The ShareLink® Pro 2500 is a 4K Dual Screen Wireless Presentation System that enables anyone to present content from computers, tablets, or smartphones on up to two displays for easy collaboration. It can simultaneously display up to four devices, including an HDMI-connected device, such as a signage player or other AV source. It includes ConferenceShare to share video and audio captured by in-room USB devices during Teams or Zoom meetings. Collaboration and moderator modes facilitate both open and controlled environments, and dual Ethernet ports support more secure environments. When used with Extron GVE – GlobalViewer Enterprise software, multiple units can be managed across an enterprise or campus. ShareLink Pro's professional capabilities provide easy integration of AV and mobile devices into meeting and large collaboration spaces.

Collaborate with Mobile and Fixed Devices

The ShareLink Pro 2500 supports both mobile and fixed devices for effective, efficient collaboration. It can simultaneously present up to four pieces of content, each displayed at resolutions of up to 1080p. The dual HDMI output supports computer and video resolutions up to 4K for connections to 4K displays. Wireless devices connect to ShareLink Pro with user-friendly software for Mac® and Windows® computers as well as Apple® and Android® tablets and smartphones. Connect wired sources such as a laptop computer to the HDMI input using an HDMI cable or use a Retractor housed within a Cable Cubby cable access enclosure. With ShareLink Pro, wired and wireless users can collaborate together, sharing content from both wired and wireless devices on the room’s display at the same time. Organizations can also use the HDMI input for guest access, eliminating the need to provide wireless access to their internal secure network systems. The wired connection can also serve as a backup connection when wireless systems are down, ensuring reliable sharing at all times.

Fixed sources such as a dedicated computer, document camera, or AV switcher can also connect to the ShareLink Pro via the HDMI input connection. In addition, a dedicated computer running unified communications software such as Teams® or Zoom® makes the space accessible for both local and remote collaboration.

Display Content from Any Device

The ShareLink Pro 2500 facilitates easy full-screen mirroring for all devices, from Mac and Windows computers to Android and Apple devices, displaying the entire screen for more fluid and easy collaboration sessions. Connect with the user-friendly software for screen mirroring, application window sharing, and access to advanced features such as moderated collaboration sessions. With the application software, users are empowered to choose what they share. Depending upon the device’s OS, users can share their entire desktop, select application windows, or one or more images or documents.

Users who want to share content without installing software can use Miracast® with the ShareLink Pro WFA 100 adapter, WebShare™, or AirPlay®. For users with Windows 10 devices, Miracast support is available via the ShareLink Pro WFA 100, an optional USB adapter connected to the ShareLink Pro 2500, which enables content sharing from Windows 10 devices without the need to download any sharing software. The WebShare feature enables content sharing via a standard web browser, which is ideal for users to share content quickly. It works with the Chrome browser on Windows, macOS, and Chrome operating systems. AirPlay lets users with Mac or iOS devices use their built-in mirroring features to enable sharing of content, similar to how one would mirror a display to an AppleTV. Simply select the ShareLink Pro unit from the list of available AirPlay devices.

The ShareLink Pro WFA 100 Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth adapter is available individually for both the U.S. and European markets. In addition, it is available as a bundle with ShareLink Pro 2500 in the ShareLink Pro 2500 Miracast & ShareNext Kit, which is also available for both the U.S. and European markets. The ShareLink Pro 2500 Miracast & ShareNext Kit includes the ShareLink Pro 2500, an external Extron Everlast™ power supply, and the ShareLink Pro WFA 100 adapter. Designed for customers who already have a ShareLink Pro 2500 device, the ShareLink Pro 2500 Miracast & ShareNext Upgrade Kit includes an external Extron Everlast power supply and ShareLink Pro WFA 100 adapter.

New Dual Screen Display

The ShareLink Pro 2500 features dual 4K HDMI outputs so content can be displayed on up to two displays. A single display can be used with content shared via AirPlay, ShareLink Pro apps, the HDMI input, and more. Each shared item is added to the display with up to four items shared at once in a quad configuration. With dual displays, the ShareLink Pro can be configured to mirror the two outputs to show the same content on each display or to extend content by showing it on the two displays based on a pre-selected layout. For example, the first two pieces of shared content can be shown side-by-side on the first display and any additional shared content, up to four total, can be shown on the second display in a side-by-side configuration. When using an AV control system, several available layout options can be changed as desired. This dual display flexibility makes the ShareLink Pro 2500 a great choice for a meeting room that hosts Teams or Zoom meetings to show the remote participants on one display and the shared content on the other.

Mirror Mode

Up to four shared items are shown on both displays. Items shared can be from ShareLink Pro App, ConferenceShare, AirPlay, Miracast(with the optional WFA 100), and WebShare.

Customize the Welcome Experience

The ShareLink Pro 2500 features a fully-customizable welcome screen with multiple configuration options to assist users in quickly connecting their devices and sharing content. Custom welcome images such as organization-specific connection instructions can be uploaded and shown as the default Welcome Screen on the display. IP or Hostname information can be displayed or hidden, as desired. Multiple images can also be displayed to provide more detailed connection instructions, support information, or any other local information. A signage player can be connected to the HDMI input connection, so the ShareLink Pro can act as a signage display when not in use for collaboration sessions, displaying updated organizational information from the signage player until the first wireless user connects, and returning to a signage display once all wireless users have disconnected. Additional signage features are available via optional Extron LinkLicense enhancements.

Digital Signage

The LinkLicense for Digital Signage enables the ShareLink Pro 2500 to work with third-party digital signage providers like Appspace, Carousel, Seenspire, and others to display their HTML-based digital signage content when users aren’t connected or sharing content. The LinkLicense enables display of H.264 content from Extron SME and SMP encoders and streaming media processors as well as any H.264 live stream when users are not connected or sharing content. The LinkLicense also enables Expo Mode, which displays dynamic content such as H.264 streams, videos, or image content instead of BYOD shared content for unique signage, announcements, or events. 

Open or Controlled Collaboration

The ShareLink Pro 2500’s default collaboration mode allows any user to display content and control the presentation. Each user can dynamically mirror their desktop or share images, documents, or applications onto the display, with a maximum of four shared items visible on the display at any one time. This can enhance interaction during brainstorming sessions, team meetings, group studies, and other collaborative meetings.

For environments where more control is required, a Moderator Mode offers centralized control over device access and presentation. The Moderator decides which users can access the display, ensuring that only their content is displayed. This mode is ideal for educational environments, allowing the instructor to have complete control of the presenters on the main classroom display. The Moderator mode can be activated on a runtime basis as needed or can be set up by the ShareLink Pro 2500 administrator for password-protected Moderator access.

New ConferenceShare

As hybrid environments become more common, it is essential to incorporate cameras and microphones from the local room for use in UC meetings. ConferenceShare™ enables that capability by wirelessly sharing video and audio from the in-room USB devices with a Windows or macOS laptop running Teams, Zoom, or other UC meetings. Now USB devices connected to the ShareLink Pro 4K Wireless Presentation System are available to users with ConferenceShare running on their laptop. Whether choosing to present locally or join a remote meeting, ConferenceShare on ShareLink Pro makes it easy to add in-room USB devices wirelessly and use the video and audio for remote participants.

Active Learning

In spaces where wireless sharing on multiple displays is needed, the optional Active Learning Support LinkLicense enables multiple ShareLink Pro 2500 Wired and Wireless Presentation Systems to display content between units. This is ideal in active learning rooms with multiple small groups working together and a central instructor station. The Active Learning Support LinkLicense will enable easy sharing among multiple displays for comparison or discussion between student groups or between the instructor and student groups. Display assignments can be controlled by an instructor using an optional touchpanel or touchpanel app interface.

Secure Collaboration

The ShareLink Pro 2500 features a suite of security protocols to ensure a safe and protected collaboration environment. All content transmitted between devices running the ShareLink Pro software and the ShareLink Pro is safeguarded with 128-bit encryption. Communications between user devices and the ShareLink Pro 2500 are protected with the HTTPS secure connection protocol. Control, monitoring, or management applications using an Extron-only control system communicate with the ShareLink Pro 2500 using SSH creating a Secure Platform Device so you can be assured of safe and reliable system operations. For environments with multiple ShareLink Pro systems, entry of a four-digit code can be required on the Welcome Screen before users can share content to the display. This feature is particularly useful to ensure users only see their content in environments that may have multiple units in close proximity, such as collaboration spaces, active learning environments, office buildings, or classroom buildings.

The ShareLink Pro 2500 also features dual Gigabit Ethernet connections, enabling segmentation of internal private networks on one Ethernet from external guest networks on another Ethernet, ensuring only authorized users can access the private network. In addition to an administrative password, additional optional passwords can be set up for a moderator or for all users, providing another layer of protection for secure collaboration.

Centralized Management

With ShareLink Pro, setting up or managing several ShareLink Pro systems is practically as easy as setting up or managing a single system. Extron PCS - Product Configuration Software conveniently sets up and configures one or many units simultaneously. PCS can save configurations for future use when expanding ShareLink Pro systems, or when restoring a unit that has been replaced. PCS also allows multiple units to receive firmware updates concurrently, saving time and greatly improving efficiency. Extron GlobalViewer Enterprise – GVE – software provides a powerful, flexible way to manage, monitor, and control ShareLink Pro 2500 and nearly any device over a standard network.
