Jabra launches PanaCast Room Kit for simpler hybrid meetings
The function room setup that doesn’t need an IT guy
Jabra is expanding its hybrid work ecosystem with the new PanaCast Room Kit.
It’s a video conferencing solution built for meeting rooms. But it skips the usual complexity. No tangled cables, no custom programming, and no need for IT on standby.
The kit is designed for teams of three to 15 people. Setup takes minutes: Connect the cameras, place the speakers and microphones, and link everything with a single cable.
That’s it. A standard room becomes a smart collaboration space without the usual friction.
Built for inclusive meetings
At the center of the experience is the PanaCast 55 VBS.
It uses a 180-degree multi-camera system powered by onboard AI. Jabra’s Virtual Director technology tracks speakers and reframes the view in real time.
Everyone stays visible. Even those seated at the far end of the table.
The goal is simple. Make remote participants feel like they’re in the room.
Audio keeps up with that promise. The PanaCast SpeakerMic extends coverage up to 11 meters. Every voice comes through clearly and at a consistent volume. No need to raise your voice just to be heard.
No-fuss by design
The system adds a Huddly L1 camera for a secondary angle. This gives meetings a more complete and inclusive view.
There’s also the Jabra Control IP touch controller. It handles meetings with simple, one-touch controls.
Everything works together with minimal input. No manual pan-tilt-zoom adjustments. No audio balancing. The AI handles it.
Enterprise-ready, plug-and-play simple
The PanaCast Room Kit is fully UC-certified. It works with Microsoft Teams, Zoom, and Google Meet.
It also runs on the Microsoft Device Ecosystem Platform (MDEP), bringing enterprise-grade security and reliability.
The idea is straightforward. High-end meeting tech shouldn’t be hard to use.
From small huddle spaces to larger boardrooms, the kit scales without added complexity. It removes the usual barriers to hybrid collaboration.
Whether it’s a quick team sync or a full boardroom discussion, the PanaCast Room Kit aims to give everyone a front-row seat.

Sony announces open-back INZONE H6 Air
Deeper and tighter bass, more immersive gaming soundscape
Gamers are set to get another immersive headphones from Sony with the launch of the INZONE H6 Air.
This latest offering features an open-back acoustic structure and custom drivers for deep and tight bass, thanks to back ducts integrated into the drivers.
The open-back structure also helps with a realistic immersive sound field, making gamers feel they are in the game space.
This design minimizes internal reflections by leaving the housing unobstructed. The result is accurate sound field reproduction exactly as game creators intended.
The Sony INZONE H6 Air also features precision-tuned driver units engineered with the same technology as Sony’s renowned MDR-MV1 open-back studio monitor headsets. It is specially adapted for this particular wearable.
Back ducts integrated into the driver unit help deliver deep and controlled bass reproduction, while maintaining clear separation of mids and lows. This detail is helpful especially for titles where rich sound detail matters.
Crafted with premium aluminum, the INZONE H6 Air is also one of Sony’s lightest gaming headsets at just 199 grams. The headset uses the same spring hinge headband design seen on the INZONE H9 II.
Furthermore, the headset features an “RPG/Adventure” equalizer profile as it is developed with sound engineers from PlayStation Studios.
This specific profile is optimized for RPG and adventure titles, recreating the acoustic experience of a sound studio and delivering an immersive listening experience.
An additional cardioid boom mic focuses on voice angled towards the user’s mouth, eliminating unnecessary side noise.
Fnatic Edition devices, INZONE Buds Glass Purple
In addition to the Sony INZONE H6 Air, Sony has launched the Fnatic Editions of the INZONE Mouse-A, INZONE Mat-F, and INZONE Mat-D.
This next step in the collaboration between Sony and Fnatic makes the professional esports club even more present in fans’ daily gaming experience.
Rounding out the new releases is the INZONE Buds in Glass Purple colorway. This joins the previous black and white options, giving owners plenty of choices to suit their styles.
