Overview

VIA Connect² is a smart, secure, wireless and wired presentation and collaboration platform that makes it simple to get actual work done during meetings and classes. With most laptops or mobile devices, users can view, edit, and comment on documents in real−time sessions.

Kramer’s new VIA 4.0 is all about the end user. The new VIA application UI is intuitive, user−friendly and much easier to use. VIA 4.0 enables any user, including guests, to easily and securely connect and automatically disconnect at the end of the session.

Meeting participants can display or stream full, uninterrupted video from their device, and even play YouTube® videos in full frame rate. Up to four participants can share their screens simultaneously on the main display either using the VIA app mirroring feature, iOS mirroring via AirPlay™, Windows & Android mirroring via Miracast™, or ChromeBook mirroring. The shared screen sizes are automatically adjusted based on their respective source, and can be resized manually by the user when needed.

The platform can handle most small to medium size meeting spaces and is ideal for classrooms and huddle spaces. VIA Connect² is super−compact (74x74mm) with flexiblity to install with both built−in Wi−Fi and LAN connectivity and includes industry−leading 1024−bit encryption for secure use on the internal network.
