Biamp Modena Hub Service-Handbuch

Modena Hub is a wireless presentation hub

that supports versatility in modern working

environments. Ideal for Bring Your Own Device

(BYOD) and Bring Your Own Computer (BYOC)

spaces, Modena Hub allows participants to

connect to meeting room AV equipment and

USB accessories wirelessly. It also enables any

participant to wirelessly receive AV streams

during a video conferencing session.

This document is intended to guide network

administrators and IT teams in successfully

integrating a Modena Hub system within a

network environment.

General Network Requirements

The Modena system relies on stable and ecient

wireless connections and should be deployed on

a professional, enterprise-grade wireless network

to ensure optimal reliability/connectivity during

a meeting. Specic/recommended network

characteristics are as follows:

Corporate access point

• 802.11ac WiFi5 MU-MIMO 3x3 minimum

• Maximum of 20 active users per access point

The active users limit is valid under good

network conditions as specied under “Wireless

requirements” section below. Otherwise the

number of active users may be signicantly

reduced.

Modena Hub+ integrated access point

• Maximum of 12 active users

• Modena Hub+ access point works well in

ideal network conditions. In crowded Wi

environments, enterprise-grade external

access points are highly recommended.

• Avoid installing the Modena Hub+ directly

behind a TV display, as the display may

disrupt/shield the Wi signal.

A survey system (a Wi analyzing tool) should

be used to evaluate the interference level of the

Wi environment and identify the best channel

available in the network.

Connected Device Requirements

The following gives hardware and operating

requirements for connected devices:

Desktop & Laptop Computers

• Windows and MacOS

- Intel Core i5 - 6th Generation 4 cores

(minimum)

- Intel Core i7 - 7th Generation 4 cores

(recommended)

• Power Saving Disabled

• CPU workload must be below 75% when

running wireless presentation, wireless USB

and video-conference client.

• Capturing resolution may be reduced to

720p from the application settings to address

performance issues.

Tablets & Smartphones

• Android 8.0 minimum, with hardware

acceleration available.

• iPhone 8 or later

• iPad 5th generation or later

• iPad Pro 2nd generation or later

Wireless USB feature

Using an appropriate tool to measure network

performance is highly recommended. Modena

Hub has an iPerf3 server implementation on-

board that can be launched from the Advanced

section of the web admin (see below). iPerf3

is a widely used, cross-platform tool that

can produce standardized performance

measurements for any network, with free clients

available for all major platforms.

Device set up

Modena Hub can be congured from a standard

web browser by connecting to the hub IP

address and entering the web administration

(see Network connection diagrams). To enter the

web admin, navigate to the hub IP address, click

the three-dot menu on the top right of the page

and select the Admin menu item. The default

password is “admin”.

Wired Connection

In this conguration, the Modena Hub/Hub+ base unit is connected to the company LAN via its

Network port. Users connect to Modena via their devices that are connected to the corporate LAN.

These devices may be connected to the corporate LAN wirelessly or via Ethernet connection. Guest

access to Modena can be provided with guest access to the corporate LAN.

Access to Modena and any of its specic features will depend upon permissions granted to the user.

Wired Connection Set-Up

1. Connect Modena’s Network port to

the corporate LAN.

• Make sure the Modena has both

a pathway and access to an active

DHCP server on the network.

Modena is set to DHCP by default

and will need to obtain an IP

address from DHCP server.

2. Connect Modena’s power supply to

power on the unit.

• If power is already connected but

the unit is powered o, press and

release the Power button on the

front of the unit to turn it back

on.

3. Get the Modena’s IP address one of

the following methods:

• Connect a display to Modena’s

HDMI port. The device’s IP

address will be displayed on the

“Welcome” screen.

• Use a network tool to discover

what IP address has been

assigned to the device.

4. Type the device’s IP address into the

URL eld of a web browser to access

Modena’s web admin console.

Stand-Alone Mode (Modena Hub+ Only)

Modena may be congured to function in a ‘stand-alone mode,’ where the wired Network interface

port that would normally connect to the corporate LAN is disabled. Modena has no connection to the

Internet in this mode.

In this mode users can only connect to the system by connecting their device to the wireless access

point that comes built-in to Modena Hub+ models. They will be able to present to the display device

that is physically connected to Modena’s HDMI port and the device screens of any other users that

are connected to the same Modena system via Wi.

Modena’s stand-alone mode is a secure

presentation system isolated from both

the corporate LAN and the Internet.

Users do not have access to resources

hosted on the corporate network or

in a cloud server while connected to

the Modena system. Any presentation

materials required must be accessible on

the user’s local device.

Stand-Alone Mode Set-Up

1. Make sure Modena’s network port is

not plugged into a network.

2. Connect Modena’s power supply to

power on the unit.

• If power is already connected but

the unit is powered o, press and

release the Power button on the

front of the unit to turn it back on.

3. Open the wireless network settings

and connect to the Modena Hub+

network on the computer that

Modena will be congured. Factory

default settings are as follows:

• SSID: modenahub

• Security: WPA2

• Password: modenahub

4. Get Modena’s IP address on its wireless network. By default, this will be 10.3.2.1. If this setting

has changed, the current IP address can be found in two ways:

• Connect a display to Modena’s HDMI port. The device’s IP address will be displayed on the

“Welcome” screen.

• Use a network tool to discover what IP address has been assigned to the device.

5. Type the device’s IP address into the URL eld of a web browser to access Modena’s web admin

console.

Dual-network mode (Modena Hub+ only)

When congured for dual-network mode, both the wired Network interface port and the built-in

wireless access point will be functional. This allows corporate users to connect to Modena seamlessly

from their device’s regular corporate network connection, while guests can still access Modena via

WiFi without needing access to the corporate network.

This mode oers some degree of

exibility. By changing the “Share

mode” parameter in the Network

conguration page available in the

web admin, it may be congured

for an isolated, secure system or an

open, accessible system.

Share Mode Settings:

• None - both the wireless

access point and wired network

interface port will be active and

accessible to users but mutually

isolated from one another.

This means that guests can be

provided access to Modena

without being given any access

to the local corporate LAN or the

Internet. Company users can still

access their corporate network

resources during presentations

by connecting to Modena via the

corporate LAN.

• Routing + NAT - Modena Hub+

handles NAT between client

devices on its wireless network and the wired network interface port connected to the corporate

LAN. This allows devices connected to Modena’s wireless access point to access resources on the

corporate LAN as well as the Internet. There is no rewall between the wireless and wired subnets

in this conguration.

• Routing - Modena Hub+ routes trac between devices on its wireless network and the wired

network interface port connected to the corporate LAN, but it does not provide any NAT services.

There is no rewall between the wireless and wired subnets in this conguration. Trac between

the two subnets is handled by the corporate LAN’s routing tables.

• Bridge - Modena Hub+ will congure its WiFi access point as an extension of the corporate LAN

using the same IP address and subnet information as the wired network interface port. Client

devices connecting to Modena’s wireless access point will be virtually connecting to the corporate

LAN.
