Check out Legrand | AV's InfoComm Sessions on Tuesday, June 11th! 
 In Person  USB-C: Deploying Effective USB Solutions in AV Architectures USB-C is a trending connection for many different applications. In this session we talk about how USB-C was developed and how it functions for many different applications such as power, data and video delivery. Learn about how to know what features a USB-C cable needs to have to meet your customers need and how to identify the limitations as not all USB-C cables are the same. Room W206/207 June 11  8:00-9:00  C2G  
 In Person Where Do I Put All These Devices?  Effectively Mounting Gear Without a Rack Many complex AV systems are being accomplished with gear that doesn't live in a rack.  Effectively managing that gear has become an art form.   As more gear goes behind displays, in credenza, under cabinets, and stuck in lecterns it is important to have a basic understanding of how to more appropriately manage these installs.  This session will discuss the basics of thermal management, serviceability, cable management, and ADA compliance issues when mounting gear in non-standard locations.  When done with this session, the learner will have a better grasp of the kinds of materials that make mounting gear in strange places more successful.  The learner will also understand some of the pitfalls and concerns from not using a rack.  The learner will also benefit from real-life examples of how to appropriately plan for success when mounting gear in strange places. Room W219/220  June 11 8:30-9:30  MAP  
In Person  Power Up: Controlling Surges, Remote Reboots and Sustainability Power management is just as important as any other new technology to accomplish goals for an AV Design. Learn about how to take advantage of power solutions to make sure that your investment for AV deployments is safe and protected from power surges, brown outs and voltage spikes. Also learn about how to incorporate network based PDU's and cloud solutions to maintain and gather analytics to forecast critical decisions in the future.  This session will electrify your knowledge on power distribution! Room W206/207  June 11 9:30-10:30  MAP 1 CTS, 1 ANP
In Person  D=SIGN Green Sign, Easier Than You Think How does sustainability apply to creating, sourcing, integrating, and operating and supporting today’s digital signage solutions? Beyond basics like power save and enviro-friendly packaging. Room W231   June 11 10:00  DSF Session   
In Person  D=SIGN: Futureproofing your Hardware from Day 2 to Day 2000 Future Proofing hardware continues to be a challenge as we navigate changes in environments, users interactions and the emergence of new technologies. Let’s dive in to best practices to ensure your investment stays relevant and resilient for years to come. Room W231  June 11  11:00  DSF Session   
In Person How to Sell and Deploy MS Teams Rooms   Check back soon to see what this session is all about! Room W206/207 June 11  11:00-12:00 MAP, Chief, Vaddio

In Person AV Over IP: Unicast vs. Multicast Networking  So much of the AV industry is now AV Over IP.  Nearly everything connects to a data network.  There are two fundamentally different ways to send audio, video, and control over a network and understanding the differences between unicast and multicast networking can make configuring these systems much easier.  This session will focus on differentiating the two different types (with a bonus third type, broadcast).  It will help attendees understand why these are so different to deploy.  The session will help attendees select the appropriate network switch gear.  This session assumes you have already learned the benefit of AV Over IP and are ready for a bit more advanced information. Room W206/207 June 11  1:00-2:00 Luxul / Vaddio  
In Person  Scope of Work: Make a Statement with your Work! Scopes of work are more than just a document, they are the most critical part of any project from start to finish. The pre-production planning leads to a smooth experience for the customer, integrator and stakeholders. Customers need to understand their responsibilities, Installation Teams need to understand the details of the job and the handoff post-installation are key with any successful deployment. Learn about the basics and necessities to create statement of work that will make a statement! Room W206/207 June 11 2:30-3:30  C2G 1 CTS
In Person  Network Filters, A Secret Sauce to Successful AV Over IP Network Configurations  There is a well known but little understood feature in managed network switches which allows the network to make interesting and complex decisions about what traffic to pass and to block.  When used appropriately, network filters can help an AV professional deploy complex networks with simpler hardware and more robust long-term operation.  This session will demystify these seemingly complex ideas and help attendees understand how, when, and why to use network filters.  The session will differentiate between egress and ingress filters while helping determine what the equipment supports.  The learners will be able to use tools to configure multicast and unicast filters to permit or block traffic.  When leaving this session the learner will feel confident with how to configure filters, when to use filters, and why filters can help simplify complex hardware configurations. TBD  June 11  2:30-3:30   Luxul  
In Person Display Mounts Deep Dive: Understanding Steel Stud Environments During this session, you will learn about the different wall substrates you may encounter and what that means for selecting the right display mount for the job. You will learn what requirements are necessary to guarantee the safety of your installed system, what happens when failures occur, and how to communicate these needs to ensure the best outcome. Special focus will be given to the most prevalent wall substrate in Pro AV commercial projects – steel studs. TBD  June 11  4:00-5:00 Chief

In Person  Combining IT and AV How can IT and AV work together allowing both to highlight their individual successes, while expanding the others? We’ll be looking at the harmony that IT and AV can create in our connected world.

This fast-paced course will take the participant on a guided tour of the market impact created by the explosion of AV over IT, The Cloud and of IoT solutions. We will highlight the growth of these solutions, an astonishing 10%+, and the need for collaboration among the departments, IT and AV. Understanding the universe of opportunities created by this blend of technology is critical to IT and AV business success in the coming years.

Our investigation of this essential technology will include an exploration of the questions of bandwidth and hardware requirements, security, controllability, and ultimately responsibility. We will dive deeply into the associated elements of shared networks, VLANs, management of the networks, and the impacts other new developments such as edge computing, SDVoE, Dante, AVB, SMPTE 2110, IPMX, WiFi6E and WiFi7, will have on IT and AV system design and integration over the coming decade. As we conclude, we will share ideas on how to move forward in this new world of technology.		 Room 228  June 12  2:30-3:30 Legrand Wide
