Are you looking for an affordable solution to connect Barco’s ClickShare Conference System with a wired USB peripheral system? INOGENI’s TOGGLE provides a cost-effective solution for switching between different USB peripherals in a room.
With the TOGGLE, you can connect the Barco ClickShare Conference System (CX-20, CX-30, CX-50) with a variety of computer systems, including MTRs and Zoom Rooms. TOGGLE can also automatically switch the USB peripherals between the ClickShare Conference System (CX-50 with a wired BYOD setup) and a laptop.
Connecting INOGENI’s TOGGLE with the ClickShare Conference System and MTR or Zoom Rooms is easy.
Once the connections are made, you can operate the device with the TOGGLE’s button or the room control processor connected to its GPI input or RS232 port. If the room has a control processor with RS232 capabilities, you can use it to manually send commands through RS232. Make sure to configure the TOGGLE in “Manual mode” using the INOGENI Control App.
To use the INOGENI TOGGLE with a laptop, connect the CX-50 USB to the TOGGLE’s USB-B, the BYOD PC USB to the TOGGLE’s USB-B, and CX-50 HDMI Out to the display. Connect the BYOD HDMI Out to HDMI In of CX-50 and USB peripherals to the TOGGLE’s USB-A.
After the connections are made, the user can walk in the room and wirelessly present by connecting to ClickShare—either either the button or the ClickShare App. Via ClickShare, the user can share their screen or individual applications. They can also wirelessly present a conference by connecting to ClickShare. If the user wants to switch to the BYOD laptop, they can connect their laptop to the TOGGLE’s USB-B. The peripherals will automatically switch from ClickShare (CX-50 with wired BYOD setup) to the laptop, and the user can share their laptop screen in full HD resolution.
In summary, INOGENI’s TOGGLE is a low-cost solution for connecting Barco’s ClickShare Conference System with wired USB peripherals. It’s easy to install and use, making it an excellent addition to any videoconferencing room!
