Crestron AirMedia® Receiver AM‑3100‑WF

Connect and Present

To establish a smart room with wireless collaboration, the Receiver can be positioned underneath, beside, or discreetly behind a display. It comes equipped with AirMedia wireless presentation functionality, an HDMI® output that supports display resolutions up to 4K, and multiple USB interfaces for wireless conferencing. Whether it’s a laptop, smartphone, tablet, AirMedia Connect adapter, or other type of source, connecting it instantly displays the source image on the screen.

AirMedia Wireless Presentation

With AirMedia technology, users have the ability to wirelessly present content from their laptops, smartphones, and tablets using either the built-in Wi‑Fi® network capabilities or through an external Wi‑Fi® wireless network. To present content from desktop or laptop computers, users can choose to download the client software, use the AirMedia extension for the Google Chrome™ web browser, or leverage Miracast® screen mirroring technology (which is only compatible with Windows® 10 computers). For presenting content from Android™ and iOS® mobile devices, users can utilize the AirMedia app.

Multi-Source Presentation

With the AirMedia Canvas feature, multiple sources, up to a maximum of four, can be displayed simultaneously. This feature automatically determines the most optimal layout based on the number of active presenters, source types, and their respective aspect ratios to ensure maximum screen coverage. To manage the sources and their positions on the display, either the AirMedia app or a connected touch screen (which is sold separately) can be used.

Wireless Conferencing

Wireless conferencing elevates the collaboration experience by enabling video calls from a wide range of devices. The AirMedia application offers wireless connectivity to a variety of conferencing peripherals, such as soundbars, cameras, and speakerphones, providing users with a premium conferencing experience. These peripherals can be easily accessed from the user’s laptop and utilized in conjunction with popular software such as Microsoft Teams® and Zoom™.

Enhanced Onscreen Experience

When there is no source connected, the AM-3100-WF can display a customized welcome screen on the room display that provides simple instructions for connecting and presenting. By integrating with Microsoft Exchange Server® (for users of Outlook® and Microsoft 365® software), Google Calendar™, or Crestron Fusion® room scheduling software, the availability of the space and details of the upcoming meeting can be displayed on the screen. During the meeting, notifications will periodically appear to indicate the remaining time and the schedule of the next event. In the event of an emergency or for important announcements, pop-up messages sent from Crestron Fusion may also appear.

Add-on Control Options

To enable manual control of the AM-3100-WF, a 7-inch or 10-inch Crestron® TS- or TSW- 70 series touch screen can be added. This touch screen provides users with an additional view of the room schedule and meeting details, as well as controls for selecting input sources, powering the display on or off, adjusting display volume, and muting. Furthermore, by adding a Power over Ethernet occupancy sensor (CEN-ODT-C-POE), the display or digital signage can be controlled to power on or off based on room occupancy.

XiO Cloud® Provisioning and Management Service

The AM-3100-WF is fully compatible with the XiO Cloud service, which provides IT managers and installers with an efficient way to deploy and manage large numbers of devices. Through the XiO Cloud service, network management and provisioning can be conducted, and system alerts can be received, allowing for easier management of thousands of devices.

Native Appspace Functionality

By integrating the Appspace digital signage application with the AM-3100-WF, the display can present content from an Appspace digital signage channel whenever there is no ongoing presentation or when the room is unoccupied. This integration enhances the versatility of the AM-3100-WF by allowing it to double as a digital signage display.

Crestron Fusion Room Monitoring

The Crestron Fusion enterprise management service enables the centralized management and monitoring of presentation spaces. The AM-3100-WF can be integrated with the Crestron Fusion service, allowing users to manage and monitor the display from a central location. With the optional CEN-ODT-C-POE occupancy sensor, the AM-3100-WF can detect the presence of people in the space, automatically turning the display on and off as needed, and making unused spaces available for new bookings. Crestron Fusion software supports room scheduling and can integrate with a variety of third-party calendaring applications. The service also provides instant alerts to the help desk, facilitating rapid problem resolution and maximizing uptime and workflow.

Enterprise-Grade Security

The AirMedia Presentation System is a highly scalable enterprise-grade solution that can be easily deployed across hundreds of spaces using a web browser, Crestron Fusion, or XiO Cloud software. The system is equipped with standard network security protocols, including 802.1x network access control, Active Directory® authentication, and AES content encryption, ensuring compliance with your organization’s IT policies and protecting privacy.

Hybrid Wireless Connectivity with the AirMedia Adaptor

In addition to the software-based AirMedia wireless presentation, the AM-3100-WF is compatible with the AirMedia Connect Adaptor (AM-TX3-100) as an alternative. To connect to the AM-3100-WF, simply plug the adaptor into a personal device’s USB-C® port. The adaptor uses built-in Wi-Fi network capabilities to communicate wirelessly with the system, enabling content to be displayed up to a 4K30 resolution. During presentations, the content is scaled to the selected HDMI output resolution.
