Solstice Conference Supported Peripherals
Solstice Conference brings wireless video conferencing to any Solstice-enabled room. Using a ‘Bring Your Own Meeting’ (BYOM) approach, any laptop-based video conferencing software is supported with a simple one-step start user experience. Solstice’s rich, multi-participant collaboration can now be shared to remote users with Solstice Conference.
With the introduction of Solstice Conference, USB peripherals can be connected directly to the Solstice Pod to create a new class of a video conferencing room system. When a laptop wirelessly connects to the Pod, these devices are presented to the host laptop as though they have been directly connected, supporting a simple, wireless conferencing experience.
Peripheral Types
Peripherals can include microphones, speakers, cameras, and composite devices that include one or more of these capabilities. The Pod supports both USB 2.0 and 3.0 devices. Multiple peripherals can be plugged into the Pod, including the use of a third-party USB hub.
Connectivity and Setup
The Solstice Pod supports a plug-and-play experience. No drivers or new software needs to be installed on the Pod itself. Simply connect supported devices to the USB 2.0/3.0 ports on the back of the Pod to enable users to wirelessly bridge to those devices on demand.
Connected USB devices are only supported when using the USB 2.0/3.0 ports on the back of the Pod. The USB-C port on the front of the Pod does not support any connected devices. Attempting to utilize the Pod's USB-C port may result in unexpected outcomes.
If you have multiple audio devices connected to a Solstice Pod, see
Power Considerations
Peripherals that contain a rechargeable battery are not recommended. These devices will attempt to charge their batteries via the USB connection to the Pod, which the Pod is not designed for. If the connected peripherals require more than 1.5 amps total power over USB, it should first be connected to a powered USB hub that is then plugged into the Pod, or to a separate power supply, so it does not draw power from the Pod.
Certified Peripherals
Solstice Conference supports plug-and-play USB devices such as room cameras and microphones. These devices must be connected to the Pod via USB 2.0 or 3.0. The devices listed below have been tested and verified by Mersive to work with Solstice Conference and have full support of the device’s functionality unless noted otherwise. As a note, the following list is not a comprehensive list of all compatible peripherals, but contains those that have been tested and verified by Mersive.
