Considered a vital business technology, audiovisual applications are now commonplace in a variety of environments. For everything from educational smart boards, and projector and presentation systems, to videoconferencing, digital signage and sound systems, audiovisual and IT connectivity is being installed in ceilings, walls, floors and tables in offices, boardrooms, classrooms, auditoriums, public spaces and courtrooms. Understanding the variety of audiovisual devices and enclosures, knowing which connector type supports which application and ensuring cable management and aesthetics during installation is key to designing audiovisual systems that enable proper operation, deliver optimal performance and facilitate future upgrades and changes. This seminar will educate attendees on the various components and connectors and how they are properly installed into ceilings, walls, floors and furniture. Several scenarios and demonstrations will offer design tips for ideal layout of components and enclosure selection to support various audiovisual applications.
