How do I extend the connection between the Swytch Hub and the Extension Hub?
The Logitech Swytch is a versatile connectivity solution designed to simplify joining videoconferencing calls from any laptop in meeting rooms equipped with room solutions for platforms like Microsoft Teams and Zoom Rooms. Essentially, it acts as a link between your laptop and the room’s conferencing equipment.
Users can connect their laptop to the room's audio and video hardware using the Logitech Swytch. This is done by plugging in a single USB cable, which enables the laptop to access the room's advanced cameras, microphones, and speakers, regardless of the conferencing software being used. The Swytch ensures that guests or employees using different conferencing services can easily connect their own devices and utilize the room’s powerful AV technology.
Here is a basic wiring diagram:
