Webcast: Ins and Outs of Installing Wireless Speaker Systems
Mar 27, 2008 12:00 PM
Central to the AV/IT convergence is the concept of networked devices and the design, installation and maintenance of these devices and the networks by which they interconnect. AV technicians, integrators and installers are using networked hardware and implementing their interconnection at a pace and scope equal to that formerly employed exclusively by their IT co-workers. AV veteran Bennett Liles will examine six critical areas in which networked AV devices are revolutionizing the industry.
“Capitalizing on Networked Devices in System Design” takes a conceptual approach to determining the most effective use for the newest AV hardware that listens to control signals and talks to other hardware over IP networks. First up is the AV room control systems typically used to operate displays and media playback devices for presentation. Used virtually everywhere, the largest deployments of these networked systems are seen in the academic community. It is clear that digital signage is an industry built on network technology the use of networked devices here is examined. We will also examine how IP networks are used to extend computer control, provide BIOS level server access and remote power control. The use of IP-linked cameras in security systems and networked multi-display video processors in control centers is also covered. Finally, we look at the exploding realm of digital audio networks with protocols like CobraNet, Ethersound, A-Net and an exciting newcomer called Dante.
We will examine:
- IP-Linked AV Multimedia Control Systems
- Digital Signage Networks
- IP-Linked KVM Extension
- Security, Command & Control l
- IP-Linked Power Control
- Digital Audio Networks.
The use of networks in AV applications is vast and deep but with this survey we hope to introduce attendees to some of the most dynamic of these from a conceptual approach rather than by simply showcasing hardware. This approach will best equip participants with the knowledge of the benefits that networked AV devices can produce when they are expertly applied. With this brief survey, we hope to spur your interest to find out more.
Who should attend:
- Consultants
- AV corporate executives with system cost approval authority
- System Integrators
- End users who wish to understand the benefits of networked AV devices.
