Konftel C50800 Hybrid is a premium video collaboration solution for medium to really large meeting rooms. Delivering outstanding image and audio quality, the package combines the Konftel Cam50 PTZ conference camera and the Konftel 800 conference phone with the Konftel OCC Hub for One Cable Connection. A single USB cable connects to your computer. Hybrid conferencing allows you to easily combine meeting apps and regular phone calls. So you can sit back with confidence and focus on the meeting.
Impressive optics
The Konftel Cam50 brings exceptional image quality to your video conferences at a fraction of the cost of other comparable conference cameras with PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom). It is based around premium class optics and outstanding precision – all the way from the lenses to the image sensor and the technology used to optimize the quality of the video. Even in low light, the image is crisp and clear.
Award winner for intuitive usability
The Konftel 800 offers connectivity for SIP, USB and Bluetooth®, enabling BYOD and use of all today’s communication and collaboration tools, whether in the cloud, on premise or in hybrid environments. The conference phone also meets the high standards we demand from our new products in terms of design and usability. In fact, the Konftel 800 is the winner of a Red Dot Award 2019 for its product design. Jury statement:
“The design of the Konftel 800 conference phone stands out for its distinctive use of forms and an intuitive usability.”
OmniSound for power and clarity
Konftel’s refined audio platform OmniSound® works actively to keep the dialog flowing in your meeting. In the Konftel 800, the result is particularly powerful and clear sound that allows participants to relax, knowing that they can hear well and be heard. This creates a natural sense of presence.
No hassle guarantee
Konftel OCC Hub is, as the name suggest, the hub of the video collaboration solution, offering One Cable Connection to the conference camera, speakerphone and screen. In practice, this means that the Konftel C50800 Hybrid kit fully supports BYOC – Bring Your Own Computer, where the user can bring the collaboration service to the meeting room on any laptop with a USB port.
Bring your own meeting
Whatever your preferred collaboration app or cloud service, Microsoft Teams, Webex, Hangouts, Zoom or any other, the Konftel C50800 Hybrid package will take care of the experience in the conference room. Bring your meeting with you on any laptop with a USB port, plug it in and you’re good to go.
How it works
It’s as simple as it is ingenious, wouldn’t you say? This is how the components of Konftel C50800 Hybrid fit together, with the Konftel OCC Hub making the solution a breeze to set up and use. It’s Plug & Play via the USB connection and requires no extra drivers as long as you have a modern version of Windows as the operating system* on your computer.
You can also opt to connect the screen directly to your computer, usually via HDMI, and then you don’t need the driver from DisplayLink (see below).
* The Konftel OCC Hub uses DisplayLink, the driver for which is already on your computer if you have Windows 10 (1607) Anniversary Update or later. Drivers for other operating systems can be found here: DisplayLink.
What is hybrid conferencing?
With the Konftel C50800 Hybrid, you’re not limited to video and voice calls in the collaboration app on your laptop. You can also welcome participants via regular IP phone calls. We call it Hybrid Conferencing.
A sense of presence
Medium and large meeting rooms are the PTZ camera’s natural habitat. A 72.5° field of view creates a sense of presence right from the start and it’s easy to zoom in to a suitable level. You can test the Konftel Cam50’s performance by taking the 12x optical zoom all the way. Show notes on a whiteboard or details of a product sample with impressive clarity.
Konftel Smart Microphone
With the Konftel Smart Microphone, you can expand the pick-up range to handle larger conferences. Connect one or two expansion microphones, depending on the size of the room. The Konftel Smart Microphone has built-in cancellation of echo and background noise through OmniSound®.
Maximize the audio experience
The cascading feature extends both the sound distribution and pick-up range for maximum coverage, giving you rich and full audio even in large rooms with more than 20 people. Up to three Konftel 800 devices can be daisy-chained by cable, completely without hassle and complexity.
