Logitech Extend Brings Plug-and-Play BYOD Meetings to More Rooms

Logitech

Logitech offers Logitech Extend, a simple, single-cable BYOD solution built for Android- and BYOD-based room solutions. Extend allows people to simply walk into an Android- or BYOD-based meeting room and launch a meeting from their laptop or mobile device* with a USB-C cable.

Now you have the choice of Logitech Extend, Swytch, or Direct Guest Join to fit any scenario. Time to wave those interoperability problems goodbye!

Easy, single-cable BYOD connection

All things should be this simple: With Extend, use the USB-C cable to quickly plug in a laptop or mobile device and share content or run video meetings from that device, without the need to install additional drivers or software. This means employees and visitors can bring their own laptops to connect to the in-room video conferencing system and display without worrying about platform compatibility, adapters or the need to install anything.

Extend reach in Android- and BYOD-based rooms

Deploy this two-box solution using category cabling to deliver BYOD connectivity up to 100m with the Rally Bar Family and other Logitech conference cameras. In rooms deployed for Microsoft Teams Rooms on Android or Zoom Rooms Appliances, this allows the host to temporarily bypass the designated video provider.

In BYOD rooms without a designated provider, simply connect to conduct meetings using the conference camera and display in the room. Microsoft Teams desktop users can use Logitech Extend with shared display mode to run better meetings and collaboration sessions from their laptops.

Deliver power to user’s devices

Optionally, you can add a standard USB-C power supply to the table-side hub to charge user’s laptops or mobile devices up to 100W of power delivery through the USB-C cable.

Simple to manage with Logitech Sync

IT teams can view connectivity status and deploy updates to Logitech Extend via Logitech Sync remote management software. Extend can also be updated using Zoom Device Management and Microsoft Teams Admin Center as part of Rally Bar family CollabOS updates
