A/V mounting solutions provider Chief announced it is bringing Da-Lite ViewShare technology to its Fusion display mounts. The new ViewShare Fusion kits include all the video conferencing accessories needed to create a bring-your-own-device video conferencing room, the company said.

ViewShare technology fills the gap between high-end video conferencing systems and personal smart devices, Chief said. The solution helps meet the increased need for face-to-face meetings in today's remote working environment.

"Our customers were looking for ways to quickly add video conferencing capabilities to huddle spaces and small meeting rooms," said Kathryn Gaskell, product manager for Chief, in the announcement. "ViewShare provides that option with the additional benefit of being easy to use."

All in one SKU, ViewShare kits feature:

• A Fusion-mountable accessory to position the integrated Logitech C930e Webcam above, below or between displays;
• A Jabra SPEAK 410 MS USB speakerphone;
• A Belkin powered USB hub;
• Easy USB 2.0 connectivity (USB 3.0 ready); and
• Components that are Skype for Business Certified, and optimized for Lync and Skype.

The accessory works with all the new Fusion fixed and tilt mounts as well as Fusion carts and stands. An extra-large version is available for bigger displays. The extender version includes a USB to CAT5 extender with power supply for installations requiring more cable reach. Da-Lite's ViewShare solutions can also be used for larger rooms.
