I have my laptop closed and two monitors connected, will this work with the laptop closed? I currently cannot use Lync to listen or talk on con calls.

I am using mine on a desktop and I would think you will have to enable settings to allow you to use the speaker when the lid is closed or computer is in sleep or hibernate mode.

It depends on how you have your laptop power settings configured. There is a setting in which you configure the laptop what to do when you close the lid. If it is set to go to sleep or hibernate then you will have applications that do not function. If you set it to do nothing everything should operate as normal.

I use mine with my laptop closed. I only have one monitor in use but that shouldn't matter it works fine with Lync on mine.

This plugs into USB and let's Lync use the Jabra as external speaker instead of your internal one in the laptop. So yes, it would work. Just check your power settings in windows that "closing the lid" doesn't disable anything and still keeps power to the USB.

Sorry, don't know. My unit is off and stached away. I tried 2 different units, and it works as long as you don't move your computer. Move it by a couple of feet and latency increase and speed drops in spite of a full bar signal. I don't recommend it.

Yes, I have a laptop and a desktop connected - I have disconnected the Laptop and the switch still works with the Desktop.

If your monitor is also a tv it probably would shut the monitor off. I don't know if your computer has remote on off Mostly it's fun when the video sales guy ignores you or you want to make your mother neighbors and friends batty. But note it doesn't work like your remote keyboard on off which is totally different

Well... Not quite. The laptop BT will not connect to this device: it's an either or deal - the headset connects to your Lync or Cisco, etc, via the USB then, your smartphone will connect to it via its BT, so that if you get a call to your cell number you can use the same headset and unplug it to walk around with it. I don't think the process you are wishing for is a reality yet.

I have never tried using it with one computer. If you only have one computer, why would you need a KVM switch? Try disconnecting the un-used port and see if it works.

It doesn't say that but it does work perfectly with Lync. I spend 3-6 hours per day on Lync calls using this.

We use 2 Monitors with it. One plugged into the HDMI the other via RGB extending or duplicating the desktops works as it should. All scenarios have worked so far so we have 3 screens essentially and it works a treat. Ours came with no software. We have installed 8.1 and Office 2010 and all works as it should.

I have mine connected to a laptop and it works fine. I do not know if it would work in a remote desktop connection or VNC session.

Rose, let me save you the time waiting for a Tech. support person- like I did! I was told that if the mic OR speaker jack is utilized, the monitor silences the speakers-since it assumes you are using a headset and doesn't want to receive feedback from the integrated 3 Watt speakers....... Hope this helps!

Yes you can. I use dual monitors with my docking station. One is connected to the laptop VGA or HDMI output and the other is connected to the dock. I keep my laptop closed and only use the monitors. One is set up as a mirror of the desktop. Hope this helps.

As far I know, this is only an external graphics Card that ports from your computer to another monitor. So you should be able to use it from another computer to the VA connection of your laptop to use the laptop as another monitor. So if the signal is coming into your laptop then you can record it.

I am currently using 2 of these along with my Lenovo laptop (total 3 screens) in my home office. The USB ports on the laptop did not have enough power to run both of them at the same time, so I used a powered USB hub that I already had. Works great as a 3 monitor setup.

We've used it for Lync and GoToMeeting. As long as you are connected to a USB outlet from your computer, the software used should not matter.

I have it connected to 4 different monitors. depending on the OS, you can mirror some of them or use them in independent mode.

Worked as plug and play for me. I have Windows 7. Use it for Lync audio. It did also work as a speaker to play back music and all other computer audio.
