What is it?
The Cisco CS-KIT-K9 Spark Room Kit is a video conferencing solution that includes camera, codec, speakers, and microphones integrated into one device.
It is meant for fairly smallish rooms that seat up to 7 people or so.
We like it because:
- It has excellent functionality and experience.
- Is priced to scale out to mulitple rooms.
- Like above, it is also easy to scale out to multiple areas.
- It has speaker-tracking capabilities in smaller rooms.
Benefits:
- Integrated cameras have intelligent view capabilities, like automatic framing and speaker tracking.
- Dual screens, dual content sources, wireless sharing, and 4K content to make presentations a little more exciting
- People count for usage metrics and resource allocation
- Built for both cloud and on-premises deployment
