BYOD — Bring Your Own Device

Meeting room design philosophy where users connect their personal laptop to the room AV system rather than using a dedicated room PC.

Key points:

  • Requires USB, HDMI, or wireless connectivity from the room system to the user's device
  • Often paired with BYOM (Bring Your Own Meeting) where the user runs their own conferencing app
  • Cable management and retraction systems important for user experience
  • USB-C has simplified BYOD — single cable for video, audio, and charging
