What is the KanexPro Collaboration Line?
KanexPro Collaboration products are purpose-built AV switching and distribution solutions for modern meeting spaces — from small huddle rooms to large conference rooms and video wall installations. All products are designed for BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) environments, supporting USB-C and HDMI laptops, USB peripheral sharing, and corporate network integration out of the box.
The Collaboration line is organized into three subcategories:
- Huddle Room: Compact switchers for 2–8 person rooms with one or two displays.
- Presentation: Full-featured switchers for larger rooms with multiple mixed sources, HDBaseT 70m extension, and Dante audio.
- Video Wall: Processors and matrix switchers for tiling one source across multiple displays.
