Challenge
AMEC wanted to outfit their new Houston office conference and training rooms with easy-to-use AV equipment that enabled both HDMI and VGA. The system had to be intuitive, one-hundred percent reliable and all products needed to be out of sight.
Solution
IAV, the professional integrator, designed sleek, no-nonsense systems for three different parts of the building: the training room, the executive conference room and 23 smaller conference/training rooms. Each room has a simple system that accesses the necessary digital technology with the push of a button without having to adjust projectors or resize screens. And there are no poor quality images.
The 30-seat primary training room inherited equipment from the executive conference room. This included a smart tablet for annotating images, two ceiling-mounted projectors and Kramer VGA and HDMI cables inside a custom podium. Twenty-three smaller conference/training rooms were outfitted with identical systems. Each included either a Kramer VP-434 or VP-435 scaler connected by Kramer VGA and HDMI cables. The scaler converted the selected video signal to a computer graphics or HDTV output resolution. The HDMI output signal was transmitted to the projector via CAT 5 cables.
Existing cable in most of the rooms saved the considerable expense of rewiring. All hardware was housed under the conference room tables to create a sleek and professional installation with reduced clutter. The AMEC executive conference room features an under-the-table mounted VP-435 ProScale Digital Scaler and a Kramer FC-46 audio de-embedder for audio conferencing.
Results
“They didn’t want a control system or a confusing bunch of products, so we designed a simple, intuitive system with easy-to-use Kramer products. We were very conscious of having no clutter on the table. The Kramer under-the-table mounted units and especially the cables helped us achieve that,” said Tom Austin of Industrial Audio/Video Inc.
