Learn how to remotely set up and manage systems using the Crestron Cloud Provisioning tool. We’ll also delve into the Crestron Auto Update Tool for managing large‐scale firmware and software deployments in any environment.
 

Learn about the latest Crestron hardware and software innovations including: groundbreaking Unified Communications meeting and collaboration technology; DigitalMedia^™ NVX Series network AV; and DM XiO Director^™ virtual matrix switcher; Crestron Avia^™ DSPs and amps; AirMedia^® as a service and AirMedia Presentation Systems as a huddle room solution.
 

DigitalMedia NVX Series is the only secure, 4K60, 4:4:4, HDR solution. DM NVX Encoders/Decoders can transmit 4K60 4:4:4 HDR video over 1 Gigabit Ethernet. From a simple point-to-point setup to thousands of endpoints, DM NVX is infinitely scalable with no latency and without the need for expensive custom 10Gb infrastructure. DM XiO Director facilitates configuration, control, and management of a large-scale AV network for DM NVX, providing the virtual equivalent of one or more hardware-based DM matrix switchers.
 

Designing meeting spaces using Crestron Mercury^®, Crestron SR, and Crestron RL^® 3. Learn how to create simple systems for large-scale deployment using various Unified Communications technologies.

This session provides a detailed look at the latest audio solutions from Crestron including Crestron Avia DSPs and software tool, new multichannel and modular utility amplifiers, architectural speakers and high-performance loudspeakers. This session will get you up to speed on easy to scale audio solutions for a wide range of rooms.
 

In the world of IT, central control and management is key. This seminar will guide you on how to properly design AV systems to meet the needs of both the end user and IT managers. When does it make sense to run code centrally, and when is a distributed architecture more desired?
 

Modern audio devices are rapidly integrated and connected over the corporate network infrastructure. This course will explore the provisioning, management, performance, and security considerations that are critical components of a successful project. We will explore the most popular network audio technologies such as AES67, AVB, and Dante^® while discussing performance considerations and security requirements that will satisfy the most discerning IT professional. We'll review network infrastructure choices, and control concepts when planning for mixed-use networks (audio, control, and other data sharing the network). In the end, this course will provide a solid foundation enabling you to be a more effective designer and technician when working with audio solutions on the network.
 
Attendees will be able to:

• Explain the critical components of a successful networked audio project
• Describe the most popular network audio technologies
• Recognize network infrastructure choices and control concepts when planning mixed use networks

In the age of IoT, servers full of user data, and networked AV, you have a responsibility to understand the consequences of security breaches. In this course we’ll examine security principles, from authentication and authorization, to cryptography, and understand: why VLAN isn't a sufficient solution to network security; what a skilled hacker can accomplish through a single device; and hacking vectors, including firmware vulnerabilities. 
 
Attendees will be able to:

• Define the differences within security principles and their use
• Identify new areas requiring security considerations
• Explain the IoT impact on network security

Wireless video has exploded onto the market in the last several years. Learn about recent advances in wireless presentation and important considerations for network design, security, manageability, and user experience. We'll also take a look at technologies on the horizon and share a vision for workplace collaboration in a world without wires.
 
Attendees will be able to

• Describe advances in wireless presentation
• Define considerations for network design, security and manageability
• Identify technologies in the future and their implication on workplace collaboration

Explore multiple design considerations that will ensure your conference rooms can support ever-changing user requirements. Learn how to support BYOD soft codecs with new small room solutions, as well as traditional, highly integrated rooms. You'll also gain insight into how microphones can be deployed in rooms with flexible furniture. New technologies will be discussed for provisioning, monitoring, and managing the increasing number of spaces across an enterprise that employ these sophisticated solutions.
 
Attendees will be able to:

• Explain multiple design considerations to support changing user requirements
• Show support with new small room solutions
• Gain insight into how microphones can be deployed in reconfigurable rooms

With an increasing number of spaces with installed technology, devices that are riding on the network, and people that have access to your network, the manual processes you've relied on for decades are no longer practical or sustainable. Systems must be streamlined and cloud-based for mass deployment and enterprise-wide management. This course will cover system design considerations, requirements, specifications, and best practices of cloud management to ensure security of network devices and content and the gathering of actionable data to ensure maximum uptime and optimal user experience.
 
Attendees will be able to:

• Use cloud-based systems to streamline mass deployment
• Describe best practices of cloud management
• Gather and utilize actionable data
