Logitech ConferenceCam Kit with Intel NUC is an
Affordable, Simple and Complete Solution for Conference Rooms
Today Logitech (SIX:LOGN) (NASDAQ:LOGI) announced the
Logitech® ConferenceCam Kit with Intel® NUC video conferencing
system. Configured and validated by Logitech and Intel for
performance, simplicity and compatibility, the ConferenceCam Kit
includes a Logitech ConferenceCam, Intel® NUC and Intel® Unite™
application. The ConferenceCam Kit is compatible with virtually all
PC-based cloud services, and does not require users to bring their
own computer to start a video call. This enterprise-quality bundle
mitigates the complexity and cost for businesses to scale up from a
laptop-based experience, or scale beyond a boardroom telepresence
system to a flexible and affordable solution for any meeting
room.

“We have found that a significant number of Logitech
ConferenceCams are attached to dedicated computers in meeting
rooms, but purchasing, configuring and deploying a dedicated video
conference system in meeting spaces can be expensive, and it’s hard
for our customers to know what is compatible,” said Scott Wharton,
general manager of the Logitech video collaboration group.
“Logitech and Intel have taken the guesswork out of the equation.
We researched, developed and tested the Logitech ConferenceCam Kit
so it’s easy to set up, easy to use and delivers the most
affordable enterprise-quality video conferencing experience
available today.”
“We are delighted to be working with Logitech to help solve the
challenges that businesses face when they install video
conferencing systems in meeting spaces,” said Tom Garrison, vice
president and general manager of the Intel Business Client
Division. “Fully integrating the Intel NUC and Intel Unite
application into the Logitech ConferenceCam Kit provides customers
with an end-to-end system that is flexible, powerful and reliable,
yet simple to deploy, manage and use in any meeting space.”
The Logitech ConferenceCam Kit works natively with virtually any
video conferencing software or service and provides everything
needed to deploy video in a meeting room equipped with a display
and an Internet connection. Because it works with virtually all
PC-based video and web conferencing platforms, the solution can
adapt to the changing needs of both IT and users over time. It is
not a single-purpose solution locked into an infrastructure
investment or service provider choice. Instead, with ConferenceCam
Kit, you extend the flexibility and low switching costs associated
with cloud services all the way into the conference room.
The ConferenceCam Kit is optimized for use with Logitech
Collaboration Program members such as BlueJeans and Zoom, ensuring
a superior meeting experience when using these video
applications.
Each ConferenceCam Kit includes a market-leading Logitech
ConferenceCam for best-in-class video conferencing with HD 1080p
video and professional audio, enabling everyone in the meeting room
to clearly see expressions, nonverbal cues and movements.
The small form factor Intel NUC provides an ideal combination of
performance and reliability to run HD video conferencing with
support for multiple HD and 4K UHD displays. Paired with the Intel
Unite application, the solution enables wireless content sharing on
a PC or Mac® and delivers a clean and elegant meeting room
configuration.
Also included is Iluminari Quicklaunch™ SE, a fully configurable
and simple user interface that brings appliance-like ease of use to
the meeting room with the flexibility and familiarity of
collaboration applications. Quicklaunch™ SE helps ensure a
consistent experience across the full enterprise, minimizing the
need for user training and IT support.
Microsoft Windows® 10 Pro provides a familiar user experience
and helps IT departments manage devices, apps, and identities in a
way that scales up or down with business needs. It also offers
enterprise-grade security features to help protect critical
information.
The Logitech® Wireless Touch Keyboard K400 Plus has a wireless
range of up to 33 feet and an integrated touchpad that makes it
easy to initiate a video conference from across the room.
The Logitech ConferenceCam Kit can be seen in public for the
first time at Enterprise Connect, March 7-9, in booth #629.
Pricing and Availability
The Logitech ConferenceCam Kit is expected to be available in
the U.S. in April at an estimated starting price of $1599. For more

1-800-308-8666 or visit the Logitech blog.
