AVI-SPL, the largest global integrator of Pro AV, video conferencing and telepresence systems, has landed number 48 on CRN magazine’s 2011 VAR500, a list of the top solutions provider in North America.

The jump reflects AVI-SPL’s status as the world’s leading Pro AV solutions provider for businesses and organizations of all types. Last December, Systems Contractor News placed AVI-SPL number one in its 2010 ranking of the top 50 Pro AV integrators in the U.S. and Canada. That list showed AVI-SPL’s revenues are more than three times that of its nearest competitor.

“We’re thrilled to be recognized among a list of such respected companies,� says AVI-SPL CEO John Zettel. “At AVI-SPL, we hang our hat on being a full-scale solutions provider. Our goal is to simplify our clients’ day-to-day communications by integrating customized technology solutions, including innovations in digital signage, video conferencing, immersive telepresence and more.�

AVI-SPL’s appearance on the VAR500 marks a jump of 85 spots from its 2009 ranking of #133. AVI-SPL joins some esteemed company in making the VAR500 top 50, including IBM, Dell, Xerox and Hewlett-Packard.
