Yealink AVHub, hub for multiple cameras solution

Yealink AVHub and AVBridge — two audio and video processors that gather the room's cameras, microphones and speakers and hand them to the host computer over USB. The AVHub is the large processor for a hall with nine cameras, the AVBridge a compact audio box with Dante and a signal extender.

Both models are host peripherals, not standalone systems. The meeting is run by the connected computer or the system's compute unit; the processor gathers the room's image and audio.

Key features

• The AVHub handles up to nine UVC84 or UVC86 cameras in one room

• The AVHub takes up to eight VCM34, VCM35 or VCM38 microphone arrays and up to four MSpeaker II sound bars

• The AVHub connects up to four CM20 or CS10 ceiling units

• Cameras, microphones and speakers connect to the AVHub over a network cable and draw PoE power from it

• Camera layouts are set from the Yealink plugin before and during a Microsoft Teams Rooms meeting

• The AVHub offers Multi-Camera IntelliFocus, Multi-Stream IntelliFrame on the device and a divisible room mode

• The AVBridge has 4×4 Dante channels, the AES67 protocol, a matrix mixer and PEQ for room tuning

• The AVBridge is powered from PoE, drawing 13 W at full load and 8 W with no load

Strengths and limits

Which room

The „Good fit“ box follows the manufacturer's positioning of these models, the „Check first“ and „Consider another model“ boxes come from the atlantis team's practice.

What to check before ordering and deploying

1. Who runs the meeting: the processor is a peripheral, the room needs a host computer or a compute unit

2. Which model: the AVHub for more cameras and powered peripherals, the AVBridge for Dante and signal extension

3. Peripheral count: the AVHub takes up to 9 cameras, 8 microphone arrays, 4 ceiling units and 4 sound bars

4. Power budget: the AVHub gives peripherals 80 W, one CS10 draws 24 W rated

5. Topology: a star with no daisy chain, EEE switched off on the switch

6. Host firmware: the AVBridge with the A40 from 289.320.0.70, with the A50 from 323.320.0.34, with the MeetingBoard Pro from 331.320.0.30

7. Cabling: Cat5e or better on the AVBridge, shielded cable recommended, we confirm the box contents at order time

8. Support: the AMS extended warranty, order it with the device

The atlantis team helps with every point. From system design and the power budget through wiring and configuration to user training and handover of the documentation. On the AVBridge we also confirm the box contents at order time, so you do not promise the customer items that are not in it.

Management and services

• Management follows the platform: in native mode the device is managed from the administration of the platform the room runs.

• Yealink Management Cloud Service (YMCS): cloud management of Yealink devices, that is bulk firmware updates, status monitoring and alerts. Support and the scope of management differ by model and licence, so check both with us for the specific device and system.

atlantis services for partners

atlantis is a direct importer and distributor, and we deliver projects through a network of specialist partners. The services below are therefore offered to the partner, not to the end customer. The partner sets the scope. On one project we take on the whole delivery, on another we cover just the part the partner currently lacks capacity or specialisation for, and on a third the partner manages alone and uses us only for a consultation.

• Before the decision: a consultation on choosing the system and a comparison of the suitable options. The recommendation is built on the size and the character of the room, that is light, acoustics, shape, seating layout and furnishing, then on headcount and on how meetings are actually run there. We offer a live demonstration at our premises, which the partner can bring their customer to, and where it is warranted a test installation, that is a proof of concept.

• Delivery and installation: transport, professional mounting and the work that goes with it, that is cabling, installation material, brackets and room alterations. We handle the installation in full, or support the partner's own team where needed.

• Network readiness and security: we advise on preparing the network for the demands of two-way real-time video, that is throughput, latency and traffic prioritisation, and on securing the communication.

• Configuration and integration: setting up the communication platform and the room account, connecting to the network, and advice on linking and integrating third-party software and hardware.

• Training and documentation: training prepared to match the user's role, that is one thing for room users and another for administrators, plus preparation of both project and user documentation.

• Service and support after the sale: our certified team in Czech, available to the partner throughout the equipment's life. We handle a warranty claim with the manufacturer on the partner's behalf.

Warranty

The standard warranty on Yealink products is 24 months. On top of it we offer two different things that are easy to confuse.

Order codes. AMS for one to three years: AVHub 510102001089, 510102001090 and 510102001091, AVBridge 510102001079, 510102001080 and 510102001081. PrimeCare is ordered by room size class against the whole system, not against the processor on its own, so check the placement with us for the specific project.
