Williams AV BLUE POD Solo Audio Conferencing System with B-WAP Bluetooth Wireless Access Point (Discontinued)

Williams AV BLUE POD Solo
Audio Conferencing System with B-WAP Bluetooth Wireless Access Point

Easily add Bluetooth audio to your professional audio systems with the BluePOD Solo Bluetooth audio conferencing system. BluePOD Solo features a patent-pending Bluetooth Wireless Access Point (B-WAP) that provides up to a 50-foot radius of coverage when connecting your Bluetooth devices to your room’s audio system. The B-WAP ensures a strong and smooth connection.

Any Bluetooth device can connect to your device by simply tapping the Bluetooth connect button on your device; no special software is needed. Adjusting the volume, muting and connecting incoming and outgoing calls are all done on your device, just like you do it now. And all of your contacts and phone numbers are available to use.

While consumer Bluetooth devices are designed to automatically pair with one another once bonded, the BluePOD Solo is specifically designed not to auto-pair and work instead in a more corporate/enterprise environment where the decision to pair your device with the room’s system is a conscious choice. While consumer Bluetooth devices stay paired until they are out of range, BluePOD automatically disconnects the user when the audio/video conference call is completed. This frees up the system for the next user and helps to avoid accidental connections during private calls.

BluePOD Solo is based on the aptX HD codec. The aptX HD is a high-definition version of the original aptX codec developed by Qualcomm. The aptX HD codec significantly improves audio quality by increasing bandwidth of the Bluetooth stream and reducing compression. The end result is excellent professional audio quality with low latency and very little background noise.

Integrators can add BluePOD Solo into their audio system by using the standard audio interface that connects the line-in/line-out from their audio mixer into the BluePOD Solo. A Dante interface allows integration of the BluePOD Solo into their audio networking solutions. The BluePOD Solo to B-WAP interface is a simple CAT5 or CAT6 cable system that provides power, control and audio back to the BluePOD interface box for connecting to the audio system.
