Cisco Reinvents Meeting Tech with Powerful New AI Devices
Cisco Brings Serious AI Muscle to Meeting Rooms
At Europe's premier tech showcase ISE, Cisco made waves by introducing a suite of collaboration devices that do far more than just host video calls. These aren't your average conference room gadgets - they're powerful edge computing nodes packed with AI capabilities.
Espen Loberg, Cisco's Collaboration VP, describes them as "the final bridge between artificial intelligence and physical workspaces." Unlike cloud-dependent solutions, these devices process sensitive data locally while delivering enterprise-grade security.
The Power Players
Room Kit Pro G2 steals the show with its Nvidia Jetson-powered brain. Imagine:
- Handling seven simultaneous 4K camera feeds
- Supporting cutting-edge AV-over-IP technology
- Offering Microsoft Teams certification out of the box
The Desk Pro G2 transforms personal workspaces with:
- Dual 48MP cameras capturing every detail
- A stunning 27" interactive 4K display
- Professional-grade audio for crystal-clear calls
For frontline workers, the Wireless Phone 9821 brings:
- Military-grade durability for tough environments
- Wi-Fi 6E connectivity for lag-free communication
- Built-in Agentic AI assistance on demand
The real game-changer? Cisco's upcoming Control Hub integration will let IT managers query device health and room usage stats using plain English through tools like Copilot or ChatGPT.
The Room Kit Pro G2 and Wireless Phone hit shelves in Q2 2026 - just in time for companies planning their next tech refresh cycles.
