AV Technology’s Cindy Davis and Sound & Video Contractor’s Cynthia Wisehart asked their respective audiences to share some questions about their most significant pain points surrounding networked AV. During a candid discussion, they put the challenge to NETGEAR’s ProAV Design and North American Team Manager, Alex Pendleton. Check out the video interview below.
Below are a few of the questions AV Technology’s end-user and Sound & Video Contractor’s integrator audiences asked. Check out the video for Pendleton’s answers, and our adventures down some rabbit holes.
The first question was a loaded one, and applies to end users and integrators: Should networked AV be on a dedicated network, or can it live harmoniously on the enterprise network?
From an integrator: My customer has an enterprise-wide Cisco network. How can I make a dedicated AV network transparent for management?
From an end user: Can multicast work on an enterprise network?
From an integrator: What about a network that serves up very high-resolution content like large-scale digital signage, theme park rides, or immersive experiences?
From an end user: Security is always a concern. How can I be sure a dedicated AV network is secure?
The conversation between Davis, Wisehart, and Pendleton ventured beyond these questions. Check out the video here.
