In October, Yamaha UC confirmed that the YVC-1000 USB and Bluetooth speakerphone had been certified for Zoom; Yamaha’s flagship solution and Zoom Rooms will operate as one simple and unified bundle. Suited for medium and large conference spaces and multipurpose meeting rooms, the Yamaha YVC-1000 USB and Bluetooth audio solution uniquely features a separate intelligent microphone and full-range speaker unit that can be placed close to a display for naturally blended audio and video to enable full participant comprehension. The YVC-1000 can daisy-chain up to five distinct microphones capturing up to 40 people and flexibly fits to various table layouts. It is capable of being paired with two external speakers and other microphone systems via an input jack for even more scalability in larger meeting rooms. This easy-to-use, plug-and-play scalable design makes it a cost-effective and flexible alternative to installed audio solutions for large conference rooms. The YVC-1000 firmware that is compatible with Zoom Rooms will be provided for free in January 2020 at the Yamaha website (uc.yamaha.com).
