Conference room setup for customer display
I am trying to figure out the most efficient way to get our companies new TV’s to link how our sales people like it.
These TV’s were purchased without my approval, and now I am attempting to make them work (so purchasing new tv’s with the software won’t cut it)
Basically our sales people want to be able to bring in customers, and allow the customers or themselves to connect to the new large 86 inch LG screen tv they had installed in the conference room. It has Airplay defaulted on there, but no smart share. (The installer was just worried about his phone connecting the whole time).
**EDIT: Talking about wireless connections specifically due to the tv being a good distance away from the conference table, and they don’t want to drill a hole through marble to make a cable “look nice”. Clean and professional looking are def an important aspect**
So what would be both the efficient, smooth, and cost efficient way of random people walking in with devices (connected to my guest wifi, which I’ll hook the TV too as well), being able to plug something in, and start broadcasting their display on the large TV.
Ideally something that doesn’t require extensive software downloads since we have rotating customers with their personal devices.
Plug and play would be ideal. Some kind of remote HDMI is possible, but have heard very mixed results from it. Something that users cannot mess with.Just checking for ideas here if anyone has any. Remote HDMI atm is my leading “solution” but I am not to happy with the thought of that. I worry about it interfering with my wifi network.
EDIT: Also something that is mutli compatible (hdmi, displayport, usb, microusb, etc) since not all laptops have the same type of ports available now adays.
