Overview

The Biamp Apprimo Touch 8i is an 8-inch black touch control panel for running meeting rooms, classrooms and hospitality spaces. Its 1280x800 capacitive display reaches 350 nits, a proximity sensor wakes it on approach, and one PoE cable (IEEE 802.3at Class 3, 15W) carries both power and data. It suits AV integrators and facilities teams in Qatar who want one control point for AV, lighting and shades.

What the Apprimo Touch 8i is

The Biamp Apprimo Touch 8i is a touch panel that gives people one place to run a room. Its 8-inch capacitive LCD runs at 1280x800 and reaches a maximum brightness of 350 nits. The black finish and scratch-resistant glass keep the surface clear in rooms where many people tap the screen every day.

Specifications that shape the installation

  • Power: PoE to IEEE 802.3at Class 3, rated at 15W, so one CAT5e or CAT6 cable carries power and control.
  • Size and weight: 130 mm high, 196 mm wide, 38 mm deep and 0.45 kg.
  • Sensors: A proximity sensor wakes the display as someone approaches, and an ambient light sensor adjusts brightness.
  • Indicators: Three-colour LED indicators on the rear panel.
  • Compliance: CE marked and compliant with the RoHS Directive.

Programming and control

Integrators build the interface in Project Designer, starting from the included templates and themes or creating a layout from scratch. The panel also supports Workplace Control, a software-based approach that the manufacturer positions for both simple rooms and complex systems. The customisable interface can manage AV equipment, lighting, shades and other connected technologies, so the room is run from one screen rather than several remotes.

Where it fits in Qatar

In a boardroom in West Bay or Msheireb, a panel on the table or beside the door lets staff start a meeting, dim the lights and lower the shades without searching for a remote. In a school in Al Wakrah or Education City, a tabletop mount on a lectern gives a teacher one control point for the projector, audio and display sources. In a hotel meeting room in Lusail, the layout can be adjusted between events from the software, keeping the room ready for the next booking.

What to plan before ordering

Confirm that the network switch provides 802.3at Class 3 PoE to each panel, because the panel draws its power over the data cable. Install it indoors in an air-conditioned room. The rated ambient operating range is 0 to 40°C, while outdoor temperatures in Qatar's summer often pass 45°C. Keep it away from direct sunlight and windows, where glare and heat can affect the display. For wall mounting, check the single-gang back box format (US, EU or DK) before installation. SmartRooms Qatar offers free site surveys to confirm height, cable route and box format. Request a quote and our team will send a mounting and cabling plan for your room.

Questions about Apprimo Touch 8i

Where does the Apprimo Touch 8i suit best in a Qatari office?
It suits a boardroom or meeting room where one panel should control the AV system, lighting and shades. In a ministry or corporate office in West Bay or Msheireb, a desk-mounted unit lets staff start a meeting and adjust the room without a separate remote. Its 8-inch screen is sized for close, hands-on use rather than for viewing content from across a large hall.
Which classroom or training room suits this panel?
A classroom in Education City or a private school in Al Wakrah fitting out new teaching spaces can place it on a lectern or podium using the included tabletop mount. Teachers get one screen for the projector, audio and display sources, and the proximity sensor wakes it as they approach. For a large lecture hall, a bigger panel would usually be the better choice.
Can it work in hotel meeting rooms in Lusail?
Yes, for hotel and serviced apartment meeting rooms in Lusail or The Pearl where staff need a simple way to switch a room between setups. Templates and themes in Project Designer let the hotel match the screen to its own corporate branding. The rated operating range is 0 to 40°C, so the panel belongs in a conditioned meeting room rather than an exposed lobby or entrance.
Is it suitable for a clinic or hospital meeting room in Al Rayyan?
A clinic or hospital in Al Rayyan could use it in a consultation or staff meeting room to control a display and lighting from one screen. The scratch-resistant glass helps the surface keep its finish in busy rooms. Before ordering, check with the SmartRooms Qatar team that the wall position, cleaning routine and room climate suit the panel's stated limits.
Could it suit an energy company briefing room at Mesaieed or Ras Laffan?
It can suit an air-conditioned briefing or meeting room, but the environment needs checking first. The 0 to 40°C operating range and 10 to 90 per cent non-condensing humidity apply indoors, and industrial sites near Mesaieed can have dust and heat. The panel is a room control interface for AV, lighting and shades, so it fits meeting spaces rather than plant floors.
How is the Apprimo Touch 8i powered?
It is powered over PoE to IEEE 802.3at Class 3, rated at 15W. A single CAT5e or CAT6 cable carries both power and data, so the installation does not need a separate power adapter at the panel. Your network must supply a PoE source that meets that standard. Confirm the switch port and cable route with SmartRooms Qatar before installation.
How is the panel mounted?
It includes a tabletop mount for desks, lecterns and podiums. For a wall-mounted setup, it fits standard single-gang back boxes in US, EU and DK formats, so check the box type in advance. Free site surveys from SmartRooms Qatar confirm the height, cable route and box format before anyone drills into a wall. The panel measures 130 mm high and 196 mm wide.
What about heat, given Qatar's summer temperatures?
The rated ambient operating range is 0 to 40°C. Qatar's summer regularly exceeds 45°C outdoors, so install the panel inside an air-conditioned room and keep it away from windows and direct sunlight. Humidity should stay between 10 and 90 per cent, non-condensing. If the space is not air-conditioned or sits near a dust-prone opening, confirm the site with the SmartRooms Qatar team before ordering.
Which software is used to program the interface?
Integrators use Project Designer, which includes several UI templates and themes, or they build custom layouts that match an organisation's requirements. The panel also supports Workplace Control, a software-based control solution. Your integrator designs the layout, and SmartRooms Qatar can coordinate professional installation once the design is agreed.
Can it control lighting and shades?
The manufacturer describes the customisable interface as managing AV systems, lighting, shades and other connected technologies. Whether a particular lighting or shade system can be controlled depends on your room's integration and the protocols it uses. Ask your integrator to confirm the devices in the room before ordering, so the layout matches what you need.
What warranty comes with the Apprimo Touch 8i?
The Apprimo Touch 8i is backed by a 5-year manufacturer warranty. SmartRooms Qatar supplies the panel, delivers it to all eight municipalities of Qatar, and can arrange professional installation. Request a quote to confirm the warranty details, the included tabletop mount and the installation scope for your site.
How do schools or offices order several units together?
Organisations can order several panels against a purchase order (LPO) or through a government tender, including Monaqasat. Send the room list and the number of panels, and the SmartRooms Qatar team will usually send a quotation within one working day, often after a free site survey. Payment can be made by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order.
