MeetingEye 500

A multi-camera mini-PC for Zoom Rooms on Android

The Yealink MeetingEye 500 is a Mini-PC that runs the Zoom Rooms system on Android and coordinates several cameras, displays and microphones within one meeting space. It acts as the processing hub of the room, keeping the meeting experience native to the Zoom Rooms platform. The manufacturer intends it for business customers, and it is sold through authorised B2B partners such as SmartRooms Qatar.

Two 4K outputs for dual-screen collaboration

The unit has two HDMI outputs, and both support 4K display. Participants can present different content on two screens at once and choose the display layout they prefer. This helps when one screen shows a remote team while the other shows a slide deck, drawing or spreadsheet. Video runs at 4Kp30 UHD, and content sharing is supported. The manufacturer's overview also mentions three screens, so confirm your planned screen count with the SmartRooms Qatar team before ordering.

Camera and microphone pairing

The MeetingEye 500 works with the Yealink 36x hybrid zoom 4K UHD PTZ camera and with third-party cameras, so you can build the room around equipment you already own or around a new Yealink camera. Combined with the microphone array, each microphone reaches 10 ft (3 m) with a 360° voice pickup range, which suits a round table where people sit at different distances from the centre. The unit is also compatible with third-party professional audio, useful where a room already has a sound system that must stay in place.

Mounting and cabling choices

The detachable design gives you four placements: hanging on a wall, sitting on a table, under a table or on a cabinet. A wall position keeps desks clear in a crowded training room, while an under-table or cabinet position suits a boardroom where equipment should stay out of sight.

The VCH interface carries data transmission, signal control and power through one multi-function network cable, which simplifies room cable management. The manufacturer also says this reduces deployment costs. In USB mode, the unit acts as PC audio and video peripherals, which is useful when a laptop is used alongside the room system.

Planning an installation in Qatar

A government authority in Doha upgrading a boardroom in West Bay might pair this unit with a 4K display and a PTZ camera, so that delegations abroad see the same material as the people in the room. A university training centre in Education City could equip several seminar rooms with the same configuration, so staff learn one system. A private school in Al Wakrah fitting out a staff meeting room in a new building could choose the under-table option to keep the desk clear.

• Confirm the room size, camera model, number of screens and microphone layout.
• Check the operating environment. The source data gives no operating temperature range, and Qatar summers can exceed 45°C, so confirm placement before installing.
• Plan the network cable route from the room position to the unit.
