Jabra PanaCast 40 VBS Bar Only · 8701-231
The compact video bar for small rooms that need to look bigger.
The Jabra PanaCast 40 VBS Bar Only was created to transform huddle rooms and small meeting rooms into more natural hybrid collaboration spaces, with 4K panoramic video, AI-powered intelligent framing, clear audio, and simple management.
Room Transformation
More visible people, less friction, more natural meetings.
In small rooms, the problem is rarely just the camera. It's the tight angle, people out of frame, poor audio, and messy setup. The PanaCast 40 VBS Bar Only solves this with a compact, discreet bar ready for professional collaboration.
180° without blind spots
Ultra-wide field of view to include participants near the screen, in corners, or leaning against the wall.
4K panoramic image
Resolution up to 3840 x 1080 px, with up to 4x digital zoom to better capture the room.
Clear audio
6 beamforming microphones with echo cancellation and non-vocal noise suppression.
Secure management
Remote management, access control, device lockdown, and administration through compatible platforms.
Artificial Intelligence
The room adapts to the meeting, not the other way around.
The video experience is supported by smart features that adjust framing, highlight speakers, and help remote participants better follow the conversation.
Dynamic Composition
Presents a room view and close-ups of active participants, making the conversation easier to follow.
Virtual Director
Identifies who is speaking and adjusts the image in real time to give remote participants more context.
Intelligent Zoom
Keeps participants framed even when they move around the room.
Intelligent Meeting Space
Defines virtual boundaries to focus only on people within the meeting zone, useful in glass-walled or open spaces.
Installation and usage
Less technical complexity. Faster meeting entry.
The Bar Only version allows for a simple video conferencing setup with a touchscreen, without the mandatory need for a dedicated touch controller. It also supports appliance mode, BYOD mode, and flexible mounting options.
Use cases
Ideal for companies that want to professionalize small rooms.
Huddle rooms
Perfect for compact rooms where everyone needs to be visible without repositioning the camera.
Small meeting rooms
Suitable for spaces up to about 4.5 m x 4.5 m, with integrated audio and video.
Hybrid environments
Improves the experience for those outside the room, with intelligent framing and better conversation comprehension.
Microsoft Teams Rooms
Reference 8701-231 oriented towards Microsoft Teams Rooms, with integration for enterprise environments.
Centralized management
Remote administration through compatible tools, useful for IT teams and multiple offices.
