All you need to do is plug it into the display make sure it has power and you’re off and running. You don’t have to connect the BenQ to your schools’s WiFi or even the LAN. How this works is that the button and the base station form their own private (and encrypted) network. The lag is nearly nonexistent and the image is crystal clear. You plug in one of the buttons into your computer, wait for the light to turn green, press the light and you’re connected.

What makes this different from the Mersive and the Barco WePresent is that no software is needed. The packaging does include a traditional plug if your device doesn’t have a USB. The good news is that connecting it to a TV or projector’s USB port is sufficient to power the base station. Meaning you need to use the micro USB port to power the device. Unfortunatelye the BenQ Instashare does not have Power Over Ethernet (POE). On the back of the base station you have few options.Īs you can see, there is a pairing button, an Ethernet input, and HDMI connector and a microUSB connector (for power). This initial pairing is pretty quick and you only need to do it once. The first time, you will need to pair the buttons with the base station. The base station obviously plugs into the projector or display and the buttons plug into the computer.

You get a button or two and a base station. No whiteboard, no multiple computers on the same screen simultaneously, just takes your screen and puts on a projector/TV. Let me tell you fellow reader – it works really well. It can mirror your screen or allow the second screen to act as an extended display. We do have two buttons that will allow you to quickly (and seemlessly) switch between one computer and another on the same display. The version I have is USB but they do have other connector types available to purchase and all are around the same price point. I looked the cost up on CDW and the cost for this system is $1100 USD. If you are familiar with Barco’s ClickShare (review coming soon) you will notice an immediate similarity, and you would be correct! It basically works under the same principal which I’ll check out below. They may a bevy of products and this is one of them. A lot of people may not be too familiar with BenQ in North America, but they have it looks as though they have been making steady inroads into the continent. The journey continues! This time we are looking at the BenQ Instashow. READ ALL THE REVIEWS ON THIS PAGE – STREAMING IN THE CLASSROOM SERIES
