Yamaha YVC-1000 Unified Communications Speakerphone Certified by Zoom

HAMAMATSU, Japan Octber 14 2019-Yamaha has introduced its collaboration with Zoom Video Communications, Inc. with the certification of the Yamaha YVC-1000 USB and Bluetooth Speakerphone for Zoom Rooms. The speakerphone has passed Zoom’s stringent certification process to ensure it seamlessly integrates with Zoom software, delivering an easy-to-operate meeting experience with the highest quality audio for everyone on the call.

“With Yamaha’s audio technology and expertise, the YVC-1000 will help us bringing more powerful and scalable collaboration to our customers’ Zoom Rooms experience,” said Eric Yu, Hardware Partnership Manager, Zoom.

Suited for medium and large conference spaces and multipurpose meeting rooms, the Yamaha YVC-1000 USB and Bluetooth audio solution uniquely features a separate intelligent microphone and full-range speaker unit that can be placed close to a display for naturally blended audio and video for full participant comprehension. The YVC-1000 can daisy-chain up to five distinct microphones capturing up to 40 people and flexibly fits to various table layouts. It is capable of being paired with two external speakers and other microphone systems via an input jack for even more scalability in larger meeting rooms. This easy-to-use, scalable design makes it a cost-effective and flexible alternative to installed audio solutions for large conference rooms. Its plug-and-play simplicity and auto-tune setup also allow participants to get started quickly with audio optimized to the room conditions.

The YVC-1000 firmware that is compatible with Zoom Rooms will be provided for free in January 2020 from Yamaha Website.
