With Jabra PanaCast intelligent video conferencing cameras, users can manage meeting room occupancy levels and control room occupancy levels from a desktop, smartphone or meeting room display panel to optimise the use of office space.
The Jabra PanaCast and PanaCast 50’s unique 180-degree field-of-view covers the whole room and generates anonymous room occupancy data.

Rooms can also be auto-booked by simply walking in.

UMAenables users to manage meeting-room and desk utilisation and device management of audio-visual devices, all from a single pane of glass.

The combined value-proposition of UMA and Jabra allows customers to realise an improved return on their technology investments through business intelligence and simpler mechanisms to support and maintain their meeting room technology. Users can check Jabra device status, remotely diagnose and fix issues, and push software updates.
Nigel Dunn, Managing Director, EMEA North at Jabra says, “We are thrilled to be teaming up with UMA to deliver a new standard in meeting room solutions for hybrid working. Jabra PanaCast’s data-driven insights and analytics gives a real-time view of how the workplace is being used, enabling companies to improve efficiency and maximise their real estate. It’s now time to start thinking about future-proofing offices and taking conferencing and the meeting booking experience to the next level.”
