Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows

Single‑cable BYOD, dual‑screen operation and reliable GPIO control for Teams Rooms on Windows. Lightware integrates AV distribution, USB management and room control for predictable, low‑support Microsoft Teams Rooms deployments.

Our Microsoft Teams Rooms Integration allows integrators to expand MTR system functionality by adding advanced AV connectivity, automation, and control features that go beyond the MTR core system.

Meeting Peripherals in BYOD Mode

Enables users to connect their own laptop and utilize the room’s professional camera and microphone setup on any video platform.

Share Content

Allows simultaneous content sharing from a secondary laptop while a Microsoft Teams Rooms meeting is in progress.

Control Devices in the Room

Manage devices like the projector or lighting via the touch panel, enhancing the overall room experience.

Dual‑Display Teams Rooms on Windows

Single‑Cable BYOD with GPIO Control

MTRoW solution using the UCX‑4x3‑HCM40 (Taurus Dual Screen) that supports dual‑display extended desktop from one USB‑C cable, transparent USB and video extension for room peripherals, and deterministic mode switching via a physical GPIO button with optional Companion‑app automation.

One USB‑C connection from a laptop provides an extended desktop across both room displays, letting presenters show different content on each screen in BYOD mode
Physical GPIO button offers one‑touch MTR/BYOD switching with LED status
UCX routing preserves full USB (UVC, HID, audio) and video performance across extenders and receivers so cameras, speakerphones and touch panels behave predictably

Control with Just One Cable

Dual screen BYOD functionality with over a single USB-C cable

Seamless MTRoW integration

Call status monitoring and flexible peripheral switching

Universal Compatibility

Plug-and-play support for Windows and macOS devices

Manual Teams Mode/BYOD Mode switching

GPIO button integration with live LED light feedback

Reliable, automated room flow

with a manual safety net

Automated when it should be: The Companion App switches between MTR and BYOD based on real call status, and can expose a custom second page UI for source selection and room control on the MTR touch panel FileConfluence.

Manual when it must be: A simple GPIO button provides instant, user-driven mode switching with LED feedback—and keeps the room usable even if the Companion App’s call-status or UI integration is unavailable FileJira.

Prevents accidental call interruption: Call-status awareness can block switching USB away from the MTR during an active call, so users can’t kill a meeting by mistake File.

Consistent user experience: Keep the benefits of automation and room-control UI when available, with guaranteed local control as a fallback—no complex programming required.
