Kindermann Klick&Show

Kindermann Klick&Show Buying Guide 2026

The right system in two steps. If you only want to share your screen, the K-40 is enough – the entry-level base station for BYOD. If your needs grow towards hybrid meetings with room technology (BYOM), K-FleX is the flexible choice: started as a BYOD system, it can be expanded to BYOM with a license key. If the room needs two screens, two cameras, and professional AV connectivity (PoE+, RS232, GPI) from the outset, K-FX Plus is the flagship.

Which Klick&Show system is right for which application?

Kindermann offers Klick&Show in three levels. The first axis is the application (presenting or conferencing), the second is the level of connectivity. Two terms appear again and again: BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) means you only share the image of your own device on the large screen. BYOM (Bring Your Own Meeting) goes one step further – your laptop brings the conference software and uses the room's camera, microphone, and speakers.

In short: The more capable your room should be, from simple sharing to full video conferencing, the higher the level. If you already know whether your room needs only BYOD or also BYOM, select K-40, K-FleX, or K-FX Plus directly above.

Note on Touchback (for all three systems): The shared image can be operated and annotated directly on the screen with a touch. This requires an interactive touch display – it will not work on a regular monitor. See it first, then roll it out? Before equipping several rooms, you probably want to experience Klick&Show in your own setup. Describe your use case to us – we will find a way together so you can get a feel for it. Describe use case

Do I need the Klick&Show app?

For pure sharing, you do not need an app. You connect one of the Kindermann transmitters with an HDMI or USB-C connection to your laptop, press the Show button – and you are presenting, completely without software installation. Your laptop treats the transmitter as a second screen.

The Klick&Show app for Windows and macOS expands the system beyond pure sharing: BYOM video conferencing with room camera and audio, USB conferencing, low-latency mouse control, as well as whiteboarding and annotation. Without a transmitter, it can also be shared natively via AirPlay, Miracast, or Google Cast on the same network.

For IT administration: If a strictly secured environment fundamentally blocks software installations, the IT department can centrally release the Klick&Show app once – pure sharing via transmitter runs without installation anyway.

BYOM: Use the room camera and room audio in your own meeting

K-FleX and K-FX Plus offer this BYOM function: You run the video conference with your own account in Teams, Zoom, Webex, or Google Meet via the room camera and room audio instead of the laptop webcam.

With K-FleX, BYOM is optional: The base station starts as a pure BYOD system, a BYOM license key unlocks the conference function later when the need arises. K-FX Plus comes with BYOM out of the box and switches up to two cameras via the USB device hub (Dual Cam).

With BYOM, the room technology comes into play: K-FleX and K-FX Plus are compatible with common USB conference cameras, video/soundbars, and speakerphones with professional echo cancellation (AEC). Kindermann maintains the complete compatibility list. You will find suitable conference room cameras with us; we will clarify in the consultation which one is right for your Klick&Show system.

Transmitter and accessories

Two WLAN transmitters are available for data transmission to the base station, which you can simply connect to your laptop: the 4K HDMI transmitter for devices with an HDMI output and the 4K USB-C transmitter for laptops with a USB-C port capable of DisplayPort Alternate Mode. Both transmit at up to 4K resolution.

Complementary accessories round off the setup: If several people present alternately, a storage tray for up to four transmitters keeps the devices ready at hand on the table. With K-40, Miracast can additionally be retrofitted via a Miracast WiFi dongle, if native Miracast connections without a transmitter are required. For the USB-C transmitter, there is also a Type-C protective cap for safe transport.

K-FleX and K-FX Plus also come with an HDMI input on the base station: This allows, for example, a permanently installed room PC or a document camera to be connected via cable and displayed via the same base station – without its own transmitter.

Central management for AV integrators

Klick&Show is preconfigured and ready to use immediately, but can also be deeply integrated into the corporate network: All three systems support control via web GUI, Telnet, and RS232, as well as central fleet management via the Kindermann ManageTool. K-FleX and K-FX Plus also come with Power-over-Ethernet (K-FX Plus: PoE+ and two GPI contacts for integration into room controls). This allows the entire Klick&Show fleet to be monitored and updated from a central location for educational institutions and companies with many rooms.

Digital Signage: Use the display outside of meetings as well

All three Klick&Show systems come with a simple digital signage function: Outside of meetings, the connected displays can show information or web content instead of remaining black and unused – practical for conference rooms, reception areas, and teaching rooms.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How do I connect Klick&Show to the projector?

You connect the Klick&Show base station to the projector or display via HDMI and supply it with power. Then you connect a transmitter to the USB port of your laptop and press the Show button – the image appears on the screen. Alternatively, you send it without a transmitter via AirPlay, Miracast, or Google Cast on the same network.

Do I need an app for Klick&Show?

For pure sharing, no: The transmitter runs directly from the device, without prior installation. The Klick&Show app for Windows and macOS is only needed for BYOM video conferencing, USB conferencing, whiteboarding, and annotation. AirPlay, Miracast, and Google Cast also work without an app.

Does Klick&Show work with Mac and Windows?

Yes, Klick&Show supports Windows and Mac devices. With a transmitter, you present platform-independently, completely without native protocols. Without a transmitter, Windows devices mirror natively via Miracast using Windows Key + K, Apple devices via AirPlay – under macOS, screen recording permission is required once for this, otherwise the image remains black.

What is the difference between K-40, K-FleX, and K-FX Plus?

K-40 is for wireless presenting (BYOD), K-FleX for BYOD with optional BYOM retrofitting via license key, and K-FX Plus for large hybrid conference rooms with a dual-screen and dual-camera setup.

Is there an alternative to Kindermann Klick&Show?

Yes. Barco ClickShare and BenQ InstaShow perform the same task (wireless presenting without fixed cabling), but have different focuses: ClickShare is considered the market standard with an optional app-based zero-install button, InstaShow is completely hardware-based and does not need an app at all. Klick&Show scores with the deepest AV integration (PoE, RS232, GPI, central fleet management), an advantage especially for AV installers and educational institutions with many rooms. You can find a brand comparison in the overview Wireless Presentation.

How many people can present at the same time?

In split-screen, Klick&Show displays up to four sources simultaneously on one screen (K-40 and K-FleX). The flagship K-FX Plus displays up to 4+1 sources on two screens via its second HDMI output. Significantly more devices can be connected to the base station – so the presentation switches from person to person without replugging.

Is Klick&Show suitable for educational institutions?

Yes. Platform-independent operation, central fleet management via the Kindermann ManageTool, as well as whiteboarding and annotation, make Klick&Show a widely used system in schools and universities – complemented by the digital signage function for notices outside of class.
