MAXHUB has launched the XCore Kit Pro for Microsoft Teams at Infocomm 2024, which it created to enhance bring your own device (BYOD) meeting setups.
The immersive communications provider’s award-winning video conferencing solution, XCoreKit Pro, integrates with Teams Rooms of all sizes, improving remote communication, presentation, and team collaboration.
The solution includes an 11.6” touch console and Intel Core i5 processor, plus simplified installation and cable management, built-in wireless for content sharing, and 4K-enabled sharing.
Last year, MAXHUB unveiled its XT series of certified hardware kits for Microsoft Teams Rooms, which included the MAXHUB XCore Kit, MAXHUB XT10-WS Kit, and MAXHUB XT10-VB Kit.
Albert Kooiman, Senior Director of Microsoft Teams Partner Engineering and Certification at Microsoft, commented on the product partnership at the time: “We welcome MAXHUB, as a new hardware partner to the Teams Rooms ecosystem, for Microsoft Teams Rooms and a wide range of USB peripherals Certified for Microsoft Teams.
The MAXHUB Microsoft Teams Rooms XCore Kit is ideal to upgrade any of your high-impact BYOD spaces to a full Microsoft Teams Rooms experience, at the most affordable price in the market.”
In January, MAXHUB and Nureva partnered on two plug-and-play Microsoft Teams Rooms bundles for an inclusive, compelling meeting experience.
The XCore Kit Pro is currently subject to Microsoft’s compatibility and certification testing, with certification expected in the third quarter of this year.
The New XBoard V7 and Ultra-Wide Display
MAXHUB announced two further product releases at North America’s biggest pro AV exhibition and conference.
The XBoard V7 is a Windows-based interactive flat panel (IFP), designed for collaborative spaces and supported by the MAXHUB operating system.
The ultra-high-definition AI-powered Trident Lens System provides meeting attendees with different angles for more natural hybrid meeting experiences.
A 16-microphone array and Intelligent Audio Fence combine to minimise background noise occurring outside of a virtual fence.
The XBoard V7 also comprises a 4K touch-screen display, IR detection and intelligent Touchscreen Technology so multiple users can simultaneously engage with content.
Another version of the XBoard V7 that supports Microsoft Teams is expected in Q4 of 2024.
MAXHUB also revealed the UW92NA 92-inch ultra-wide display, built for presentation environments.
The company’s latest addition to its Ultra-Wide (UW) series offers users 5K ultra-high-definition and 21:9 wide aspect ratio.
The UW92NA can be used in either landscape or portrait mode, and it supports external control through IP, Serial, and Open Pluggable Specification (OPS) slots.
Darren Lin, MAXHUB USA’s CEO, outlined the benefits of its new displays and video conferencing solutions: “Our solutions are designed to elevate productivity and engagement within collaborative environments, harnessing advanced technology to amplify team interaction.
We aim to foster meaningful connections and distinguish ourselves by creating and offering unique tools that drive innovation and creativity and enhance communication experiences.”
MAXHUB is aiming to become a global brand for customers to enhance meeting efficiency, collaboration, and workplace communications, David Meng, President of Global Business Group at MAXHUB, told UC Today at ISE.
The MAXHUB XT Series builds onto this vision by enabling unified communication and collaboration within hybrid work settings.
