USB Audio/Video Bar Mode Enhancements

When USB Audio/Video Bar Mode is active, you can use an Avaya CU360 device as your laptop's
external USB camera, microphone, and speaker.
With USB Bar Mode, users can run their pref erred unif ied communication/video conf erencing
application on their computer and use the device's embedded camera and audio in/out f or their
meetings.
You can activate USB Bar Mode "on the f ly" (manually via the remote control or the web interf ace),
once your computer is connected, or you can also setup the CU360 to be always in USB Bar
Mode.
In this case, you just connect your computer and start using the CU360 audio/video perip herals,.

Connect a Computer to CU360 for USB Bar Mode

Your computer needs to be connected to the CU360 device through a USB 3.0 cable (connected
to CU360 type-C port) to use the CU360 in USB Bar mode.
On the computer side, you can connect the cable to a type-A USB 3.0 or type-C port.
The computer acts as USB Host and the CU360 acts as gadget/device, allowing the computer to
see the CU360's peripherals as its own USB resources (camera, audio mic and speaker).
