How Do You Control Studio X in Teams Meetings?
When using Studio X with Microsoft Teams, you have a few options for controlling the meeting.
Poly TC8 is a dedicated 8” touch control with integrated stand. It displays the familiar Teams interface, which gives you a seamless experience and reduces learning time.
Your own touchscreen monitor can also work. However, we recommend that you double-check compatibility before purchase — because of the incredibly vast range of options, we are unable to list compatibility here.
The Poly Bluetooth remote control gives you wireless control without needing line-of-sight.
A Poly Trio conference phone can also control the Studio X series — this is currently a sandbox feature. More than that, you can now pair a Poly Trio conference phone with Microsoft Teams Rooms: Trio offers 360° audio pickup with crystal-clear audio quality, so for Teams video conferencing in medium to large conference rooms, you can combine the power of Trio and Studio X.
