Simple, Powerful, Secure: The All-New Yealink A40 MeetingBar

Recently launched and designed with simplicity and security in mind with its AI-powered features, the Yealink MeetingBar A40 is ideal for enhancing audio and video experiences in small—to medium-sized meeting spaces. As remote collaboration becomes essential to business operations, the A40 combines high-resolution video, intelligent AI functionality, and superior audio quality to create an immersive meeting experience. With the A40, attending remote meetings feels more natural and connected than ever before.

In a recent talk with Fuhan Lee, Product Marketing Lead at Yealink, he shared key insights about the A40 and how it fits into Yealink’s overall portfolio of all-in-one solutions.

Simplified Setup with One-Cable Deployment

One of the standout features of the A40 is its easy, one-cable setup. This streamlined approach reduces clutter, minimizes installation time, and enhances connectivity reliability.

CAT5E: No More Separate Sign-ins

The A40 connects to Yealink’s CTP25 touch console via a single CAT5E cable, which provides both power and network connectivity. A single sign-in on the console syncs the system, eliminating the need to log in on both the bar and console—a game-changer for busy meeting rooms.

“This type of connection is more reliable and flexible compared to the typical USB-C one,” Lee notes.
“But even more importantly, it means that one single sign-in (to the touch console) synchronizes the entire system, so there’s no need to sign into the bar and console separately,” he explains.

USB-C: 3 Desk Cables Combined into 1

Yealink also offers the flexibility of connecting the A40 to a PC through a USB-C cable. This connection enables 4K content sharing, power delivery, and BYOD functionality, giving users an effortless way to link devices and share content.

“Again, this makes for a very easy deployment and a highly user-friendly experience,” Lee notes.

User experience gets another boost thanks to the CTP25 touch console’s multiple deployment options, offering a choice between a standard desk deployment, a rotatable table mount, and a wall mount.

Enhanced Security with Android 13 and MDEP

Built on Android 13, the A40 provides robust security through the Microsoft Device Ecosystem Platform (MDEP). This Android-based platform enhances protection against data breaches and malicious attacks, with hardware-backed device attestation and secure monitoring capabilities. By integrating MDEP, Yealink positions the A40 as a future-proof device ready to meet the evolving security needs of today’s enterprises.

“We’re proud to be one of the first vendors to offer a meeting bar with MDEP, which can truly promise the security of the device and system,” Lee shares.

As security is a relatively common concern about Android, Lee clarifies that A40 is one of the first Android-based products to eliminate it:
“MDEP, running on Android 13, promises uncompromising security standards compared to solutions running on Android 10 and 11,” he reassures.

AI-Powered Features for an Elevated Experience

Other than deployment and security benefits, the A40 is packed with intelligent, AI-driven features that enhance the overall meeting experience. The dual 48MP cameras provide crystal-clear close-ups, while the ultra-wide 120° field of view captures every participant effortlessly. Additionally, its IntelliFocus technology focuses on active speakers, making discussions more engaging and dynamic.

Yealink’s All-in-One Meeting Solutions: Ready for Every Scenario

The A40 MeetingBar is one part of Yealink’s all-in-one meeting solution suite, designed to serve different hybrid meeting scenarios and ease collaboration.

“We offer two series of all-in-one solutions to allow customers to choose according to room size, budget, and existing equipment,” Lee explains.

The traditional MeetingBar series is meant for rooms already equipped with a TV screen that can be reused or cases where a separate setup is preferred. A40 is its newest member, designed for small and medium rooms.

For larger spaces, Yealink offers the MeetingBoard series, allowing you to recommend options that fit clients’ room sizes and technical requirements.

With the Yealink MeetingBar A40, you can confidently offer your customers a versatile, high-performance video collaboration bar tailored to modern meeting needs. Its ease of deployment, AI-driven features, and top-tier security make it a reliable choice for small-to-medium meeting rooms. By adding the A40 to your portfolio, you can meet the demand for seamless and secure video conferencing solutions in the evolving hybrid workspace.
