Poly Studio X30 – All-In-One Video Bar with TC8 (Zoom Rooms)

Product Overview

The Poly Studio X30 with TC8 Zoom Rooms kit (part number 83Z46AA#ABA) equips a huddle or small conference room with a native Zoom Rooms appliance and a dedicated tabletop controller in one order. Zoom Rooms runs on the X30 bar itself, so the room needs no mini PC, no NUC image to maintain, and no separate USB peripheral chain — just the bar, the display, and the TC8 console on the table. The X30 covers rooms of roughly 15 ft. by 10 ft. with a 4K camera, four MEMS microphones, and Poly DirectorAI framing. Specify this kit when standardizing a floor of small Zoom rooms that all need scheduled one-touch join.

Product Description

A Zoom Rooms deployment built on appliance hardware removes the largest recurring cost in small-room video: the managed PC. Because the X30 runs Zoom Rooms natively, the IT team patches and monitors one device class through Poly Lens and the Zoom admin portal instead of maintaining a Windows or macOS endpoint per room. The camera delivers 4K UltraHD capture at up to 3840 x 2160 with a 110-degree horizontal field of view (121 degrees diagonal) and 5x digital zoom, running 5–60 fps and capturing up to 4K resolution at 15 fps in call. DirectorAI smart camera technology switches between people framing, group framing, and speaker framing automatically, and the DirectorAI perimeter setting keeps tracking inside the room boundary.

Audio is handled by four MEMS microphones and an acoustic-chamber speaker rated at 80 dB sensitivity (1 W/1 m), with Poly NoiseBlockAI and Acoustic Fence suppressing keyboard noise and voices carrying in from outside the room. Connectivity suits a single-display huddle room: one HDMI 1.4 input, one HDMI 1.4 output, one USB Type-C and one USB Type-A at 5 Gbps, and a 10/100/1G RJ-45 port with IPv4, IPv6, and Auto-MDIX. Standards-based H.323 and SIP up to 6 Mbps remains available in Poly App video mode for organizations that also run an on-premises platform, with AES 128-bit and 256-bit encryption and H.235.6 support.

The kit ships with the Studio X30, TC8 controller, power supply, HDMI cable, Ethernet cable, monitor clamp, and privacy cover. The TC8 is an 8-inch touch console that draws power and data over a single cable, which keeps the table free of a second power run. If a room later needs a larger control surface for scheduling and room signage, the Poly TC10 10.1-inch touch controller is the step up, and spare or replacement consoles are available as the standalone Poly TC8 touch controller. For wall or VESA installs, use the Poly Studio X30/X32/V12 VESA and Wall Mount.

Key Features

• Native Zoom Rooms Appliance — Runs Zoom Rooms on the video bar itself, so no room PC has to be imaged, patched, or replaced on a refresh cycle.
• Bar and Controller in One Kit — Ships the X30 and the Poly TC8 console together so a complete small Zoom room lands on a single line item.
• 8-Inch TC8 Touch Console — Provides scheduled one-touch join and in-room call control over a single cable carrying power and data.
• 4K UltraHD Capture — Delivers up to 3840 x 2160 video with a 110-degree horizontal field of view for a full view of a small conference table.
• Poly DirectorAI Smart Camera — People, group, and speaker framing follow the conversation without anyone touching a camera preset.
• DirectorAI Perimeter — Confines tracking to the room so movement past a glass wall does not become the active shot.
• NoiseBlockAI and Acoustic Fence — Filter keyboard noise and outside conversation so the far end hears the meeting rather than the office.
• Poly Lens Management — Gives IT centralized deployment, monitoring, and analytics across a fleet of small rooms.
• Fleet-Friendly Installation — Monitor clamp, HDMI cable, Ethernet cable, and power supply in the box make each room a repeatable single-pass install.

Typical Applications

• Huddle room
• Conference room
• Commercial meeting space
• Training room

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this kit run Zoom Rooms without a room PC?
Yes. Zoom Rooms runs as a cloud video app on the Studio X30 itself, so the room does not need a mini PC or NUC. The TC8 console on the table acts as the Zoom Rooms controller.

What is included in part number 83Z46AA#ABA?
The kit includes the Studio X30 video bar, the Poly TC8 touch controller, power supply, HDMI cable, Ethernet cable, monitor clamp, and privacy cover.

How large a room does the X30 cover?
HP Poly specifies the X30 for huddle or small rooms of approximately 15 ft. by 10 ft. Medium rooms of roughly 20 ft. by 15 ft. should be specified with a Studio X50 or the newer Studio X52.

Can the same hardware be repurposed to another platform later?
The X30 supports built-in cloud video apps as well as standards-based H.323 and SIP calling up to 6 Mbps in Poly App video mode, so a room can be moved to a different service without replacing hardware. Reprovisioning is handled through Poly Lens.

How is the TC8 cabled at the conference table?
The TC8 is wired and carries power and data on a single cable, so the table needs one run rather than a network drop plus a power supply. Account for that cable path when specifying grommets or table cutouts.

How does the kit integrate with existing network infrastructure?
A single 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 connection supports IPv4 and IPv6 with Auto-MDIX, and the system supports AES 128-bit and 256-bit encryption with H.235.6. Poly Lens provides centralized deployment, monitoring, and analytics across a fleet of rooms.

What warranty and support are included?
The kit carries the Poly standard one-year limited warranty. Poly+ service agreements covering the Studio X30 with TC8 are available separately for extended coverage, advance hardware replacement, and technical support.
