1 Introduction
Welcome to the Intel® Unite™ Standalone Setup Guide. Intel Unite modernizes meeting spaces for a better way to
work, with a simple application, you can create an innovative conference space anywhere a display is located,
allowing functionality, communication, and flexibility while incorporating business needs.
Intel® Unite™ Standalone was designed for use by Small Business Professionals, where there is no a dedicated IT
department, little to no networking or computer security knowledge is needed.
Businesses using Intel Unite Standalone is recommended for up to 25 users, in no more than 5 conference rooms
or simultaneous sessions, (recommendation: 25 users and 5 conference rooms).
1.1 Intel Unite Terminology
Through this setup guide the following terms will be used:
Client – Client software installed on a client system and connects to a hub
Hub – a system that is displaying a PIN and hosting plugins as in a conference room display
IP Address – Internet Protocol Address
Plugin – a software component installed on a hub that surfaces additional functionality
Flat Network - a network in which all stations can reach other without going through any intermediary hardware
devices, such as a bridge or router
Shared key – it refers to a key that would be shared among participants in Intel Unite sessions. Only Intel Unite Hubs
and Clients that use the same shared key will be able to participate in collaboration sessions
1.2 Intel Unite Overview
Intel Unite software is designed to allow fast wireless screen sharing and collaboration in few steps:
Get to a display where Intel Unite is installed
Launch the client application in your device
Enter the Shared Key provided by the Administrator
Enter the PIN number displayed in the Hub to connect to a specific session
Once you are connected , click ‘Share’ to display content
Intel Unite uses a non-touch display and can support any size monitor. User interaction is limited to wireless display
but includes easy connection via PIN entry and easy handover between presenters.
Once Intel Unite has been installed, the Hub creates its own WiFi hotspot, displaying the instructions for the clients
to connect to this hotspot. The Intel Unite Software should be downloaded in each client that connects to the Intel
Unite session.

2. WWLAN infrastructure bandwidth optimization through avoiding the room system to access point WLAN
traffic

APPENDIX A
Help Guide to Configure Firewall Settings
Users need to ensure the operating system firewalls have exceptions in place for Intel Unite.exe (both TCP and
UDP). A firewall exception has to be configured for Intel Unite.exe to allow UDP and TCP ports that are bound to
the application.
This section is a guide to help configure firewall settings to allow Intel Unite application on the end user system.
The three sub-sections have instructions on how to allow Intel Unite application on an end user system running
Windows Firewall, McAfee Host Intrusion Prevention and Symantec Endpoint Protection agents respectively.
