AVer Boardroom Video Conferencing UAE — Built to Disappear.
The chairman wants the boardroom sorted before the client visit. It works fine technically — the camera sends a picture, the audio is adequate. What it does not do is look like anyone thought about it. This page is about fixing that properly: three AVer compositions for the executive room, the decisions that separate them — the clean table, the two screens, the guest with a laptop — with bands in AED, and a build that is staged and test-called before the chairman ever walks in. The room that nobody mentions afterwards is the room that worked.
Vector Digital Systems has supplied and installed conferencing systems from Dubai since 2009 and is the authorised AVer distributor for the UAE — boardroom compositions designed at survey, quoted against Dubai stock, and handed over only after a live test call in your actual room.
The room works. That is not the same as the room being right.
Nobody would tell you the boardroom is broken. The camera sends a picture, the audio is adequate, the calls connect. What the room does not do is disappear — and disappearing is the only job a boardroom's camera and audio actually have.
In every other room in the building, a small glitch is nothing: someone mutes, someone adjusts, the meeting moves on. In this room the chairman notices. The visiting client forms an opinion. Someone leans over to fix a cable and the technology becomes the story instead of the meeting. That is the gap between a room that functions and a room that was considered — you have felt it without naming it, and every decision on this page exists to close it.
The deliverable is invisibility. The camera that follows without being watched. The ceiling with nothing hanging out of it. The guest who presented without asking how. The chairman who walked out and said nothing about the room — which is the highest compliment a boardroom gets.
Start from what the room should look like. The build follows.
Three compositions cover most AVer boardrooms in the UAE. Which one is right is not a specification question — it is what sits on the table, and what the chairman sees when he walks in. Find your room in the first column.
| What your room looks like | The build | What sits on the table | UAE band |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nothing on the table — the ceiling does everything | CAM550 + FONE700 ceiling chain | Empty. Audio, speakers and camera steering live overhead | Chain quoted to table length |
| One unit on the display wall — steers itself, nothing to operate | CAM570 dual-lens, voice-steered | One speakerphone — or nothing at all | Camera AED 4,900–8,900 |
| The classic kit — PTZ view down the table, full control in reach | VC520 Pro3 / VC550 kit | Speakerphone at centre, one managed cable path | Kit quoted with the room |
Two routes handled now, before either wastes your scroll: if company policy mandates certified Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows, that room lives on the AVer CORE500 page. If the table runs past nine metres, the physics change — the large room page carries that build.
You saw it at a client's office. Faces left, deck right.
You want to know whether your room can have it, and whose job the split actually is. The honest answer: the two-screen layout is delivered by the meeting platform through the room's compute — Teams and Zoom both carry dual-monitor room modes that put people on one display and content on the other. No camera makes that split. The camera's job is to feed it one clean, properly framed picture; the audio path's job is clean sound; the compute decides where the two screens go.
What that means practically: every composition on this page carries dual-display rooms cleanly, and the decision to build the wall for two screens is made before the wall is built — mounting heights, conduit for both display runs, and the compute position all follow from it. Tell the display contractor at survey stage, not after the plasterwork.
One clean rule: nothing on this page attributes to a camera what belongs to the platform. The split is the platform's. The picture is the camera's. Rooms built on that honesty do not surprise anyone on day one.
Every render of a serious boardroom has an empty table. Yours can too.
No speakerphone in the centre. No cable crossing the wood. The first question is whether that picture is actually achievable — and the answer is yes, with the ceiling build, and here is what it involves. The FONE700 ceiling chain carries the room's microphones and speakers overhead and steers one or two CAM550 cameras from the same talker-position data. Audio, speech pickup and camera steering, all above the sightline. The table carries nothing from day one.
If the room already has ceiling microphones from another brand — Shure, Sennheiser, Nureva, Yamaha — the camera can take its steering from those instead, and the mics you paid for stay exactly where they are. That pairing has its own page: the camera and ceiling microphone integration map.
And the honest alternative: rooms that are working rooms most days — the chairman at his own table, calls with people who know each other — are often better served by the speakerphone within reach. Clean is a choice, not a rule. The survey settles which picture your room is actually asking for.
Last Tuesday, a visiting director pulled out a laptop. Three minutes to the meeting.
Nobody knew which cable. Someone called IT. The guest waited, the room watched, and the meeting started late with an apology about the technology — in the one room where that apology costs the most. Every boardroom that hosts outsiders meets this moment; the only question is whether the room was designed for it.
The AVer USB compositions handle it by nature. One cable waits at the table. The guest's laptop takes the room's camera and audio directly — their own Teams, their own Zoom, their own Meet, no room account, no pairing ritual, nobody from IT in the room. The room serves whoever is presenting, on whatever platform they brought, and the meeting starts when the agenda says it starts.
In the clean-table build, that guest cable lives in a table well or rises from a hatch. In the one-box and kit rooms, it is the same single managed path the room already uses. Either way: designed at survey, invisible until needed, and the story the guest tells afterwards is about the meeting.
Installed is not the same as ready. The difference is found during the test call — or during the meeting.
One of those is recoverable — which is why the room is never commissioned on the morning it matters, but staged before it. The survey fixes the camera height against your actual table geometry, not a diagram. Presets are locked for the chairman's seat and the whole-room view. The audio is calibrated to the room's real acoustics — a hard-surfaced boardroom and a soft-furnished executive suite are different rooms and get different tuning.
The cable paths go into conduit and behind the wall, because in this room the appearance of the installation is part of the installation — the finished look is written into the scope, not left as an aspiration. And then the test call: live, on the room's own platform, with the person who will actually run the room placing the call themselves. Not IT demonstrating to the office manager — the office manager proving to herself that she has already done it.
The handover is that moment. The quotation follows the survey. The handover follows the test call. Thursday follows nothing but the agenda.
If your room is one of these, a better page exists
If your room is one of these four, a more specific page exists.
Company policy mandates certified Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows — that is a managed-endpoint decision with a licence line, covered on the AVer CORE500 Teams Rooms page. The table runs past nine metres — the physics of depth take over, and the large room page carries that engineering.
Ceiling microphones from another brand are already installed — the pairing map on the integration page shows exactly which camera takes steering from them. And if you want to compare every camera band before choosing a composition, the USB camera page ladders the full stocked range by room size.
Two numbers that behave differently
The cameras are stock items with published bands. The room is a composition, priced after the survey — because the ceiling chain length, the display wall and the cable paths are facts of your room, not lines on a price list. Honestly separated, both stated below.
| What | UAE planning band | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Boardroom cameras — CAM520 Pro3 / CAM550 / CAM570 | AED 4,900–8,900 | From Dubai stock; model follows the composition |
| VC520 Pro3 / VC550 kit rooms | Quoted with the room | Camera, speakerphone and cabling as one set |
| FONE700 ceiling chain — the clean-table build | Quoted to table length | Audio, speakers and camera steering overhead |
| Staging & installation — survey, presets, calibration, conduit, test call | Quoted in the composition | The finished look and the test call are scope |
Send the table length, the seat count, and who the room hosts on WhatsApp. As the authorised AVer distributor for the UAE, Vector Digital Systems returns the composition read and the AED figures against current Dubai stock — usually the same day.
Boardrooms that ship beyond Dubai
Family offices, banks and holding companies outside the UAE build their board floors against Dubai supply — the composition designed here, the kit and the staging notes shipped together. Three regions account for most of that reach.
Gulf & Middle East
Family offices and corporate head offices across the Gulf fit the room where the principal sits — clean-table ceiling builds and voice-steered one-box rooms, composed in Dubai with the survey checklist travelling ahead of the shipment so the local fit-out team installs to the same standard.
Recent boardroom compositions cover Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Iraq and Jordan.
Export enquiryAfrica
Banks and holding groups across Africa fit board floors to one standard — the same composition, the same camera generation, the same staging checklist in every country office, supplied from Dubai on one invoice with export documentation prepared per destination.
Boardroom orders route to Kenya, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Uganda, Nigeria, Ghana, Egypt and South Africa.
Export enquirySouth & Central Asia · Caucasus
Holding companies and government head offices across South and Central Asia and the Caucasus take the executive-room kit through Dubai — camera, ceiling chain and the staging documentation on one shipment, with the composition confirmed against the room drawings before anything leaves.
Orders ship into Pakistan, Bangladesh, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Georgia, Azerbaijan and Armenia.
Export enquiryThe highest compliment a boardroom gets is silence
The chairman walked out of the first board meeting and said nothing about the room — which, after the previous system, was everything. The camera followed whoever spoke, the table had nothing on it, and I placed the test call myself two days before, so on the morning itself there was nothing left to worry about. Nobody has mentioned the technology since. That was the brief.
A visiting client asked who built the room — not because anything went wrong, but because his own boardroom apparently starts every call with five minutes of cable confusion. Ours started on time from a laptop he brought himself, one cable from the table well. Twenty years building this company; the boardroom finally looks like it.
The test call caught a preset that framed the chairman's seat slightly low — two days before the board met, not the morning of. It was corrected in ten minutes and the handover was signed after the call, not after the boxes arrived. As the person who gets called when this room fails, that sequence is exactly what I wanted in writing.
The executive room in the UAE — the working answers
Ten-seat boardroom — which AVer system should we choose?
Can we have two screens — faces on one, content on the other?
We want nothing on the table at all. Is that actually achievable?
A visiting board member arrives with their own laptop. Can they present without calling IT?
We do not want a PC sitting in the room. Is there a build that avoids it?
The self-steering camera or the kit with a speakerphone — how do we decide?
What does a properly built AVer boardroom cost in Dubai?
What does the finished room actually look like — are the cables hidden?
How do you make sure it works for the first board meeting?
Does it work with both Teams and Zoom?
