The explosive growth of computer networking technology (IT) has produced huge benefits for many industries, and the A/V market is no exception. The advantages of digital media networking have been clear for some time, but until now many felt that there were too many limitations and too much to learn in order to make the switch.

Peavey® Commercial Audio, and Audinate along with Allen and Heath, Lab.gruppen, and media partner Sound & Communications, will be presenting a morning of insightful and real world presentations by the industries top A/V manufacturers on Tuesday June 14 from 9:00am to 1:00pm at the Rosen Centre in Orlando.

The conference also includes the European award winning A/V design consultant Stefan Mathias of the Hartmann + Mathais Partnership. Stefan will also be speaking about their Goethe University AV installation in Frankfurt, which recently won a Sinus Award (“System Integrations Award”) at this year’s PL+S. In addition, the seminar showcases other real world implementations and benefits for IP digital networks.

“Peavey Electronics led the charge into digital audio networking with MediaMatrix®, the global standard and market leader since 1993,” said Hartley Peavey, founder and CEO of Peavey Electronics Corporation. “By collaborating with Audinate at InfoComm, we are offering consultants and integrators an open opportunity to learn about Dante, an exciting new transport protocol, and how Peavey has embraced this new technology. We have a long history of innovation, and we will continue to add to MediaMatrix’s capability and flexibility by adopting new technologies like Audinate’s Dante protocol.â€?

A significant shift away from traditional analog networking is taking place and moving quickly towards digital media networking. A key driver for this is the convergence of AV and IT, underpinned by the adoption of high performance AV networking technologies, such as Danteâ„¢, based on the same underlying standards that are used in IT.

“This conference should be invaluable to installation contractors and AV designers who are interested in understanding the trends in the convergence of A/V and IT networks.�, remarked Lee Ellison, CEO of Audinate. “ It will be extremely beneficial to learn about some of the innovative networking solutions that have been leading the way in Europe. This seminar will bring together a few of our partners and how they are using Dante technology and how Dante de-risks your future by offering a migration to AVB.�
