UConn has worked with Dell to create a package deal, or “bundle”, on a room conferencing system. This bundle is an all-in-one conferencing system complete with a full Windows 11 computer, as well as, USB-C laptop connectivity. Review this guide to learn more about this bundle.

Monitor shown is the 75 inch model

ITS has designed this package deal with Dell and an AV vendor. This system reduces complexity and cost by 50%, when compared to our previous design.
Three equipment packages, which meet the university standards for quality and supportability, are offered and can be purchased from the Dell punch-out in HuskyBuy.

Please coordinate with ITS to schedule installation with a vendor.

Installation fees (labor) is an additional cost, pre-negotiated with our AV vendor. There are two price points: one for a new install ($400) and one that includes the removal of existing equipment ($800). These costs are subject to adjustment for extenuating circumstances. Please reach out to avt@uconn.edu for a quick consultation and/or demonstration of capabilities.

Departments must ensure there is a power outlet and a network outlet in the location of install. Reach out to Facilities to have an outlet installed and/or Network Infrastructure for a data jack, if one is not present.

FAQ

Just like your TV at home, this monitor comes with a remote. Users can use the remote to change the input of the monitor or adjust the volume. The remote can be used to access the entirety of the on-screen menu.

This monitor responds to a finger as well as the pen. This monitor supports the standard of a maximum of a 10-finger multitouch.

Note: The pen is magnetic and can be stored on the side of the monitor as shown below. The pen does not require batteries and has a replaceable tip.

This monitor has buttons that you can tap on the front of the screen. These buttons may be used in place of the remote and offer the same functionality.

Ellipses on Sides and Bottom of Screen

Side Ellipses: Drop Down

Clicking the two dots on either side of the monitor will drop the screen 1/3 of the way down. This makes the content at the top of the screen more accessible by bringing it closer to the bottom of the screen. While the screen is dropped down you will not be able to access the bottom 1/3 of the screen as it will not be shown. Clicking the two dots again will revert the screen back to the original position.

The distance the image lowers on the screen is adjustable using the monitor’s on-screen menu.

Bottom Ellipses: Control Launcher

You can access this menu by clicking the 3 dots at the bottom-center of the screen. The options in the Control Launcher offer similar functionality to buttons on the remote. The options on the Control Launcher are listed below (from left to right):

  • Turn off the screen temporarily (“Mute” the screen)

  • Freeze the screen

  • Drop down the screen so you can access the top

  • Change the color temperate

  • Change the input

  • Access the OSD menu

  • Close the Control Launcher

The power button is on the bottom side of the frame in the bottom right-hand corner of the monitor. There is an LED light visible from the front of the monitor above the power button.

Choose your input:

Tap on the triple-dots at the bottom of the monitor screen.

Next tap on the input button:

Then tap on the input you would like to view.
