transfer. The video bar itself does connect to the network but requires a separate power supply.

Yes, the system can be changed from Microsoft Teams Rooms to Zoom Rooms, however it will require Jabra approval.

Both the Video Bar System and the PanaCast Control sign in using the same Microsoft Teams account, meaning InTune will see the same account and apply any necessary policies regardless of which device is signing in. However, If you have enabled device filters, you will need to add both the Video Bar System and PanaCast Control device ID’s to the filter. Similarly, if Corporate Owned Devices have been enabled within InTune, the MAC addresses of each device will need to be added.

Touchscreen TVs need the USB-A to USB-B cable in addition to the HDMI cable connection.
