The expected behavior of Wired RoomDock on the ClickShare CB Pro depends on the cable connection, the USB Type used and laptop support of DP alt. mode.
Using a direct connection
- Connect USB Type-C port on laptop to Type-C (DP Input) port on the CB Pro.
- The laptop can access the ClickShare camera/microphone/speaker from the CB Pro.
- If laptop supports DP alt. mode (and cable supports DP alt mode1), laptop can also output content to CB Pro as extension display (exclusive mode).
- Other Button or App users can no longer wireless share video/audio to the CB Pro (existing sharing sessions will be interrupted).
- Once the laptop user disables the extension display, other Button or App users can continue to wireless share video/audio to the CB Pro.
- If laptop does not support DP alt. mode (or cable does not support DP alt mode1), the laptop cannot output the laptop content to the CB Pro thru USB.
- Other Button or App users can continue to wireless share video/audio to the CB Pro.
- (USBA support was removed from 2.20 onwards) Connect USB Type-A port on laptop to Type-C (DP Input) port on the CB Pro.
- The laptop can access the ClickShare camera/microphone/speaker from the CB Pro.
- The laptop cannot output the laptop content to the CB Pro thru USB as DP alt. mode is not supported in this configuration.
- Other Button or App users can continue to wireless share video/audio to the CB Pro.

- The laptop can also output content to CB Pro as extension display (exclusive mode).
- Other Button or App users can no longer wireless share video/audio to the CB Pro (existing sharing sessions will be interrupted).
- Connect USB Type-C port & HDMI port on laptop to female ports on the converter kit, then connect Type-C male port of the converter kit to Type-C (DP Input) port on CB Pro.
