The Webex® Room Kit Pro provides a powerful and flexible platform for creating the ultimate video collaboration experience – large, custom video rooms, including boardrooms, auditoriums, classroom theaters, conference rooms and purpose-built workspaces for vertical applications. The Room Kit Pro is the most advanced product within the Room Kit Series, built with integrators in mind and enabling flexibility and creativity for customized video collaboration rooms that delight customers.
The Room Kit Pro acts as the audio and video engine for Ultra-High-Definition (UHD) video collaboration applications and AV integrations in which multiple screens, cameras, and content sources may be required – either with the Webex Quad Camera, PTZ 4K Camera, Precision 60 Camera, or SpeakerTrack 60 dual camera. The Room Kit Pro continues the same artificial intelligence capabilities already offered on the rest of the Webex Room Series: intelligent views and framing, noise suppression, voice commands, and people count.

The Room Kit Pro delivers up to 2160p60 end-to-end UHD video. The codec’s rich set of video and audio inputs, flexible media engine, and support for up to three screens enable a variety of use cases, adaptable to your specific needs. The Room Kit Pro can be registered on premises or to the Webex cloud service.
The Room Kit Pro supports intelligent cameras and functionality to enable dynamic viewing capabilities and custom deployments for premium video meetings:
● Webex Quad Camera: Camera system with four embedded digital cameras that enable best overview and speaker tracking capabilities. With the Quad Camera, the Room Kit Pro can also deliver analytics such as people count.
● Webex SpeakerTrack 60 Camera: Dual camera system featuring a unique direct, fast-switching approach for speaker tracking with two Precision 60 cameras.
● Webex PTZ 4K Camera: A premium pan-tilt-zoom camera that provides superior video quality, powerful zoom capabilities, intelligent AI-based features, including PresenterTrack, and flexibility for optimized video collaboration experiences.
● Webex Precision 60 Camera: Enables users to provide superior video quality at any bandwidth. Designed specifically for video conferencing, the Precision 60 camera provides true-to-life quality for interaction and collaboration while featuring PresenterTrack.
With its powerful media engine, the Room Kit Pro lets you build the video collaboration room tailored to your specific requirements.
