What the iDS-UVC-X28-B does in a meeting room

The Hikvision iDS-UVC-X28-B is a single video bar that houses a camera, a microphone array and a speaker in one unit. Instead of assembling three separate devices, a room gets one bar to mount, one cable to run to a laptop and one remote control to manage it. It is aimed at small and medium meeting rooms, where a clear picture and easy-to-follow speech matter more than a large conference system.

Camera and audio performance that matters

The camera uses a 1/2.8 inch CMOS sensor with about 8 million effective pixels and outputs 4K at 30 frames per second. Its diagonal field angle is 118.8 degrees, and a 3x digital zoom adjusts framing electronically. HDR processing adapts image settings when a room has bright windows or mixed lighting. Automatic framing, speaker tracking and group close-up views keep the active participant or the whole table in shot, and five presets can be saved for fixed seating positions.

Eight microphones provide a 6 m pickup range, so participants seated around a table can be heard without leaning toward a device. Echo cancellation, automatic noise suppression and automatic gain control are supported. The built-in 10 W speaker carries remote voices across the room at a level suitable for a small or medium space.

Connecting laptops, displays and wireless sources

The USB 3.0 Type-C port handles the main laptop connection using UVC and UAC standards, so the bar is recognised as a camera and microphone by common conferencing platforms on Windows 7, 10 and 11 and on Mac OS. A 5 m USB cable is included. Two HDMI outputs support up to 4K at 60 frames per second for displays, and an HDMI input accepts a source up to 4K at 30. A wireless dongle supports screen mirroring up to 4K at 30, and the unit has dual-band Wi-Fi on 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. A gigabit Ethernet port, two USB 2.0 Type-A ports and 3.5 mm line input and output complete the rear connections.

Where it fits in Qatar

• Government and authority meeting rooms in Doha, where a small team needs to join calls with colleagues abroad during the Sunday to Thursday working week.
• Private schools in Al Wakrah or Al Rayyan equipping staff meeting rooms or parent consultation rooms with one compact device rather than a multi-part kit.
• Training centres and university departments in Education City running small seminar rooms where an instructor and remote participants need a clear view and audible speech.

What to plan before installation

The bar weighs 2.49 kg and measures 616 × 145 × 104.23 mm, so it is light enough for a wall bracket and expansion screws, and it has a 1/4-20 tripod hole for desk use. Power comes from a DC 12 V, 2 A adapter, with a typical power draw of 24 W. The packing list includes a European or German plug adapter, so confirm the plug arrangement for BS 1363 sockets before ordering. The rated operating range is 0 to 40 °C, so the bar should be installed in air-conditioned rooms only, away from windows that receive direct afternoon sun. Mounting height and distance to seating affect framing, which is why a free site survey is useful before fixing the bracket.
