Neat Bar And Pad Bundle

The Neat Bar is a meeting room device to capture your meetings., bringing high audio and video quality. The Bar is perfect for huddle or focus rooms, being able to capture up to 10 or more participants in the room. 

The Neat Bar can be used with either one or two room displays, using the Bar is easy with connecting the Bar to the display screen with the HDMI cable. The Neat Bar will automatically start up when entering the room, then all you have do is tap on the Neat Pad to share your screen or to start your meeting.

A Neat Pad is an 8″ touchscreen display that can be used as a room controller or a scheduling display outside of the meeting room. 

Neat Bar ships with a wall mount, screen mount and table stand so it’s easy for anyone to install and set-up, above or below one or two screens.

Neat can use any standard flat panel display with HDMI input and a 1080p resolution (16:9 aspect ratio) or higher. In general, thinner displays with standard VESA mounting attachment points are most compatible with our mounting hardware.

Neat Bar and Neat Pad need to be on the same subnet to be able to find each other and pair together. In most cases, pairing problems occur because the Bar and Pad are not connected to the same subnet (and are unable to send/receive multicast packets between each other). For example, if you have connected your Bar to wired network, but Pad on Wi-Fi network, it is possible they are on two different networks in your company.

Please see Neat’s network and firewall requirements guide for further understanding of this topic.

A quick way to find out if you are in the same network is by finding the IP address and subnet mask of both Neat Pad (through the Pad settings) and Neat Bar (press the reset button once at the back of the Bar). If you are not familiar with IP addressing, please reach out to your Network administrator for confirmation, or email Neat’s technical support team at support@neat.no.

Yes! All Neat devices support Wi-Fi and are compatible with both 2.4 and 5 Ghz networks. Users can choose the Wi-Fi option during the setup process. For more information, please see the article Wi-Fi support on Neat devices.

Yes. The Neat Bar ships with a Neat Pad and both will need to be paired together to operate as a complete Zoom Room device.

When installing a Neat Bar with its dedicated Neat Pad, choose the setup: ‘Set up Neat Bar with controller’.

You can also buy additional Neat Pads to work as either extra Zoom Room Controller or Zoom Room Scheduler (however, these do not need to be paired with a Neat Bar at the Neat level). If you are using the Neat Pad as an extra controller either for a Neat Bar/Neat Board or a 3rd party Zoom Room system, choose the setup ‘Add a controller’. To use Neat Pad as a Scheduler, choose the ‘Add a scheduler’ option.

All Neat devices run Neat OS, a hardened and secure firmware that is locked to Zoom Room and the Zoom cloud. All management of Neat devices happens in the Zoom portal.

Neat Bar is perfect for bringing superior-quality audio and video to your huddle, focus and meeting spaces with up to 10 participants.

Neat Bar is optimized for up to 16 feet (5 meters), but no two rooms are ever really alike and there are many nuances to every room environment which is why we recommend you try Neat Bar in your meeting space.

Neat Bar can be connected to one or two screens. When connecting to only one TV screen, you must connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI 1 port of the Neat Bar. The HDMI 2 port should be used for the additional screen.

Once you launch Zoom Room software on Neat, the Bar and Pad should auto-pair and present you with a sign-in screen. Click on ‘Sign in’ and you can either ‘Enter activation code’ or sign-in to your Zoom account and select a Zoom room (or create a new Zoom Room). You will need a Zoom administrator account to obtain the ‘Activation key’ from the Zoom portal.

Neat Bar has five built in microphones angled in an end-fire array and three sensor mics, to enable advanced differential beamforming and optimize audio pick up for up to 16 feet (5 meters).

Neat Bar pairs with our Neat Pad controller, which has two built-in microphones as well. When we enable these mics in a future software release, the audio pick up will be further enhanced to support even larger meeting rooms.

Yes, Neat devices support full Zoom digital signage functionality. Please see here for more info: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/360000030683-Zoom-Rooms-digital-signage
