Visionary’s PacketAV Duet Promotes Unified Connectivity for the City of Prairie Village
Advanced Sound and Communication selects Visionary’s PacketAV Duet to standardize connectivity for the City of Prairie Village
Handy added, “In the council chamber, we are utilizing the PacketAV Duets to allow participants to easily and quickly display content on the projector and distribute across multiple platforms, including video conferencing, video displays and computers on individual desks. Additionally, the police department is unique. It has three different rooms, including a roll call room, conference room and multipurpose room. The roll call room serves as a small meeting space to enable the police department to facilitate small, impromptu meetings. The conference room and multipurpose room are both designed for internal affairs, larger meetings and training. The spaces required multiple outputs for video conferencing, annotation and collaboration. Visionary’s PacketAV Duet has allowed us to provide a reliable, future-proof solution for audio and video distribution across the entire facility.”
Advanced Sound and Communication provided a near tamper-proof system with fewer components and points of failure with identical controllers in each room to create a solution that is easily supported and managed by the IT department staff. “We eliminated many components and points of failure,” noted Handy. “We also recognized that the people managing the system were IT professionals, so we wanted to provide a solution they were familiar with and, if they were not familiar, then provide them with technology that was easy to understand. It’s also quite challenging to gather all of the users to facilitate training. We wanted to create something that an individual without technical knowledge could easily navigate.”
