Huddle Room

Challenge

Confidentiality has been all but eliminated thanks to the proliferation of open office plans. Small meeting areas where a few employees can meet, collaborate, and share ideas in a secure place without disrupting the entire office are a necessity.

These flexible huddle rooms typically have low-cost flat panels with inputs for a laptop and use PC-based teleconferencing. The supporting AV equipment needs to be simple yet powerful in order to preserve the ad hoc collaboration that drives the need for these spaces.

Solution

From powerful yet small switchers to simple transmitter / receiver combos like the OME-EX-KIT-LT, Atlona has multiple solutions that enable cost-effective huddle rooms. Part of the Omega™ Series of integration products, the OME-EX-KIT delivers excellent performance and value for 4K presentation and video conferencing applications.

The integrated USB extension addresses the challenge of easily connecting between USB devices located in different parts of the room. This includes our Captivate™ Series CAP-FC110 4K ePTZ auto-framing camera and CAP-SP100 USB / Bluetooth® speakerphone which dramatically improve video conferencing performance over native laptop capabilities.

With robust HDBaseT™ extension of video, embedded audio, control, Ethernet, and USB, you can be certain Atlona technology supports collaboration!

Challenge

Small meeting areas where 2-3 employees can meet, collaborate, and share ideas are necessary because interaction at a cubicle eliminates confidentiality and interrupts nearby workers. But with small spaces, come small budgets. Low-cost flat panels, simple inputs for a laptop or iPad, and PC-based teleconferencing are the components of these basic systems.

Solution

From transmitter / receiver combos to small switchers, Atlona has multiple solutions that enable cost-effective huddle rooms. Integrated control, audio de-embedding, and switching make the design simple and repeatable. Advanced Automatic Display Control features make it simple for anyone to use these rooms. With switching, scaling, HDBaseT™ extension for inputs and outputs, and audio de-embedding in a small box, you can be certain Atlona technology supports collaboration!

Application Design

AV + USB extension for huddle spaces

The OME-EX-KIT-LT is ideal for presentation environments that require extension of AV signals from a table to a display located across the room. It also extends USB signals from the CAP-FC110 camera and CAP-SP100 speakerphone for use in video conferencing applications. .
