Comparing Dante & AVB Network Solutions 

Until recently, if you wanted to distribute real-time audio over long distances or to different locations, you’d need long runs of cables. Long wires can degrade signal quality and create noise and interference. 

Luckily, there’s a better way to distribute audio in the conference room: networked audio. New audio networks can send hundreds of high-resolution audio files to multiple destinations, all over standard Ethernet cables. Audio network systems like Dante and AVB make this possible. But which is best for your business? 

In this blog post, we'll guide you through the differences between AVB and Dante, helping you make the right choice for your conference room AV needs. And if you’re ready to upgrade your conferencing systems in the Plano, TX, area, contact Texadia Systems today. 

GO WIRELESS & SIMPLIFY THE CONFERENCE ROOM EXPERIENCE

Modern conference room AV is incredibly convenient and helpful—when it’s done right. We’ve seen many businesses in the Plano, TX, area that struggle with outdated conferencing systems that slow down their meetings. Sharing media on their video displays and speakers is a hassle, and joining video calls becomes a headache for everyone on both ends. 

This can change with a wireless conference room system that’s easy for everyone to use. Wireless content-sharing devices make it simple to share content on displays and speakers, while a room control system consolidates all room devices into one platform. 

Below, we dive into wireless sharing and how it can simplify your conference room experience. And to get started, contact Texadia Systems here! 

HOW BYOD IS TRANSFORMING CONNECTIVITY IN MEETING ROOMS 

Conference rooms have long featured video and audio displays for people to share content during meetings. But in recent years, conference room technology has moved into the hybrid realm, where people use in-room cameras and microphones to communicate with remote teams. 

With all these devices in meeting rooms, we need an easy way to connect devices to share media and join video calls. There are two ways to do this: either have a dedicated computer in the room or allow people to use their own devices. 

‘Bring your own device,’ or ‘BYOD,’ is by far the most convenient method, as people can share the presentation or software already installed on their laptop to the main display. But achieving BYOD isn’t a simple feat. When people have different devices with varying input models, businesses often run into compatibility issues. 

Here’s how your company in the McKinney, TX-area can make BYOD work with your conference room AV. Ready to get started? Contact Texadia Systems for all your conference room technology needs. 

Update & Maintain Your Technology Hassle-Free with a Monthly Plan

We understand why many companies procrastinate updating their conferencing systems or digital signage—it’s a large upfront investment and daunting to find the right solution. But what if there was a new, more flexible way to upgrade and install new technology—one that let you change your mind later on?

AV as a service provides all the commercial technology you need in a low monthly payment. The subscription is much less of a commitment with the advantages of upgrades and maintenance whenever you need it.
