Product Overview
The Mersive Solstice Pod Gen3 SP-8100-E5-AL is an education wireless collaboration Pod designed for classrooms, seminar rooms, and corporate training environments where up to 4 simultaneous users need to share content wirelessly. This bundle includes the Solstice Pod Gen3 hardware, an SGE Enterprise license (4 simultaneous users), and a 5-year Active Learning subscription, providing a complete instructor display routing system at a price point suited to smaller learning spaces. The Solstice Active Learning classroom feature set enables instructors to manage screen sharing sessions from a centralized dashboard, route student screens to the main display, and track audience engagement. As a classroom wireless presentation system, it supports BYOD connectivity across Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android devices with no dependency on a single operating system.
Product Description

The SP-8100-E5-AL pairs the Mersive Solstice Pod Gen3 hardware with an SGE Enterprise license and a 5-year Active Learning subscription, delivering a full-featured higher education AV wireless solution for rooms where up to 4 participants need to share content simultaneously. The SGE Enterprise license is well matched to seminar rooms, breakout spaces, and training rooms where a defined group of instructors and students present content, rather than open-ended large-scale deployments. Active Learning extends the standard Solstice feature set with instructor-specific controls: push any connected student's screen to the main room display, route content to specific student screens for peer review, enable real-time student annotation on shared content, and access the Active Learning API for audience engagement tracking and LMS integration with platforms such as Canvas, Blackboard, and Moodle. This 5-year Active Learning purchase includes a perpetual right to use the Solstice Active Learning API for the life of the Pod, ensuring that institutional integrations built on the API remain functional beyond the subscription term. BYOD connectivity supports Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android natively, with AirPlay and Miracast support for additional flexibility. Solstice Cloud provides centralized IT management for configuration, monitoring, and firmware updates across multi-room campus deployments. Solstice Conference integration connects the Pod with USB video conferencing peripherals, supporting hybrid room configurations. The 5-year limited hardware warranty aligns with the subscription term, providing consistent coverage across the deployment lifecycle. A power supply (12VDC/2A) and HDMI cable are sold separately.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the Solstice Active Learning Subscription and what does it include?
The Solstice Active Learning Subscription is a software add-on that enables instructor-led classroom collaboration features on the Solstice Pod. It includes instructor screen routing, student annotation tools for shared content, and access to the Active Learning API for audience engagement tracking and LMS integration. The subscription term for this product is 5 years.
Q: What does the perpetual Active Learning API right included with the 5-year purchase mean in practice?
Purchasing the SP-8100-E5-AL grants a perpetual right to use the Solstice Active Learning API for the life of the Pod hardware, even after the 5-year subscription period ends. Any LMS integrations or custom applications your institution builds using the API will continue to operate beyond the subscription term, protecting your development and integration investment.
Q: What is the difference between SGE Enterprise and Unlimited Enterprise for Active Learning deployments?
The SGE Enterprise license (this product) supports up to 4 simultaneous connected users, making it appropriate for seminar rooms, breakout spaces, and training rooms with a defined group of presenters. The Unlimited Enterprise license removes the user cap entirely, suiting large lecture halls or open collaboration spaces where any number of participants may connect. Both license tiers provide access to the full Active Learning feature set when paired with an Active Learning subscription.
Q: Does the hardware warranty term match the subscription term?
Yes. The SP-8100-E5-AL includes a 5-year limited hardware warranty that matches the 5-year Active Learning subscription, providing aligned software and hardware coverage for the full deployment term.
Q: How does instructor screen routing work in a classroom setting?
With Active Learning enabled, the instructor accesses the Solstice Active Learning dashboard on their device. All connected student devices are visible in the dashboard. The instructor can select any student's shared screen and route it to the main room display, or direct it to specific student screens for peer review exercises, without physically accessing each device.
Q: Can the Solstice Active Learning API integrate with LMS platforms such as Canvas, Blackboard, or Moodle?
Yes. The Active Learning API provides endpoints for engagement and attention tracking data that institutional developers can connect to LMS platforms or custom applications. Mersive provides API documentation to support integration development. The perpetual API right included with the 5-year purchase ensures these integrations remain operational for the life of the Pod hardware.
Q: Are a power supply and HDMI cable included with the SP-8100-E5-AL?
No. A power supply (12VDC/2A) and HDMI cable are sold separately. Please plan for compatible accessories as part of your room deployment. Contact sales@creationnetworks.net for accessory guidance or bundle pricing.
Q: What network infrastructure is required for classroom deployment?
The Solstice Pod Gen3 supports wired Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbps via RJ45) and 802.11ac dual-band Wi-Fi. For high-density classrooms, a wired Ethernet connection to a managed switch is recommended for the Pod itself. The Pod supports WPA2-Enterprise (802.1x) with RADIUS, compatible with standard campus network security policies. Adequate wireless AP coverage is needed if participant devices connect over Wi-Fi.
