Extron just announced a collaboration with Yealink to create simple control and collaboration solutions for UCC workspaces. With these scalable solutions, Extron is integrating room automation, audio and signal extension capabilities with the Yealink MCore Mini-PC, Microsoft Teams Rooms and Zoom Rooms solutions. Its collaboration with Yealink brings Extron AV and room control capabilities to the Yealink MCore Mini-PC, providing complete AV and conferencing control across the enterprise. Now, a tap on the Yealink MTouch II Touch Panel can control call volume for the room as well as send commands that trigger automation events for display control, shades, lighting and more.

As part of this conferencing, control and automation ecosystem, occupancy sensors can also be added to automate system power to turn on displays when participants enter a room and turn them off when the room is empty.
