When you understand the development time necessary the cost doesn’t seem as high. Most times the Mersive also replaces the need for a PC and management costs/time of that system in the room. We get some of the same concerns with the price though.

We use Solstice and Crestron AirMedia in most places, but people in one off locations scoff at the $1000 price. Ditto sounds like an idea worth trying for the customers who already bought Apple TVs thinking they would work like at home. Thanks, Joseph B.

The $1K price per box was worth it to us for the development time put in to keeping their solution working on all clients. We wire them into ethernet and disable the wireless adapters. This allows us to use our own 802.1x wireless ssid and connect to them over our enterprise network. There were other solutions.. AirTame doesn’t do iOS mirroring yet, etc .. Mersive is the most complete. From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> on behalf of "Curtis K.

Most Apple TVs purchased in the last few years can use bluetooth for discovery instead of the network, but failing that Airtame is a decent option. https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fairtame.com&data=02%7C01%7Cjdh132%40psu.edu%7C41d62ddf93034933388808d5d6bd3e5f%7C7cf48d453ddb4389a9c1c115526eb52e%7C0%7C0%7C636651030667204159&sdata=1rkFpMuanOUappNc%2FdXH2g4i1QQJcYbr3fD1waDn%2BE8%3D&reserved=0 Thanks, -- Curtis K.
