For their corporate offices , Hawaiian Airlines recently installed 90 ArmorActive iPad Mini enclosures with Power over Ethernet (PoE) and with the EventBoard Pro conference room scheduling software.
"With our previous system, we didn't have an easy way to schedule ad-hoc meetings, and as a company, it was difficult for us to know the actual usage of our conference rooms," says Ron Anderson-Lehman, senior VP/CIO for Hawaiian Airlines. "The new version of EventBoard Pro allows us to do a better job of using space efficiently and effectively."
The selection of conference room scheduling apps is expanding, making a mobile based solution more accessible than ever. According to Salt Lake City-based ArmorActive, the EventBoard Pro platform, for example, is compatible with most major email calendar systems online, provides a simple user interface and does not require an IT department to install. The ease of installation and use saves significant costs on all fronts, the company said. Companies can even customize the appearance of this software to complement company branding or the aesthetic of their office.
ArmorActive's Door Frame iPad Mini enclosure houses an iPad Mini, PoE adapter and is designed to match anodized aluminum door frames common to most corporate offices. This new edition to ArmorActive's Metal Jacket iPad enclosure line maintains a reputation of the most secure and durable solution on the market, the company said. With a cable routing hole on the mounting edge, this enclosure also maintains a clean look for passing the Ethernet cable through the mounting surface into the iPad enclosure.
The PoE adapter converts 48 volts from the source to the 5 volts a tablet requires, providing compatibility with most tablets, including the iPad Air. According to the company, this reduces the expenses of high voltage electrical work and eliminates the hassle of charging the tablet at a separate location when not in use. Organizations using Android devices can also transfer data along with the power via the Ethernet cable with On The Go (OTG) technology.
Since the deployment of the iPad meeting room scheduling solutions for Hawaiian Airlines, ArmorActive has supplied iPad conference room scheduling systems for other large organizations, including Apple Inc. and Yale University, the company said.
