LinkLicense for Digital Signage

This upgrade enables ShareLink Pro to display web-based HTML content from digital signage providers such as Appspace, Carousel, Seenspire, and others, when users are not connected to the products. This signage content can be tailored to include audio and video information for current events, notices, weather, traffic, or other topics the administrator may create with their signage provider’s system. Once users connect to ShareLink Pro to share content and collaborate, the signage content is removed but returns once all users disconnect. LinkLicense for Digital Signage allows customers to fully utilize their ShareLink Pro display screens for messaging and background imagery when they are not being used for presentations and collaboration.

LinkLicense for Digital Signage also enables ShareLink Pro devices to decode H.264‑based streams from select Extron streaming products or other available live streams. These video streams can originate from Extron SME and SMP encoders and streaming media processors or can originate from any live H.264 stream available on the network. This LinkLicense® also supports Expo Mode on the ShareLink Pro to temporarily replace the ShareLink Pro welcome screens or BYOD shared content with H.264 streams, videos, or image content for special events or unique signage needs.

Unique Features
  • Displays digital signage content on the ShareLink Pro when users are not connected or sharing content – Allows displays to be used for information, as well as presentation or collaboration.
  • Increases utilization of dark display screens with continuous visual content — This eliminates the need for an external media player or additional displays to provide content.
  • Provides current information and content tailored to user needs via centralized digital signage providers — Centralized signage providers such as Appspace, Carousel, Seenspire, and others, make it easy to supply consistent information across many rooms or spaces.
  • H.264 Streaming Signage feature displays H.264 content on the ShareLink Pro when users are not connected or sharing — Content from Extron SME and SMP encoders and streaming media processors can be selected as well as any H.264 live stream.
  • Expo Mode enables the ShareLink Pro to display dynamic content as an alternative to the welcome screens — Temporarily display H.264 streams, videos, or image content instead of BYOD shared content for unique events, announcements, or signage.

LinkLicense for Active Learning

In spaces where wireless sharing on multiple displays is needed, LinkLicense for Active Learning enables multiple ShareLink Pro devices to display content between units. This is ideal in active learning rooms with multiple small groups working together and a central instructor station. LinkLicense for Active Learning will enable easy sharing among multiple displays for comparison or discussion between student groups or between the instructor and student groups. Display assignments can be controlled by an instructor using an optional touchpanel or touchpanel app interface. This LinkLicense also enables the use of ConferenceShare software with ShareLink Pro systems to streamline Microsoft Teams or Zoom UC meetings.

Unique Features
  • Share content between multiple ShareLink Pro devices – Enables content on one ShareLink Pro display to be shown on other ShareLink Pro displays. This allows multiple ShareLink Pro devices in a space to share content for active learning spaces where wireless sharing on multiple displays is needed.
  • Ideal for active learning spaces
  • Enables the use of ConferenceShare software to streamline Microsoft Teams or Zoom UC meetings
  • Saves equipment and installation costs — LinkLicense-enabled ShareLink Pro 1100 devices in an active learning space eliminate the need for hardwired AV cabling and equipment between student and instructor stations found in traditional AV installations.
