The Jabra PanaCast 40 Video Bar System bundles the PanaCast 40 VBS with the Jabra Control IP touchscreen controller in a single package, providing a complete small-room Android meeting system ready for immediate deployment. The Control IP provides dedicated one-touch meeting join, content sharing, and room management independent of any personal device.
Hardware is identical to the standalone PanaCast 40 VBS: Android 13, 4K AI camera with Dynamic Composition, Virtual Director, Intelligent Zoom, and Intelligent Meeting Space, built-in beamforming microphones and speakers, Kensington lock compatibility, and MDEP security. The bundle eliminates the need to source and configure a separate room controller, simplifying procurement and reducing per-room deployment steps.
For Australian IT teams deploying small meeting rooms at scale — offices, meeting suites, regional branches — the PanaCast 40 Video Bar System provides a consistent, complete deployment package with all components tested and configured to work together out of the box.
- Complete room system in one bundle — PanaCast 40 VBS and Jabra Control IP included; no separate controller procurement or configuration required.
- Android 13 native room system — runs Microsoft Teams or Zoom Rooms natively; participants join from the touchscreen without a connected laptop.
- Jabra Control IP touchscreen — dedicated room controller for one-touch meeting join, content sharing, and room status display.
- 4K AI camera with intelligent framing — Dynamic Composition, Virtual Director, Intelligent Zoom, and Intelligent Meeting Space for automatic participant framing and speaker tracking.
- MDEP enterprise security — Microsoft Device Ecosystem Platform ensures the system meets corporate security requirements with ongoing updates.
- Under 12-minute installation — complete system can be wall-mounted and ready for its first meeting in under 12 minutes based on Jabra testing.
