The InstaShow S has all the features most companies would ever want in a wireless HDMI meeting room system. It comes with two buttons and a tabletop holder to keep everything neat.

The system is very easy to use and doesn’t require any apps or special software to be loaded onto a presenters device . You plug in a “button” which is a wireless HDMI transmitter to your notebook or mobile device, and with one tap – start presenting to the screen. The BenQ InstaShow WDC-10 is an example of an entry-level wireless HDMI system designed for meeting room collaboration. The most popular systems such as the Barco ClickShare or BenQ InstaShow can use dedicated buttons , as well as wireless apps - and support Miracast as well as other streaming protocols such as AirPlay for Mac OS and iOS devices to make connecting to the display as easy as possible.

While these are inexpensive Miracast alternative solutions, they may not be what you need for collaboration meeting rooms where BYOD devices are common. For $39, this plugs into the HDMI and USB port on a TV or projector and enables you to send a Miracast signal from up to 23 feet away.Īnother popular solution is the BenQ QCast Video Streaming Dongle , which is designed to run on many of the popular BenQ projectors and can wirelessly stream your videos, movies, documents, websites, and live video sessions to any display with 1080p image quality and smooth 30fps video. Since many companies use displays without integrated Smart TV software in meeting rooms, one inexpensive alternative is the use of Miracast with a Microsoft Wireless Display Adaptor.
