Discussion Led by Cindy and Cynthia: Challenges in Connected Audio-Visual Systems
In a recent conversation, industry experts Cindy Davis, Cynthia Wisehart, and Alex Pendleton delved into the intricacies of networked AV. The discussion, which can be viewed online, covered a range of topics from high-resolution content networks for digital signage and immersive experiences, to the security of dedicated AV networks and the feasibility of multicast on enterprise networks.
The discourse began with the fundamental question: Should networked AV be on a dedicated network or the enterprise network? This was followed by queries about the security of a dedicated AV network, with Alex Pendleton, NETGEAR's ProAV Design and North American Team Manager, recommending network segmentation, strong passwords, enabling VLANs, regular firmware updates, and network monitoring to ensure security.
Another integrator expressed interest in making a dedicated AV network transparent for management on an enterprise-wide Cisco network. To this, the experts suggested exploring solutions that allow for such integration while maintaining network security.
The conversation also touched upon the use of multicast on an enterprise network. One end user asked if it was possible, to which the experts responded that while multicast can be beneficial for network efficiency, it's crucial to ensure proper implementation and management to avoid potential issues.
Cindy Davis and Cynthia Wisehart also encouraged their audiences to share their own questions and pain points about networked AV. Readers, whether AV/IT end-users or ProAV integrators, are invited to send their questions to Cindy at [email protected].
The article concludes by encouraging readers to keep the conversation about networked AV going. Whether you're an end-user looking for answers or an integrator seeking insights, your questions and contributions are welcome. Let's continue to shape the future of networked AV together.
