Overview
As a wireless BYOD solution, the VP2020 / VP2021 is a 4K presentation switch featuring a Wi-Fi module and multiple access approaches for the essential connectivity that a successful meeting requires. It enables users to cast up to 4K content to 1 HDMI-enabled display and 1 VGA-enabled display at the same time via Wi-Fi from their laptops or mobile devices. Such wireless connectivity supports all major operating platforms, including Windows, macOS, and Android, through the dedicated ATEN Wireless Presentation Switch App. Moreover, the VP2020 / VP2021 is compatible with AirPlay and Google Cast ^1 , and Chrome.
The VP2020 / VP2021 contains various features that make it a perfect collaboration terminal. The VP2020 allows up to 8 attendees to quickly enter a meeting either wirelessly or via Ethernet connection to the local network; the VP2021, on the other hand, while enabling up to 8 attendees to join the meeting remotely, it also enables up to 20 to attend via Ethernet connection. With the capability of displaying multiple sources simultaneously, content can be presented in full screen / side-by-side / quad view (VP2021 only) screen layouts. When auto layout projection is enabled, the layout can be switched automatically whenever a new signal is detected. The USB-C and USB Type-A ports feature touch back functionality, delivering seamless operation of a presentation directly from a connected touchscreen or mouse. Moderation Mode gives the moderator access to manage and control attendees' connection status as well as the AV content being displayed. Moreover, the VP2021 supports collaboration tools, such as annotation, whiteboard on screen, and screen capturing, to take video conferencing and digital learning experiences to the next level.
Additional highlights include the all-metal enclosure that gives the presentation switch a sleek look while guaranteeing durability. VP2020 / VP2021's support for Power over Ethernet (PoE) connectivity makes installation easier without the need for an extra power adapter. Integration with audio amplifiers or mixing systems is made easier thanks to the audio de-embedding functionality. The VP2020 / VP2021 is a perfect fit for achieving seamless teamwork in any wireless meeting.
