Background
After the AirPresence client successfully connects
to the endpoint, you can connect the endpoint to presentation sources
and share presentations without the use of any physical ports.
An AirPresence client supports coded transmission resolutions of 720p and 1080 pixels.
If the computer and endpoint are on the same LAN, you can share your computer desktop as a presentation without using a VGA cable to connect the video output port on the computer to the presentation input port on the endpoint.
Implementing AirPresence with multiple computers must be done in turn. For example, if two computers A and B are available in a conference and their desktops are required to be shared as presentations during the conference, install AirPresence clients on both computers. When the desktop of computer A is required to be shared as the presentation, connect computer A to the endpoint. When computer B is required, disconnect computer A from the endpoint and connect computer B to the endpoint to share computer B's desktop as the presentation.
