The Poly Studio USB video bar is an all-in-one video and audio hub for small rooms.
Poly Studio Overview
The Poly Studio USB video bar is a high-quality camera and speakerphone system that integrates an
auto-framing camera, stereo microphones, and stereo speakers.
Poly Studio works with applications that support standard USB peripherals, such as Polycom
RealPresence Desktop, Microsoft Skype for Business, Microsoft Teams, Zoom, and BlueJeans. As a USB
camera and speakerphone, you can use the Poly Studio USB video bar for audio or video conferencing
and as a speaker for your local devices.
You can also use Poly Studio as a Bluetooth device that supports audio calls and streaming music
playback from a mobile device.
You can connect the Poly Studio USB video bar to either a permanently installed PC USB host in the
room or to a laptop that you bring to the room. In all configurations, you primarily connect through USB,
with an optional Bluetooth connection.
If you're the administrator of the Poly Studio USB video bar, download Polycom Companion for advanced
setup options, such as connecting Poly Studio to your Wi-Fi. You can manage the Poly Studio USB video
bar from Polycom Device Management Services for Enterprises (PDMS-E) or Polycom RealPresence
Resource Manager via Wi-Fi connectivity. See the
about these products.
Highlights of the Poly Studio USB video bar include the following:
▪ High-fidelity stereo microphones that pick up sound within 3.66 m (12 ft), together with spatial audio
to imitate life-like presence and clarity. Poly Studio also supports Polycom Acoustic Fence with
Beam Shaping that enables video conferencing in open workspaces by capturing only the voices
within a defined zone. The Polycom NoiseBlock feature listens for times when sound is occurring
but no one is talking and automatically mutes your microphone until you speak.
▪ Ultra-wide 120-degree field of view that captures 4K UHD video.
▪ Automatic speaker-tracking technology that zooms in on the person who's talking without using a
remote control or camera presets. When there's no active speaker, the group frame function
automatically frames all conference participants as a group.
