Note: A dedicated Internet connection is recommended for the devices powering the Projector Panel and Moderator Panel to ensure a stable connection throughout the session. This ensures that any disruption in WiFi connectivity will not affect the speed and response time. We recommend using a dedicated LAN line for Projector Panels if wifi connection at your event venue is not stable.
A graphic switcher is recommended for events that have multiple inputs and a single output, for frequent switching between videos, presentation slides and/or the Projector Panel. You may consider using a graphic switcher for a smoother transition between the various outputs.
