Huddle Hub Installation Guide
When you want to make presentations using the TV screen of rooms other than the main room where
your HHO unit is placed, obviously you cannot plug them to the HHO unit, but you have to exploit HHO
ability to send presentation to the screen of other devices. In fact, those TV sets can receive the
presentation provided that they are:
·
Smart TVs, with a compatible web browser can receive the presentation through the web viewer.
·
Android TVs, which can receive the presentation through the Android TV client.
·
Standard TVs, equipped with an Android dongle or set-top box.
In any other place in your company, which is not equipped with a large display, you can advantage of
HHO collaboration facilities for an impromptu or ad hoc meeting: the possibility to present and receive
directly on laptops and mobiles, without the need for a TV.
The only condition is that you are able to reach the HHO unit through the company LAN. Provided that
this connectivity condition is respected, the actual location of your HHO unit is not relevant, it can be
placed anywhere in the company: in a traditional huddle room, but also a data center, server room or
any other place under IT Manager’s control.
4.2 Network Topology
In the following chapters we will discuss the possible network configuration options. In all cases we
will highlight the possibility to have participants with full access to the company LAN, and others
restricted to the role of guests, able to receive the presentation on their devices and also to present,
but with no access to other resources.
·
HHO features a wired network adapter, and there is just one possible configuration: connecting it to
the company LAN.
·
HHO+ has also a wireless network adapter, which can be configured in Station Mode (client of an
AP) or in Access Point Mode. The combination of these two wired/wireless interfaces leads to
some possible network topologies.
Please see the Configuration Guide for details about settings your HHO unit for a specific
configuration, and the Network Security Guide for recommendations on how to make a secure
deployment of a HHO unit in your network.
