Webex Room 55 Teams compatibilty or external display

[baecker]

Dear Cisco Community,

My company has a Cisco Webex Room 55 which was used for conference calls.

Since then the company has moved to Microsoft Teams and also offices and the TV was kind of forgotten and only dusted off during a recent inventory control. We want to put it back into a conference room, but the move to Microsoft Teams might make it impossible.

I have already searched through the available product documentation, but I would like to double check whether I am missing something. Is there any way to make this product Microsoft Teams compatible? If not, is there any way to use the TV as an external display only?

Many thanks for your answers in advance!

The device can join Microsoft meetings using WebRTC through a web app, which requires the device to be either registered on-premises or with the Webex cloud.

For a native MTR experience, the device needs to be MTR supported. Unfortunately, this board isn’t. AFAIK, the screen can be used as an external display if you connect it via the HDMI input.

Could you tell me what on-premises registration means?

I have tried using screen mirroring on all of the HDMI ports, but with no success. Since moving to Microsoft Teams, the company has not renewed its Cisco subscription, so I wasn't even able to use the tablet which is accompanying the TV. Could you please confirm whether an active Cisco subscription is needed to operate the device?
