2020-3-6 Some older Microsoft devices are no longer supported in the latest Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center. However, they're still supported by an older version of Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center 2.3 on Windows 7, or the earlier version IntelliPoint 8.2 and IntelliType Pro 8.2 software on Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP. When you use MDT to deploy Windows 10 to Surface laptops, you need to import keyboard drivers to use in the. This article addresses a deployment approach that uses Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT). Supported to add Surface Laptop 2 and Surface Laptop 3 keyboard drivers in the same Windows PE boot instance due to a driver conflict; use.
You can connect other devices to your Microsoft Surface Hub to display content. This topic describes the Guest Mode, Replacement PC Mode, and Video Out functionality available through wired connections, and also lists accessories that you can connect to Surface Hub using Bluetooth.
Note
Surface Hub will use the video input that you select until a new connection is made, the existing connection is disrupted, or the Connect App is closed.
Which method should I choose?
When connecting external devices and displays to a Surface Hub, there are several available options. The method you use will depend upon your scenario and needs.
When you want to: | Use this method: |
---|---|
Mirror the Surface Hub's display on another device. | Video Out |
Present another device's display on the Surface Hub screen and interact with both the device's content and the built-in Surface Hub experience. | Guest Mode |
Power the Surface Hub from an external Windows 10 PC, turning off the embedded computer of the Surface Hub. Cameras, microphones, speakers, and other peripherals, are sent to the external PC, in addition to pen and touch. | Replacement PC Mode |
Guest Mode
Guest Mode uses a wired connection, so people can display content from their devices to the Surface Hub. If the source device is Windows-based, that device can also provide Touchback and Inkback. Surface Hub's internal PC takes video and audio from the connected device and presents them on the Surface Hub. If Surface Hub encounters a High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) signal, the source will be displayed as a black image. To display your content without violating HDCP requirements, use the keypad on the right side of the Surface Hub to directly choose the external source.
Note
When an HDCP source is connected, use the side keypad to change source inputs.

Guest Mode connectivity
Your choice of video cable will be determined by what is available from your source input. The Surface Hub has three choices of video input: DisplayPort, HDMI, and VGA. See the following chart for available resolutions.
Signal Type | Resolution | Frame rate | HDMI - RGB | DisplayPort | VGA |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
PC | 640 x 480 | 59.94/60 | X | X | X |
PC | 720 x 480 | 59.94/60 | X | X | |
PC | 1024 x 768 | 60 | X | X | X |
HDTV | 720p | 59.94/60 | X | X | X |
HDTV | 1080p | 59.94/60 | X | X | X |
Source audio is provided by DisplayPort and HDMI cables. If you must use VGA, Surface Hub has an audio input port that uses a 3.5 mm plug. Surface Hub also uses a USB cable that provides Touchback and Inkback from the Surface Hub to compatible Windows 10 devices. The USB cable can be used with any video input that is already connected with a cable.
Someone using Guest Mode to connect a PC would use one of these options:
DisplayPort -- DisplayPort cable and USB 2.0 cable
HDMI -- HDMI cable and USB 2.0 cable
VGA -- VGA cable, 3.5 mm audio cable, and USB 2.0 cable
If the computer you are using for Guest Mode is not compatible with Touchback and Inkback, then you won't need the USB cable.
Replacement PC Mode
In Replacement PC Mode, the embedded computer of the Surface Hub is turned off and an external PC is connected to the Surface Hub. Connections to replacement PC ports give access to key peripherals on the Surface Hub, including the screen, pen, and touch features. This does mean that your Surface Hub won’t have the benefit of the Windows Team experience, but you will have the flexibility offered by providing and managing your own Windows computer.
Software requirements
You can run Surface Hub in Replacement PC Mode with 64-bit versions of Windows 10 Home, Windows 10 Pro, and Windows 10 Enterprise. You can download the Surface Hub Replacement PC driver package from the Microsoft Download Center. We recommend that you install these drivers on any computer you plan to use as a replacement PC.
Hardware requirements
Surface Hub is compatible with a range of hardware. Choose the processor and memory confirmation for your replacement PC so that it supports the programs you'll be using. Your replacement PC hardware needs to support 64-bit versions of Windows 10.
Graphics adapter
In Replacement PC Mode, Surface Hub supports any graphics adapter that can produce a DisplayPort signal. You'll improve your experience with a graphics adapter that can match Surface Hub's resolution and refresh rate. For example, the best and recommended replacement PC experience on the Surface Hub is with a 120Hz video signal.
55' Surface Hubs - For best experience, use a graphics card capable of 1080p resolution at 120Hz.
84' Surface Hubs - For best experience, use a graphics card capable of outputting four DisplayPort 1.2 streams to produce 2160p at 120Hz (3840 x 2160 at 120Hz vertical refresh). We've verified that this works with the NVIDIA Quadro K2200, NVIDIA Quadro K4200, NVIDIA Quadro M6000, AMD FirePro W5100, AMD FirePro W7100, and AMD FirePro W9100. These are not the only graphics cards - others are available from other vendors.

Cables
Both the 55” and 84” Surface Hub devices have been tested to work with Certified DisplayPort and HDMI cables. While vendors do sell longer cables that may work with the Surface Hub, only those cables that have been certified by testing labs are certain to work with the Hub. For example, DisplayPort cables are certified only up to 3 meters, however many vendors sell cables that are 3 times that length. If a long cable is necessary, we strongly suggest using HDMI. HDMI has many cost-effective solutions for long-haul cables, including the use of repeaters. Nearly every DisplayPort source will automatically switch to HDMI signaling if a HDMI sink is detected.
Bluetooth accessories
You can connect the following accessories to Surface Hub using Bluetooth:
- Mice
- Keyboards
- Headsets
- Speakers
Note
After you connect a Bluetooth headset or speaker, you might need to change the default microphone and speaker settings.
-->How you manage Surface driver and firmware updates varies depending on your environment and organizational requirements. On Surface devices, firmware is exposed to the operating system as a driver and is visible in Device Manager, enabling device firmware and drivers to be automatically updated using Windows Update or Windows Update for Business. Although this simplified approach may be feasible for startups and small or medium-sized businesses, larger organizations typically need IT admins to distribute updates internally. This may involve comprehensive planning, application compatibility testing, piloting and validating updates, before final approval and distribution across the network.
Note
This article is intended for technical support agents and IT professionals and applies to Surface devices only. If you're looking for help to install Surface updates or firmware on a home device, see Update Surface firmware and Windows 10.
While enterprise-grade software distribution solutions continue to evolve, the business rationale for centrally managing updates remains the same: Maintain the security of Surface devices and keep them updated with the latest operating system and feature improvements. This is essential for sustaining a stable production environment and ensuring users aren't blocked from being productive. This article provides an overview of recommended tools and processes for larger organizations to accomplish these goals.
Central update management in commercial environments
Microsoft has streamlined tools for managing devices – including driver and firmware updates -- into a single unified experience called Microsoft Endpoint Manager admin center accessed from devicemanagement.microsoft.com.
Manage updates with Configuration Manager and Intune
Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager allows you to synchronize and deploy Surface firmware and driver updates with the Configuration Manager client. Integration with Microsoft Intune lets you see all your managed, co-managed, and partner-managed devices in one place. This is the recommended solution for large organizations to manage Surface updates.
For detailed steps, see the following resources:
- Deploy applications with Configuration Manager.
Manage updates with Microsoft Deployment Toolkit
Included in Endpoint Configuration Manager, the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) contains optional deployment tools that you may wish to use depending on your environment. These include the Windows Assessment and Deployment Kit (Windows ADK), Windows System Image Manager (Windows SIM), Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM), and User State Migration Tool (USMT). You can download the latest version of MDT from the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit download page.
For detailed steps, see the following resources:
Surface driver and firmware updates are packaged as Windows Installer (*.msi) files. To deploy these Windows Installer packages, you can use Endpoint Configuration Manager or MDT. For information about selecting the correct .msi file for a device and operating system, refer to the guidance below about downloading .msi files.
For instructions on how to deploy updates by using Endpoint Configuration Manager refer to Deploy applications with Configuration Manager. For instructions on how to deploy updates by using MDT, see Deploy a Windows 10 image using MDT.
WindowsPE and Surface firmware and drivers
Endpoint Configuration Manager and MDT both use the Windows Preinstallation Environment (WindowsPE) during the deployment process. WindowsPE only supports a limited set of basic drivers such as those for network adapters and storage controllers. Drivers for Windows components that are not part of WindowsPE might produce errors. As a best practice, you can prevent such errors by configuring the deployment process to use only the required drivers during the WindowsPE phase.
Endpoint Configuration Manager
Starting in Endpoint Configuration Manager, you can synchronize and deploy Microsoft Surface firmware and driver updates by using the Configuration Manager client. For additional information, see KB 4098906, How to manage Surface driver updates in Configuration Manager.
Supported devices
Downloadable .msi files are available for Surface devices from Surface Pro 2 and later. Information about .msi files for the newest Surface devices such as Surface Pro 7, Surface Pro X, and Surface Laptop 3 will be available from this page upon release.
Managing firmware with DFCI
With Device Firmware Configuration Interface (DFCI) profiles built into Intune (now available in public preview), Surface UEFI management extends the modern management stack down to the UEFI hardware level. DFCI supports zero-touch provisioning, eliminates BIOS passwords, provides control of security settings including boot options and built-in peripherals, and lays the groundwork for advanced security scenarios in the future. For more information, see:
Microsoft Surface Keyboard Mac Driver Download
- Ignite 2019: Announcing remote management of Surface UEFI settings from Intune.
Best practices for update deployment processes
To maintain a stable environment, it's strongly recommended to maintain parity with the most recent version of Windows 10. For best practice recommendations, see Build deployment rings for Windows 10 updates.
Downloadable Surface update packages
Specific versions of Windows 10 have separate .msi files, each containing all required cumulative driver and firmware updates for Surface devices. Update packages may include some or all of the following components:
- Wi-Fi and LTE
- Video
- Solid state drive
- System aggregator module (SAM)
- Battery
- Keyboard controller
- Embedded controller (EC)
- Management engine (ME)
- Unified extensible firmware interface (UEFI)
Downloading .msi files
- Browse to Download drivers and firmware for Surface on the Microsoft Download Center.
- Select the .msi file name that matches the Surface model and version of Windows. The .msi file name includes the minimum supported Windows build number required to install the drivers and firmware. For example, as shown in the following figure, to update a Surface Book 2 with build 18362 of Windows 10, choose SurfaceBook2_Win10_18362_19.101.13994.msi. For a Surface Book 2 with build 16299 of Windows 10, choose SurfaceBook2_Win10_16299_1803509_3.msi.Figure 1. Downloading Surface updates
