Yealink has just introduced a new line of products that will change the way you view your meeting rooms: the BYOD series.
The Yealink BYOD product line for video conferencing was curated for those looking for an innovative solution for their conference and meeting rooms. With an all-in-one video bar or complete kits for rooms of all sizes, you’ll be sure to find something that fits your needs in the simple to use BYOD device product line from Yealink:
- Yealink UVC30-CP900-BYOD Kit for Small Rooms
- Yealink UVC40-BYOD Video Bar
- Yealink UVC84-BYOD-050 Kit for Medium Rooms
- Yealink UVC84-BYOD-210 Kit for Large Rooms
Plug-and-play compatibility with almost any video conferencing service makes these systems unlike anything Yealink has done in the past, allowing you to get your meeting up and running quickly without needing to figure out whose device will work with what service.
What does BYOD mean?
BYOD stands for Bring Your Own Device.
In the past, you had to confirm your video conferencing equipment was compatible with the video conferencing service you wanted to use it with. For example, if you wanted to use your video conferencing devices with Microsoft Teams, you’d have to first make sure it was compatible and, if necessary, purchase additional licenses.
Yealink has changed the game by making it possible to have a business class audio and video solution that’s incredibly easy to connect to the various VCaaS (Video Conferencing as a Service) platforms.
With the BYOD kits for video conferencing from Yealink, you can stop wasting time trying to connect your video conferencing equipment to join a meeting and enjoy a plug-and-play solution for your conference room.
How do you connect a Yealink BYOD Kit?
The BYOD kits come with a camera, microphone and speaker. Some come with a BYOD Box hub. To setup the system, you simply connect the devices to a display and a computer. The devices will be recognized as USB peripherals, which you can then select in whatever video conferencing platform you’re using.
Here’s an example setup for the UVC30 system taken from its quick start guide:

Yealink UVC84-BYOD-210 Kit for Large Rooms
Finally, we have Yealink’s solution for large conferencing rooms: UVC84-BYOD-210. This kit includes a UVC84 Camera, MSpeaker II Soundbar and two VCM34 microphone arrays. The UVC84 provides extraordinary video, MSpeaker lets everyone hear what people are saying and the VCM34s give you 360° coverage for speaker. Put together, the kit is an excellent solution for professional video conferencing.
Why would I choose UVC84-210-BYOD instead of UVC84-050-BYOD?
Although Yealink suggests the UVC84-210 kit is for large rooms and the UVC84-050 is for medium rooms, it doesn’t mean you cannot use UVC84-210 for medium rooms.
It comes with devices such as the MSpeaker II soundbar and VCM34 microphone arrays that provide improved audio quality and voice pickup coverage, while still being as easy to use and easy to setup. If you’re looking for professional grade audio and video conferencing solution with a variety of compatibility options to cloud services, then the UVC210 is a great option.
