SRS2 Logitech or Crestron Smart Dock. Microsoft opinion ?
Dear members, I have a SRS2 Logitech smart dock, and was interested with Crestron Smart dock for the Crestron capabilities to interact with our current Crestron automated investment. I had a disc...
Do you have a confirmation on that April GA date? I know the page states it, but have you actually gotten a commitment from Crestron?
Hi,
No, I have no information directly from Crestron. Only this page and second hand information from people at Enterprise Connect that stoped by the Crestron booth.
- Hi i got an insight response from Crestron and this Smart Dock is not officialy defined for the reseller they don't know if Microsoft is going to sell it or Crestron. They prefer to promote their own product ak Mercury or RL2 as shown in the ISE exposition. Shame because it looks good...
I received a call from Crestron as well. They mentioned Mercury, however isn't RL2 still the first generation Lync / Skype Room System? I'm waiting to hear back from them on information about their Next Generation Skype Room System.
- Yes unfortunately it's the old generation Lync Room System1 and it will not be updated. Microsoft will put efforts towards SRS2 and evolutions of the build.
Mercury is not linked to SRS2 and is not embedded with a Skype account, rather a telephony product equipped with a camera. Think about a HUB with a USB camera, phone compatible with Cisco, and then you plug your PC to the Mercury and use this device.
