With all the variations in customer requirements, equipment specifications and technological developments, it\u2019s easy to suggest that there\u2019s no such thing as \u2018Standard\u2019. In reality, the most successful rollouts of meeting room technology are based on an individual organisation\u2019s \u2018standard\u2019 room types, based on their own specific requirements. This often leads to complex designs using a unique combination of products.

AMX Enova DVX Presentation Switchers are specified to switch and control some of the most high profile rooms, spaces and venues in the world. Watch this video to explore the key benefits of the series.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The simplest way to standardise any system design is to use a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amx.com\/en-US\/product_families\/dvx-4k60-up-to-8x4-2\">Presentation Switcher<\/a> and this is something that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amx.com\/en-US\/product_families\/dvx-4k60-up-to-8x4-2\">AMX by HARMAN<\/a> has specialised in for many years.\u00a0 The principle of a Presentation Switcher is simple, take the common elements of every room and combine them into a single product. This isn\u2019t as simple as it sounds of course, as there are so many variations in the requirements of a typical system, but by having the right combination of control functionality, A\/V switching and processing, and clever use of HARMAN\u2019s own world-leading technology, we can provide a truly, standard solution.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"form\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div style=\"display: inline-block; float: right; margin-left: 10px;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: 0;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.pages08.net\/harmaninternationalindustries\/june-2022-networked-av-case-study-roundup\/june-2022-networked-av-case-study-roundup\" width=\"260\" height=\"705\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>There are many benefits to using a Presentation Switcher, but these are often overlooked or misunderstood so let\u2019s look at each of these in more detail.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Reduced Points of Failure<br \/>\n<\/strong>Every time you connect one piece of equipment to another, you introduce a potential point of failure. The obvious culprit could be a faulty or damaged cable, but consideration should also be given to the programming required to control multiple devices as this is also a point of failure. It\u2019s also important to take into account the way one device interfaces with another.\u00a0 Even using the most \u2018standardised\u2019 technology can be problematic between different manufacturers. When faced with these problems, which manufacturer do you turn to? By using a presentation switcher, the number of interconnecting points of failure is vastly reduced.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Simplified Design<br \/>\n<\/strong>A good presentation switcher will have all the features you need for a whole host of room types. You don\u2019t need to use every single feature to get the best from the system, and although you might be able to build a cheaper system using separate components, this is very often false economy. A designer may think the cheapest option is the best, but the additional costs are often only seen by the engineers and programmers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Simplified Integration<br \/>\n<\/strong>In every system design, there are hidden costs. When you consider the complexity of building, cabling and programming a system made up of lots of separate components, the additional time soon forces the cost up. By using an already integrated solution, this process becomes much simpler, with far fewer concerns over product compatibility.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Simplified Support<br \/>\n<\/strong>With the same hardware and often the same code being used in multiple different room types, support becomes much easier. Standardised design, standardised code and standardised hardware are an engineer\u2019s dream and provide the ability to test, diagnose and resolve technical issues that might arise, in far less time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With these points in mind, HARMAN set out to re-develop the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amx.com\/en-US\/product_families\/dvx-4k60-up-to-8x4-2\">AMX Enova DVX Presentation Switcher<\/a> range to encompass all the requirements of modern audio-visual solutions, with enhanced performance and advanced technology at the heart of the system.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4 class=\"title style-scope ytd-video-primary-info-renderer\">Explore How to Design a Boardroom Conference Space w\/ AMX Enova DVX Presentation Switching<\/h4>\n<p><a class=\"lightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/dPSQ5UsWvw4\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11048\" src=\"https:\/\/hpro-web-assets.s3.amazonaws.com\/insights\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-23.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1325\" height=\"645\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hpro-web-assets.s3.amazonaws.com\/insights\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-23.jpg 1325w, https:\/\/hpro-web-assets.s3.amazonaws.com\/insights\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-23-768x374.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1325px) 100vw, 1325px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Video technology has reached a level where the capabilities of display hardware are more advanced than many of the video sources in use. To ensure that the presentation switcher doesn\u2019t introduce a weak link into the video chain, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amx.com\/en-US\/products\/dvx-2265-4k\">DVX-2265-4K<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amx.com\/en-US\/products\/dvx-3266-4k\">DVX-3266-4K<\/a> systems are capable of switching and distributing 4K60 4:4:4 video and are compliant with HDMI 2.0, HDCP 2.2 and HDR video formats. In short, Enova DVX models offer the best video quality available in a presentation switcher.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"lightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amx.com\/en-US\/product_families\/dvx-4k60-up-to-8x4-2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-11062\" src=\"https:\/\/hpro-web-assets.s3.amazonaws.com\/insights\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-14.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"405\" height=\"315\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hpro-web-assets.s3.amazonaws.com\/insights\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-14.jpg 893w, https:\/\/hpro-web-assets.s3.amazonaws.com\/insights\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-14-768x598.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 405px) 100vw, 405px\" \/><\/a>Using digital video is commonplace in every video switching solution today, but the use of digital audio is often overlooked. Thanks to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crownaudio.com\/en-US\/network-audio#dante\">Dante<\/a> capabilities of the DVX 4K solution, there are 8 channels of digital audio in and out available to go along with the 6 analogue microphone inputs, 2 stereo inputs and outputs, and the onboard 120w per channel <a href=\"https:\/\/www.crownaudio.com\/en\/product_families\/drivecore-install-network-series\">Crown DriveCore amplifier<\/a>. Now, you can integrate the Enova DVX 4K solution with any Dante-based DSP, microphone array or external amplifier. When combined with the powerful DSP, <a href=\"https:\/\/dbxpro.com\/en\/product_families\/feedback-suppression\">dbx Advanced Feedback Suppression<\/a> and 4 separate audio groups, the audio is as well specified as the video.<\/p>\n<p>An important consideration for corporate solutions is choosing to locate the switching and control hardware away from the room itself. This helps to reduce the space requirements, negates unsightly equipment racks and also allows technical staff to work on the majority of the equipment without entering the room. AMX Enova DVX 4K systems have a number of DXLink inputs and outputs, along with standard HDMI ports, to provide both local and remote connections &#8211; meaning the main bulk of the hardware can be installed up to 100 meters away. Only the DXLink transmitters and receivers need to be located inside the room, to provide local inputs and outputs as well as device control and USB 2.0 ports.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"lightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amx.com\/en-US\/product_families\/dvx-4k60-up-to-8x4-2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-11063\" src=\"https:\/\/hpro-web-assets.s3.amazonaws.com\/insights\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-19.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"359\" height=\"294\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hpro-web-assets.s3.amazonaws.com\/insights\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-19.jpg 862w, https:\/\/hpro-web-assets.s3.amazonaws.com\/insights\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Untitled-19-768x630.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 359px) 100vw, 359px\" \/><\/a>The final, and arguably the most important aspect of the solution is the User Interface.<\/p>\n<p>This is the only part of the system that the user sees, so a key element of the system design is to ensure that the workflow is as simple and automated as possible.\u00a0 When designing the user interface, there\u2019s often a temptation to provide every possible function to the user, with the misguided view that training will allow the user to access all the functions they require.
