This product page focuses on the AVer VC520PRO2/3 and FONE540/700 Expansion Cable featuring a 20-meter length and a LAN RJ-45 connection, compared alongside other professional AVer equipment and accessories such as the HUB30 matrix switcher, PTZ camera remote controls, the VB130 video soundbar, and the TR211B broadcast camera. While all these items belong to the AVer ecosystem for meeting spaces, they serve completely different functions: the expansion cable solves physical long-range connectivity, whereas the alternative products handle signal switching, camera operation, audio-visual capture, or live streaming.
⚙️ The specifications comparison table below contrasts the device type, primary purpose, and connection interfaces of the expansion cable against the alternative AVer products.
