ClearOne Conference Controller

The ClearOne Conference Controller is a purpose-built, 10-inch touch-screen device designed to centralize and simplify control of ClearOne’s CONVERGE Pro 2 audio conferencing systems and COLLABORATE Live video collaboration systems. Engineered for modern meeting rooms—from compact huddle spaces to immersive boardrooms—this controller brings intuitive, at-a-glance management of VoIP and web-conferencing audio and video directly to the table. With its responsive UI, streamlined setup, and durable enterprise-grade design, it helps teams collaborate faster, make better decisions, and keep meetings moving with less friction.

• 1) Intuitive 10-inch touch experience: A large, responsive capacitive touch screen delivers clear, tactile feedback for calls, volume, mute, camera controls, and layout adjustments. The interface presents essential meeting controls in context, so users can switch from a conference call to a video session, adjust audio routing, or tweak camera framing with minimal taps. With multi-gesture support and readable on-screen prompts, even non-technical users can operate complex conferencing setups confidently, reducing training time and boosting meeting efficiency.
• 2) Seamless integration with ClearOne ecosystems: Specifically engineered to work with CONVERGE Pro 2 audio conferencing systems and COLLABORATE Live video collaboration systems, the controller acts as a single pane of control for both audio and video. Start or join VoIP or web-conferencing sessions with a single touch, manage mute and volume for participants, and route audio streams across devices without juggling multiple remotes or software panes. This unified control minimizes setup errors and ensures consistent performance across every meeting type.
• 3) Unified room control for superior collaboration: Beyond basic dialing, the device centralizes essential room functions—call controls, audio level management, camera pan/tilt, layout switching, and conferencing presets—so teams can tailor the space to the task. Create dedicated profiles for different meeting formats (stand-up, training, large presentations), enable fast-access presets for sharp focus and collaboration, and monitor room status at a glance to keep meetings on track.
• 4) Flexible connectivity and deployment options: Designed for practical room installations, the controller supports robust network connectivity (Ethernet) and USB interfaces for peripheral integration, with optional Power over Ethernet (PoE) to simplify wiring and reduce clutter. Its versatile mounting options—tabletop, wall-mount, or optional accessories—let you deploy in a way that suits your room layout and IT standards, while maintaining a clean, professional appearance.
• 5) Productivity-enhancing features and reliability: The device improves meeting productivity by providing quick access to essential controls, status indicators, and configurable buttons that can be tailored to your organization’s workflows. Its durable build and ClearOne engineering deliver dependable performance for daily use, long sessions, and hybrid meetings, helping teams stay focused on content rather than technology. IT-friendly features such as remote management readiness and straightforward firmware updates further ensure the controller remains secure and up to date.
