New Poly G7500 puts content at the centre of your video conferencing experience

Poly G7500 is a solution that's been touted as the world’s first end-to-end UHD 4k codec and wireless presentation in one box.

Johannesburg, 11 Sep 2019

Not only are we spending more time in meetings than just a few years ago, we’re also collaborating in different ways from before with the rise of remote workers, open office floor plans and increasingly global workforces. All these factors are generating demand for video conferencing solutions that make meetings more productive and are as real as face-to-face.

Earlier this year, Poly unveiled a new solution with these factors in mind: simplicity, clarity and limitless possibility. Your focus stays on the meeting, while the technology steps quietly into the background.

Today, Kathea is thrilled to announce that this revolutionary new solution, which is said to be the world’s first end-to-end UHD 4k codec and wireless presentation in one box, is headed to SA and is set to land before the end of the year.

Three collaboration technologies in one

Poly G7500 offers three collaboration technologies in one. This dynamic system is a premium video conferencing tool, allows wireless content-sharing from any device and allows digital whiteboarding. All three are offered to users using the same interface, which creates a safe environment for the user.

Premium video conferencing solution

The G7500 helps teams share ideas and express themselves clearly with rich 4k Ultra HD visuals and detailed audio that allow users to feel like they’re together in the same room. Increasing detail enhances the natural feeling of the conversation and leads to deeper collaboration.

Wireless content-sharing device

The G7500 places 4k content and collaboration at the centre of the experience with a customisable interface for both touch and non-touch displays, as well as secure and guest network capabilities for all connected devices, according to Poly.

Digital whiteboard

The G7500 also features infinite whiteboarding, where users can write over content, use the screen as a whiteboard space, and capture for later use. By combining video conferencing and content-sharing in one solution, the G7500 empowers multiple attendees to share content, from any device, to make meetings more productive.

New G7500 bundles from poly

Consumers now have the option to purchase the Poly G7500 Video Conferencing Codec by itself or choose from three bundle options designed for small, medium and large meeting rooms. Poly has also released two new microphone choices: Poly IP Tabletop Microphone and Poly IP Ceiling Microphone.
