Share and display content instantaneously from any source
From a laptop, tablet or phone: Share your screen in real-time to another device; perfect for demonstrating software or sharing photos with friends.
From a USB drive: Plug it into the USB port on your teacher’s computer; it will appear as a drive letter in Windows Explorer (for example, E:\), allowing you to copy files directly onto the teacher’s computer.
From a web browser: You can also use any cloud storage service that supports WebDav as an alternative way of accessing and sharing files stored on your teacher’s PC.
Provide instant access to a central classroom control system
Q-NEX Cloud service allows you to provide instant access to a central classroom control system from any web browser, tablet, or smartphone. This centralized device management capability gives you the ability to control all devices in the field and in the classroom, as well as remotely troubleshoot devices that are not functioning properly. In addition, this centralized control of devices in the classroom can be expanded to include a school-wide solution with remote installation capabilities for large projects. Finally, Crestron’s XiO Cloud service can be expanded further still with multiple district-wide deployments that give administrators the ability to manage their entire network of classrooms and other facilities from one location using an intuitive web interface.
User preferences can be stored in the cloud or locally
Q-NEX Cloud service provides a single point of control and management for classroom devices. Centralizing all device management, monitoring, and updates in the cloud ensures that you can take control of their individual learning experience. If you prefer to keep things local, however, we offer Crestron Fusion™ Pro Software to give you all the same capabilities as our cloud-based solution.
Offering the user a simple way to take control of their individual learning experience
Q-NEX Cloud service is a cloud-based management platform that enables you to manage and monitor your devices remotely. The Crestron XiO Cloud service also provides a simple way to take control of your individual learning experience.
Device management and monitoring with Q-NEX service
Device settings and control can be centralized through the Q-NEX service. Administrators set up and manage devices within the cloud, while teachers in classrooms can use the corresponding software to view their class roster, monitor student device status, and control devices directly from their computers.
Centralized device management also means that IT can easily update settings across all rooms with just one click. Roll out new classroom layouts? Make it happen! Need to change copy-protection settings for your video content? Done.
In addition to centralized device management, Q-NEX supports centralized monitoring of all connected devices in real-time—so you’ll always know which ones are running smoothly or experiencing issues.
Simplify installation and setup, so your AV systems are ready when you need them
Q-NEX Cloud service is an easy-to-use, cloud-based software platform that allows you to manage and monitor your equipment from any location. Available on the Crestron website, it can be used free of charge by all Crestron customers.
Reduce maintenance costs by using Q-NEX Cloud service to centrally monitor, manage, and update devices in the field
With Q-NEX Cloud service, you can centrally monitor, manage, and update devices in the field. With this cloud-based software solution for device management (DM), you can design a system that is cost-effective to deploy and maintain. A single maintenance technician can remotely access multiple locations via the Internet or through a private network connection. The technician will have control of all systems and have visibility into which devices are operating correctly or need attention. You no longer need to rely on an onsite manager or technician to keep track of what needs maintenance because everything will be managed offsite by your personnel in real time!
Q-NEX is the world’s leader in AV control solutions for education environments. We design intuitive classroom technologies to help maximize student engagement. From single classrooms to entire school districts, we offer solutions to simplify operations and enhance the learning experience.
