Swarm Implementation Guide

This document outlines the necessary equipment and a pre-implementation checklist required for setting up your studio effectively. Please ensure that all items are prepared prior to the implementation phase to facilitate a smooth installation process.

To successfully set up your studio, the following equipment is required:

• Receivers (WASP or USB)

• Apple TV

• Apple Watch Receiver (if opting to use Apple Watches in the studio)

• HDMI Cable – Ensure the cable is long enough to reach between the Apple TV and the TV.

• HDMI Splitter – Required if mirroring to multiple screens.

• TV

• Power over Ethernet (PoE) Port (relevant to only WASP Receiver)

  • The port must supply Power over Ethernet (PoE) to connected devices.

  • If PoE is unavailable or not functioning, the device should have a power injector to switch to an alternative power source (e.g., an external power adapter).
