The introduction of wireless devices is one of the biggest steps that technology has taken the past few years. Getting rid of cables helped to have a more functional office as well as a smoother use of technology. This might be the reasons many companies are more inclined to upgrade their technological settings with wireless tools, clouds, and digital signage solutions. A Danish company called Airtame has come forward with their innovative wireless screen mirroring technology and help to provide solutions for the development of office computer facilities.

And secondly, the dongle is also very discreet and will not influence the design of your office. Compatibility and support
Another great advantage of Airtame is its compatibility with many different systems which make it very flexible to use. While iOS and MacOS, as well as Airplay, can be used without any issue, and all the recent versions of Windows are also very compatible with the device. However, even if Linux and Android can be compatible to some extent, the Airtame team is still looking into improving the results obtained while pairing those systems with the dongle.
