Upgrade Your Meeting Spaces with New Shure IntelliMix™ Room Kits + Teams Rooms

Hybrid collaboration isn't going away any time soon, but subpar meeting experiences should. At Texadia Systems, we know that for collaboration spaces to be truly effective, you need intuitive technology that “just works” every time. That’s why we trust Shure’s IntelliMix Room Kits when integrating Microsoft Teams Rooms.

Whether you're designing a new office in Dallas/Ft. Worth or upgrading an existing meeting space, this solution combines premium audio, intelligent video, and effortless control in a package that eliminates technical headaches. And we’ll install, scale, and support it all for you.

Let’s Take a Closer Look. 

“Is Ketra really worth it?” 

It’s a common question searched online and asked by our showroom visitors. Because while Ketra is regarded as the gold standard of tunable lighting control, it does have a notably higher price tag than products like Philips Hue. So, is it really the best? 

To understand Ketra’s value, it’s best experienced in person. But until then, let’s explore what makes Ketra more than just another lighting product, and why it’s trusted by design professionals, homeowners, and architects alike.

Not Just Bulbs: A Complete Line of Architectural Lighting

While most smart lighting brands focus on retrofittable LED bulbs, Ketra offers an expansive architectural-grade line: recessed downlights, linear tape lights, and track lights, all fully color-tunable across 16 million colors. We can use Ketra alone to create complete lighting designs, from ambient and accent lighting to task-focused areas.

The technology is equally advanced: each Ketra fixture contains a 16-diode chip, giving it the precision to render the exact hues and dynamic white tuning you desire. 

Outdoor Audio That Actually Endures All Weather 

Are you someone who prefers to purchase high-quality, long-lasting items rather than quick and convenient products that quickly fall apart? 

If that sounds like you, we’re willing to bet you’re a little nervous about investing in new outdoor audio or lighting equipment. Speakers that stay outside permanently—how long can they really last? 

While it may sound hard to believe, Coastal Source’s outdoor hardware is the real deal. We’ve had a very long partnership with Coastal Source and trust that their outdoor audio and lighting can endure even the harshest Texas weather, year after year. 

Get the Custom Width & Length to Match Your Frame TV  

You care about how your home looks, right? You aren’t a college kid with thumb-tacked posters and a hodgepodge of random furniture. No, you’re an adult with taste and a home you take pride in. 

So, if you’re reading this, you probably understand the clash between interior design and setting up an attractive entertainment system. You could have the most beautifully cultivated furniture, artwork, and lighting—and then a clunky TV setup disturbs the entire aesthetic.  

Thankfully, many technology manufacturers are catching on and offering solutions to make TVs appear more aesthetically pleasing. Samsung’s The Frame television resembles a real piece of art when powered off, and fits ultra-slim to your wall. 

And now, audio manufacturer Leon has released a soundbar to perfectly fit the width and dimensions of any Frame AV. Meet the Leon FrameBar, the soundbar built for audio and design enthusiasts alike. 

The Soundbar Made for The Frame 

Leon’s FrameBar is custom-built to match the precise dimensions and frame color of any Samsung Frame TV, creating a unified, polished look. With its ultra-thin cabinet (as slim as 2.375 inches), the FrameBar installs flush to the wall using Leon’s exclusive mounting brackets.

Meet Q-SYS, the Modern AV Platform for Businesses

In today’s IT-driven world, everything from security to communications is built on scalable, software-driven solutions—except, for many businesses, AV. 

Traditional AV systems are still clunky, hardware-heavy, and difficult to integrate, leaving IT teams scrambling to manage disparate devices that don’t play well together. 

If your AV setup feels like a constant headache—requiring custom programming, endless troubleshooting, and costly upgrades—you’re not alone. But it doesn’t have to be this way. The Q-SYS OS by QSC is changing the game, bringing the same IT-friendly approach to AV that businesses have relied on for decades in their networking and software infrastructures. Here’s how it works—and why your business needs it.

Create a Versatile Media Room with Home Theater-Level AV 

Do you crave the ultra-wide screen, surround sound, and cinematic experience that a home theater provides—but aren’t sure if you have room for a home theater? Or maybe you do have the space yet wonder how often you’ll use a room with only a screen and seating. 

There’s a happy medium between dedicated home theaters and a living room setup, and that’s the media room. Perhaps a media room is a better fit for your Highland Park, TX home. You can still enjoy the high-quality audio and video setup you’d find in a home theater installation, but with more flexibility for other activities. 

Below we’ll share how you can create a multipurpose media room and what equipment to include. And to learn more about the world of home theaters, subscribe to our monthly newsletter here! 

HOW OUR COLLABORATION CREATES INCREDIBLE SYSTEMS

Get the Benefits of Remote Work without the Downsides 

We love hybrid work. It’s incredibly convenient, widens talent pools, and helps people live their best lives without the stress of long commutes and finding local housing. 

But have we lost something without seeing each other in person? Face-to-face interactions lead to fewer misunderstandings, more effective communication, and stronger bonds. So, when your teams aren’t in person together, it’s critical to replicate the face-to-face experience the best way possible.

A well-designed video conferencing system not only ensures effective communication but also creates an inclusive environment where every team member feels equally valued. Let’s explore how advanced conferencing technology can improve hybrid communication and create a more welcoming company culture. 

How Hybrid Work Reveals the Weaknesses of Outdated Meeting Rooms 

In 2020, when most of the working world went online, we proclaimed that the future was remote. Many business owners worried their offices would forever sit empty. 

That didn’t turn out to be the case—instead, most businesses are operating on a hybrid model. Today, 50-52 percent of ‘remote capable’ jobs are working hybrid, with 22-30 percent fully remote and 20-22 percent entirely on-site. 

Why It’s Time to Ditch the Single-Router, Multi-App Smart Home Setup

Does this sound like your home? 

You have a single, consumer-grade Wi-Fi router that’s used on every floor and in every room, serving sometimes dozens of devices at once. Your entertainment, home office, and smart devices all rely on this router alone—and sometimes your technology stalls or becomes unresponsive. 

On top of that, every IoT device has its own app, cloud account, and even sometimes its own physical remote. You’re left juggling three or four apps for the smart bulbs, another for the security cameras, and a pile of remotes to control your TV and soundbar setup. It’s madness! 

This was the old way. Thankfully, there is now a smarter, simpler approach to living with home technology, with help from your local integrator. 

Elevating Interior Design with a Touch of Brass 

When many people hear ‘home automation,’ they think of glossy screens and futuristic gadgets. But Lutron offers a refreshing alternative for whole-home lighting control: the Aviena keypad. 

Designed with antique charm and performance, Aviena proves that smart technology can also be beautiful.

If you’re in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and planning a luxury home build or renovation, here’s why this new lighting control solution deserves your attention.

Enhance Your Healthcare Campus with Advanced AV Solutions

Effective communication is non-negotiable, especially for institutions that serve as hubs for innovation, collaboration, and ongoing training. One leading hospital in the Dallas/Fort Worth area recognized that its existing auditorium Audio Video setup no longer met the needs of modern medical education and leadership meetings.

They turned to Texadia Systems to deliver an AV transformation that would support their commitment to excellence without disrupting current infrastructure. The resulting state-of-the-art auditorium supports high-impact presentations, seamless collaboration, and user-friendly operation for medical professionals and administrators alike.

Getting Started with Direct-View LED Walls 

From command centers to retail spaces, all types of businesses thrive with a video wall display. 

While the video wall has been around for quite some time (first introduced in the early 1980s), the latest, greatest version in 2025 is the Direct View LED Video Wall. Unlike previous iterations, DVLEDs don’t use a backlight to display an image. Instead, each individual LED diode is both a light source and a pixel. Each pixel emits its own light, creating richer colors and a smooth, grid-free image. 

Direct View LED walls are also completely modular and scalable to any size or aspect ratio—which is especially helpful for any business looking to get creative with their video wall display. You don’t have to stick to one image or video on the screen. Why not use your wall-sized screen to share all the content you desire? 

Whether you need game coverage in a sports bar or wayfinding content in an airport, a commercial integrator like Texadia Systems can help you customize the number of images/videos on display. Here’s how it works. 

Two Essential Components: the Processor & Controller 

To set up your video wall’s display, you’ll need a quality processor and controller, which serve two very distinct purposes:

Protect What You’ve Built with Building-Wide Access Control 

What happens when your facility’s entry points aren’t as secure as you think?

In just the last year, several Texas-based businesses and organizations have suffered devastating breaches, each incident underscoring the need for proactive, intelligent access control.

• Austin Pets Alive!, an animal shelter, was broken into in August 2025. A keypad was forcibly damaged, dogs were released, and tragically, one died.
  
  
• Overhaul, a supply chain management company in Austin, reported a 49% increase in cargo theft in 2025, as part of a broader rise in theft across Texas.
  
  
• In Midland, businesses lost over $90,000 in property during a 2024 string of break-ins.
  
  
• In Houston, a local restaurant suffered two burglaries in a single week, one involving a power cut to disable the alarm system.

While motives vary, these incidents share one common thread: a lack of sufficient physical access control. A damaged keypad, an unmonitored entry point, or a power outage shouldn’t be a free pass for criminals.

The Latest Hero of the Hybrid Workspace 

Is your office designed for the way people actually work today? 

If your Dallas/Ft. Worth workplace still relies primarily on large conference rooms, you may be missing one of the most effective collaboration spaces in modern offices: the huddle room.

Typically 150 to 200 square feet, these compact meeting spaces have quickly become some of the most valuable real estate in commercial environments. If your office hasn’t carved out space for huddle rooms yet, let’s explore why they’re gaining popularity across Texas businesses. 

Plan Ahead for Whole-Home Convenience & Control 

If you’re planning a new home build or a renovation, your technology systems should feel effortless. And the best systems aren’t bolted on after the drywall is finished; they should be thoughtfully designed into your home’s structure itself. That’s where Crestron stands apart.

Unlike many plug-and-play smart home solutions, Crestron becomes part of the fabric of the home. From lighting and shades to audio, video, and security, the system is designed alongside the architecture so every element works together seamlessly.

Here are five reasons discerning homeowners, builders, and design professionals across Dallas/Ft. Worth choose Crestron when building a new residence.

Putting More Control in the Homeowner’s Hands 

If you live in a Control4 household, you’re in luck. 

Control4 recently unveiled its newest operating system, X4, which brings newfound customization options to your C4 interface. Plus, if you’re an Apple fan, X4 deepens Control4’s integration with Apple products. 

Here’s all you can expect when you upgrade your Control4 system to X4.

Why the Most Successful Modern Offices Are Designed Systematically 

Most organizations move into an empty office space and from there, build their technology one room at a time. A conference room gets upgraded. A huddle space gets a new display. Another team purchases its own video conferencing solution. 

Over time, the office becomes a collection of disconnected experiences, with some rooms up to modern standards—and others left somewhere in the mid-2000s.   

Today’s leading organizations are taking a different approach. Instead of making isolated technology decisions, they're designing connected collaboration ecosystems that consistently support hybrid work and create a better experience for all employees, wherever they decide to meet. Here’s how they’re doing it.  

See What Your Conference Room Can Actually Do

Most businesses running Microsoft Teams have no idea how much the platform can do beyond starting a call. Teams Rooms has grown into a genuinely capable meeting platform, but a lot of that capability sits unused because nobody set it up—or knew it existed in the first place. 

At Texadia Systems, we design and install Teams Rooms systems across Dallas-Fort Worth, and we spend as much time introducing clients to features they didn't know they had.

Getting People Into the Room Faster

The biggest friction point in most meetings is the first two minutes. Teams Rooms solves this with one-touch join, QR code join, and direct guest join, so nobody's hunting for a meeting ID or waiting on IT. 

And because cross-platform join now supports Cisco Webex, Google Meet, Zoom, and standard SIP connections, you're no longer locked out of meetings just because a client or vendor uses a different platform. If your business regularly hosts outside partners, this alone solves a recurring headache.

Features That Change How a Meeting Actually Runs

Once people are in the room, Teams Rooms gives you real control over how the meeting looks and functions:

A luxury smart home isn't a one-time project. It's an investment that deserves ongoing care.

Installing a custom smart home is an exciting milestone. Your lighting responds to the time of day, music follows you from room to room, and every system works together with a simple tap or voice command.

But what many homeowners don't realize is that the installation is only the beginning.

Like any sophisticated home system, smart technology performs best when it's maintained over time. Software evolves, devices receive updates, and your family's routines naturally change. The homeowners who enjoy the most reliable, stress-free experience aren't necessarily the ones with the most technology. They're the ones with the right support behind it.
