IS/IEC 62368-1:2023 for Conference Room Technology: Video Conferencing and AV Equipment

Video conferencing systems, professional AV equipment, and conference room technology require IS/IEC 62368-1:2023 BIS CRS registration. This is relevant for both manufacturers of AV equipment and businesses importing conference room systems.

Products Covered

• Video conferencing cameras and camera bars
• Conference room speakers and audio systems
• Interactive flat panel displays (IFPDs) / smart whiteboards
• HDMI switches, AV signal processors, and matrix switchers
• Conference room microphones (USB and Bluetooth)
• Wireless presentation systems
• Codec units and video conferencing endpoints

Large Interactive Flat Panel Displays

Interactive flat panel displays (commonly 55"-86") are large-format screens combining display, touch capability, and computing. They have significant power consumption (100-350W) and may be PS3 at the upper end. IS 18112:2025 (television sets standard) may also apply to large format displays — confirm with your lab whether IS 18112 applies to your IFPD category.

Integrated Conference Room Systems

Many modern conference room solutions combine multiple product categories — camera, speaker, display, compute — into one integrated system. The system must be evaluated as a whole under IS/IEC 62368-1:2023. Each subsystem with its own power supply may need individual evaluation.

Always-On Systems

Conference room equipment typically operates in always-available standby modes. Thermal evaluation under extended standby operation (not just active use) is relevant for products that maintain active power circuitry in standby.

Migration Timeline

Migrate from IS 616 (for displays and audio) or IS 13252 (for computing components) to IS/IEC 62368-1:2023 by November 2028. HOT handles IS 62368 AV and conference room product testing.
