Poly Studio X30 – All-In-One Video Bar with TC8 (TAA Compliant)

Product Overview

The TAA compliant Poly Studio X30 with TC8 (part number 842V4AA#ABA) is the federal procurement build of the X30 huddle room video bar, shipped as a kit with the Poly TC8 tabletop touch controller. It targets government spaces and federal contractors where Trade Agreements Act sourcing is a condition of award and the room still needs a single-device huddle room system rather than a modular codec stack. The X30 bar covers small rooms of roughly 15 ft. by 10 ft. with a 4K camera, four MEMS microphones, and built-in cloud video apps, while the TC8 gives the room an 8-inch one-touch join surface on a single PoE cable. Buy this SKU when the TAA line item and the touch controller both have to appear on the same purchase order.

Product Description

Federal and federal-adjacent deployments carry two constraints that commercial rooms do not: the hardware has to satisfy TAA country-of-origin rules, and the room control surface usually has to be a dedicated appliance rather than a shared tablet. This kit answers both. The X30 bar itself is functionally the same huddle room appliance as the commercial 83Z45AA build, with a 110-degree horizontal field of view (121 degrees diagonal), 5x digital zoom, and a 5–60 fps sensor that captures up to 4K resolution at 15 fps in call. Poly DirectorAI handles people framing, group framing, and speaker framing, and the DirectorAI perimeter setting confines tracking to the room so hallway movement outside a glass wall does not pull the shot.

Audio uses four MEMS microphones and an acoustic-chamber speaker rated at 80 dB sensitivity (1 W/1 m), with Poly NoiseBlockAI and Acoustic Fence filtering keyboard noise and conversations from outside the room. Security posture is documented for review: AES 128-bit and 256-bit encryption, H.235.6 support, and TLS. The bar connects over a single 10/100/1G RJ-45 with IPv4, IPv6, and Auto-MDIX, and offers one HDMI 1.4 input, one HDMI 1.4 output, one USB Type-C, and one USB Type-A at 5 Gbps. Standards-based H.323 and SIP calling up to 6 Mbps in Poly App video mode lets the room register to an existing on-premises call platform where a cloud service is not authorized.

The included Poly TC8 is an 8-inch high-resolution touch console measuring 8.1 x 3.1 x 4.8 in. and weighing 28.6 oz., powered and networked over a single wired connection so the tabletop stays free of a separate power brick. Rooms that later need a spare or replacement control surface can source the TAA compliant Poly TC8 touch controller on its own. Wall or VESA installation of the bar uses the Poly Studio X30/X32/V12 VESA and Wall Mount, and credenza placement uses the Poly Studio X30/X32/V12 Table Stand. Note that if the room will run Zoom or Microsoft Teams as its platform, Poly recommends the platform-specific kit part numbers rather than the generic bundle.

Key Features

• TAA Compliant Build — Meets Trade Agreements Act sourcing requirements so the kit can be placed on federal and GSA-driven purchase orders.
• Video Bar and Touch Controller Kit — Ships the X30 bar and the Poly TC8 console together, so a complete huddle room lands on one line item.
• 8-Inch Poly TC8 Console — Gives the room a dedicated one-touch join surface with a single cable carrying both power and data.
• 4K Camera with 110-Degree Horizontal Coverage — Frames a full small-room table from a display-mounted position without a separate PTZ camera.
• Poly DirectorAI Framing — People, group, and speaker framing plus a configurable perimeter keep the camera on the meeting and off the corridor.
• Four MEMS Microphones with NoiseBlockAI — Capture voices across the table while filtering keyboard noise and conversations from outside the room.
• Documented Encryption — AES 128-bit and 256-bit encryption with H.235.6 support gives security teams verifiable specifications for accreditation.
• Standards-Based SIP and H.323 — Registers to an existing on-premises call platform at up to 6 Mbps where cloud video services are not authorized.
• No Room PC Required — Built-in cloud video apps run on the bar itself, removing a managed Windows endpoint from every small room.

Typical Applications

• Government space
• Huddle room
• Conference room
• Commercial meeting space

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What does TAA compliant mean for this Poly Studio X30 kit?
TAA compliance refers to Trade Agreements Act country-of-origin requirements that apply to many U.S. federal purchases. Part number 842V4AA#ABA is the build HP Poly designates as TAA compliant, which is why it carries a different part number and price from the commercial 83Z45AA bar.

What is included in the kit?
The kit contains the Poly Studio X30 all-in-one video bar and the Poly TC8 touchscreen console, plus cables, a monitor clamp, and a wall mount. No separate room PC or codec is required.

How is the TC8 controller powered and cabled?
The TC8 is a wired 8-inch console that takes power and data over a single cable, so the tabletop needs one run instead of a network drop plus a power supply. Plan the cable path during table cutout or grommet layout.

Which video platforms can this kit run?
The X30 runs built-in cloud video apps as well as standards-based H.323 and SIP calling up to 6 Mbps in Poly App video mode. If the room will standardize on Zoom or Microsoft Teams, Poly recommends ordering the platform-specific kit part number rather than the generic bundle.

What security specifications are documented for accreditation?
The system supports AES 128-bit and 256-bit encryption, H.235.6, and TLS 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2. Provide these along with the TAA part number when submitting the room for security review.

How does the X30 mount in a government conference room?
A monitor clamp and wall mount ship in the box. For a permanent VESA or wall install, use the Poly Studio X30/X32/V12 VESA and Wall Mount; for credenza or table placement, use the matching table stand. The bar is 17.4 in. wide and 25.7 oz., so it suits most existing display brackets.

What warranty applies to a TAA build?
The kit carries a one-year limited warranty covering parts and labor, the same term as the commercial build. Poly+ service agreements are available separately for extended coverage and advance hardware replacement; contact Creation Networks for federal contract vehicles and quoting.
