Sennheiser's video conferencing solution 'TC Bar' earns Zoom and Teams certifications

2024.07.31. The Fair Economy — German audio solutions company Sennheiser recently announced that its conference solution, the "TC Bar (TeamConnect Bar)," has earned certification from both Zoom's "Zoom Rooms" and Microsoft's "Teams Rooms," two leading global video conferencing platforms.

According to Sennheiser, the TC Bar is an all-in-one video conferencing system that includes both a camera and a microphone, making it suitable for various environments ranging from small meeting rooms to large lecture halls. With the Zoom Rooms and Teams Rooms certifications, participants can now use high-quality video conferencing solutions more smoothly in remote settings.

The TC Bar supports 4K UHD resolution and "High Dynamic Range (HDR)" technology to provide bright, clear image quality. Its microphone features "automatic beamforming technology" that accurately tracks the speaker's voice.

It also incorporates artificial intelligence (AI) technology to offer features such as "Auto Framing," which automatically recognizes attendees' faces and movements to detect their positions; "Person Tiling," which divides up to 10 participants into a layout; and "Noise Control," which allows users to preset the level of noise suppression according to their preferences.

"The TC Bar has now been certified by Zoom Rooms and MS Teams Rooms, solutions from leading global conferencing platforms," said Charlie Jones, Sennheiser's Global Alliance Partnership Manager. "Through its superior audio and video quality, the TC Bar enhances the overall meeting experience and supports flexible, stable meeting solutions in diverse hybrid work environments."

"As recognition grows that audio clarity is an essential element for immersive meetings, we are pleased that Sennheiser's TC Bar has joined the Teams ecosystem," said Albert Kooiman, Senior Director of Partner Engineering and Certification at Microsoft Teams. "The TC Bar, which embodies Sennheiser's legacy of high-quality audio over more than 80 years, integrates seamlessly with Teams to enhance the meeting experience."
