Zoom Rooms Scheduling Display and Scheduler License

Updated

A Zoom Rooms Scheduling Display is a touch panel mounted outside a meeting room that shows whether the room is free and lets people book it on the spot. It runs the Zoom Rooms app in scheduling display mode and is tied to a Zoom Room in your account. Zoom's documentation states that a Zoom Rooms license covers scheduling displays for that room, so you don't normally need a separate license for a panel paired with a licensed Zoom Room. Check with Zoom if you want a panel for a space that has no Zoom Room, since Zoom sells workspace reservation products for that case.

Zoom Rooms Scheduling Display and Scheduler License
A Zoom Rooms Scheduling Display is a panel outside a room that shows availability and lets people book it. Licensing, supported panels and how to set one up.

What a scheduling display does

  • Shows the room name and status (available, busy, upcoming meeting).
  • Lists the day's meetings from the room's calendar.
  • Lets people book the room for an ad-hoc meeting.
  • Supports check-in and auto-release of no-show bookings, where enabled.
  • Can show LED status lights on panels that have them.

Licensing

Supported panels

Zoom supports iPads and Android tablets running the Zoom Rooms app, plus purpose-built PoE room panels from hardware partners:

Panel Screen Notes
Logitech Tap Scheduler 10.1 in PoE, LED status lights, Teams and Zoom
Neat Pad Gen 2 8 in Works as a controller or scheduler
Neat Pad Pro 10.1 in Controller or scheduler

Yealink RoomPanel E2 8 in Android scheduling panel with LED
Yealink RoomPanel Plus E2 10.1 in Larger scheduling panel
AVer CP10 G2 10.1 in Controller or scheduler

Purpose-built panels are easier to deploy than tablets: one PoE cable, a wall mount, LED status lights, and no battery to manage. Check Zoom Rooms certified hardware for the current list.

How to set up a scheduling display

  1. Make sure the room exists in the Zoom web portal and has a calendar resource linked. See Zoom Rooms admin portal and calendar integration.
  2. Mount the panel outside the room and connect it to a PoE switch port (or power and Wi-Fi for a tablet).
  3. On the panel, choose Zoom Rooms and the scheduling display mode. On a tablet, install the Zoom Rooms app.
  4. Sign in with the room's activation code, or with admin credentials and select the room.
  5. Configure check-in, auto-release and display options in the room's settings in the web portal.

Mounting tips

  • Mount at a consistent height beside the door so it's easy to read and reach; follow ADA reach-range guidance in the US.
  • Use glass mounts for glass walls; plan cable routing before the wall is finished.
  • Put the panel where people walking by can see the status light.
