Product Overview
The Mersive Solstice Pod Gen3 SP-8000-E1-AL is a classroom wireless presentation system that pairs the Solstice Pod Gen3 hardware with an Unlimited Enterprise license and a 1-year Active Learning subscription, providing a full-featured Solstice Active Learning classroom deployment at a lower initial commitment for institutions evaluating the platform. The Unlimited Enterprise license supports an unlimited number of simultaneous connected users, making this education wireless collaboration Pod appropriate for large lecture halls and open classroom environments where participant headcount is variable. The 1-year Active Learning subscription delivers instructor routing, student annotation tools, and Active Learning API access for the first year of deployment, with subscription renewal available thereafter. The product includes a 1-year limited hardware warranty, aligning hardware and software coverage for the initial deployment term.
Product Description
The SP-8000-E1-AL delivers the Mersive Solstice Pod Gen3 hardware with an Unlimited Enterprise software license and a 1-year Active Learning subscription, offering a cost-effective entry point for institutions deploying the Mersive Solstice Active Learning classroom platform for the first time or on a pilot basis. The Unlimited Enterprise license places no cap on simultaneous connected users, which is important for lecture halls and large classrooms where participation numbers are not fixed. During the 1-year Active Learning subscription term, instructors gain access to screen routing controls that allow pushing any student's shared screen to the main display or directing it to specific student screens, student annotation tools for real-time markup of shared content, and the Active Learning API for audience engagement tracking and LMS integration with platforms such as Canvas, Blackboard, and Moodle. BYOD connectivity supports Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android via the Solstice app, with AirPlay and Miracast for additional device compatibility. Solstice Cloud provides IT administrators with centralized management for configuration, monitoring, and firmware updates across multi-room deployments. Solstice Conference integration connects the Pod with USB video conferencing peripherals for hybrid classroom configurations. The 1-year limited hardware warranty matches the subscription term; institutions planning longer deployments should evaluate the 3-year (SP-8000-E3-AL) or 5-year (SP-8000-E5-AL) bundles for better long-term value. A power supply (12VDC/2A) and HDMI cable are sold separately. For procurement inquiries or volume pricing, contact sales@creationnetworks.net.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the Solstice Active Learning Subscription and what does it include?
The Solstice Active Learning Subscription adds instructor-led classroom collaboration features to the Solstice Pod, including instructor screen routing (push any student's screen to the main display or specific student screens), 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 1 year, renewable at expiration.
Q: Does the 1-year purchase include a perpetual Active Learning API right?
No. The perpetual right to use the Solstice Active Learning API for the life of the Pod hardware is specific to the 5-year Active Learning purchase. The 1-year subscription (this product) includes API access during the 1-year subscription term only. Institutions requiring a longer initial commitment or perpetual API access should consider the SP-8000-E3-AL (3-year) or SP-8000-E5-AL (5-year) bundles.
Q: What is the difference between Unlimited Enterprise and SGE Enterprise for Active Learning deployments?
The Unlimited Enterprise license (this product) supports an unlimited number of simultaneous connected users, appropriate for large lecture halls and open collaboration spaces. The SGE Enterprise license supports up to 4 simultaneous users, suited to seminar rooms and smaller training environments. Both tiers support 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-8000-E1-AL includes a 1-year limited hardware warranty that aligns with the 1-year Active Learning subscription, providing matched coverage for the initial deployment term. Extended coverage is available by selecting the 3-year or 5-year bundle at time of purchase.
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 appear in the dashboard. The instructor can select any student's shared screen and push it to the main room display or direct it to specific student screens for peer review, without physically accessing any 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 that institutional developers can integrate with LMS platforms or custom applications using Mersive's API documentation. API access is included for the duration of the 1-year subscription term.
Q: Are a power supply and HDMI cable included with the SP-8000-E1-AL?
No. A power supply (12VDC/2A) and HDMI cable are sold separately and are not included in the box. Contact sales@creationnetworks.net for accessory recommendations or bundle pricing.

The Solstice Pod Gen3 supports wired Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbps via RJ45) and 802.11ac dual-band Wi-Fi. A wired Ethernet connection to a managed switch is recommended for the Pod in high-density classrooms.
