Splashtop Intros Mirroring360 Sender
Splashtop has added the Mirroring360 Sender to its
line of screen mirroring and extended display products to support digital
content sharing from computers and mobile devices to large TVs and displays.
In mid-2014, the company introduced Mirroring360, which lets people share
content from a computer or tablet to a separate display over a Wi-Fi network.
With the addition of the Mirroring360 Sender, the platform now supports
wireless content sharing from Windows 7, Windows Vista and Windows 8 computers,
as well as iPads, iPhones, Mac computers, Surface Pro and Android 5 devices.
Supported receiving devices include Apple TVs or any computer or device with
Mirroring360 receiver software installed, including Amazon Fire TV, Amazon Fire
TV Stick or the Google Nexus Player.
According to the company, it developed the product with schools in mind, and
its Mirroring Assist
feature is intended to help IT administrators roll out the product without the
need to reconfigure the network or purchase new networking equipment. To
prevent problems with device auto-discovery on separate subnets or virtual
local area networks (VLANs), or in the case of multiple mirroring receivers on
a single subnet, Mirroring Assist lets users connect their sending device
to the receiver using either a QR code or Meeting ID.
Mirroring360 Sender for Windows is available for $6.99 — 50 percent
off the regular price — for a limited time, and includes a 7-day free
trial. Further information about Mirroring360 Sender is available on the company's site.
