Plantronics, HP Collaborate on Videoconferencing Solution


By Paula Bernier - Executive Editor, TMC

HP and Plantronics have joined forces to deliver a native Microsoft Teams videoconferencing solution. This offering includes HP Elite Slice technology for G2 Skype Room Systems, and the Polycom EagleEye IV USB camera and Trio 8500 audio technology.

HP Elite Slice technology for meeting rooms G2 Skype Room Systems allows for one-touch collaboration, features noise cancellation, has a visual queue, and more. The Polycom EagleEye IV USB cameras do high-definition capture at up to 1080p60, have 4x and 12x zoom options, 180-degree panning, a 65-degree viewing angle that’s expandable to 85 degrees, and an optional digital extender. And the Trio 8500 provides HD audio and ease of navigation.

The joint solution is available in the U.S. now through such distributors as Ingram Micro and Synnex Corp. It will be available next year in Australia, Japan, and New Zealand. The solution will come to other APAC countries and Western Europe following that.

“As customers migrate to Microsoft Teams, Plantronics, and HP created a simple Microsoft Teams videoconferencing experience in larger conference rooms for employees to use and IT pros to deploy and manage,” said Phil Sherburne, general manager of the group systems business group at Plantronics. “Plantronics is all in on Microsoft Teams, and it made sense to work with HP to take videoconferencing with Microsoft Teams to the next level of simplicity.”

Lorena Kubera, vice president of commercial product management at HP, added: “Businesses are constantly looking for ways to simplify the video conference experience. Pairing our versatile meeting room system, HP Elite Slice G2 Audio-Ready, with the simplicity of the Polycom Trio 8500 and the EagleEye IV USB camera for the Polycom-HP SRS Bundle creates a seamless way to improve productivity and collaboration through Microsoft Teams.”
