Cisco Systems, Inc. CS-BAR-T-K9 conferencing device

Cisco Webex Room Bar device

The Cisco Webex Room Bar is an all-in-one video conferencing device built for small to medium meeting rooms. It combines a camera, microphones and speakers in a single 21 in wide bar that mounts above or below a display. The unit connects to the network over Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n/ac. It runs on AC 100-240 V power and includes HDMI and DisplayPort video connections.

Teams needing simple USB-free deployment

IT teams who want a native Webex endpoint without attaching a separate PC will find the Room Bar fits huddle rooms and focus spaces. Buyers who require a modular codec with interchangeable cameras or external microphone pods should look at larger conference systems. The fixed form factor also limits placement options for very wide rooms or dual-screen setups.

Video and audio capacity for typical huddle spaces

The integrated 4-microphone array with beamforming covers participants seated around a standard table. Supported codecs include H.263, H.264, H.239, G.711, G.722, G.729, G.722.1, AAC-LD and Opus for flexible interoperability. Very large rooms or noisy open-plan areas may exceed the pickup range and require additional audio hardware. The 90-day manufacturer warranty covers the initial deployment period.
