BYOD Video Conferencing – But Without the Wires

BYOD Video Conferencing – But Without the Wires

BYOD conferencing enables the user to host video calls on whatever platform they choose from their laptop. To achieve this they need to access the room audio and video hardware to enable groups to conference with remote participants. Room systems, such as Microsoft Teams Room (MTR) systems allow users access without the need to connect a host computer. However, room solutions tend to be tied in to a single platform such as Teams. Smaller room systems will generally either have a videobar design with integrated camera and microphones onboard. They tend to use an Android operating system. Larger systems include a dedicated Windows room computer such as an Intel NUC. Most of these room solutions do have the option making calls on other conferencing platforms, but only by connecting a wired host computer.

What many users want is the platform agnostic and familiarity of a BYOD solution, without the wires. This is exactly what the new ScreenBeam Conference offers. ScreenBeam Conference is free software solution to users of the ScreenBeam 1100 Plus. It adds wireless connectivity to room cameras, microphones and speakers. Support for native wireless display protocols means users can wirelessly present from any device without having to install and maintain an application, or use a dongle or cable. On Windows devices Screenbeam uses Miracast to connect, on Apple Devices it uses AirPlay. There is also support on Chromebook or from Chrome browsers using GoogleCast. Support for iOS means you can even use an iPad or a mobile phone to host your conference calls.

Benefits of Wireless Content Sharing

ScreenBeam brings a whole host of other benefits, aside from getting rid of that cable from the host computer to the conferencing hardware. Wirelessly sharing content into meetings is a breeze with Multi-View enabling up to four users to share content. With the Quick Switch mode enabling you to effortlessly switch the presenter from one user to another. 

The benefits of the ScreenBeam 1100 Plus go far beyond the wireless conference feature. For internal meetings and training sessions users can wirelessly share and mark-up content on the room display. They can do so without first downloading an app, or finding the right dongle or cable. ScreenBeam connects simultaneously to both internal and guest networks simultaneously without compromising security. The ScreenBeam 1100 Plus also supports digital signage. Therefore idle displays in conference and other meeting rooms can be employed to transmit employee and guest communications. It does this with integrated HTML-based digital signage capability.
