Description
High Bandwidth Video Distribution over Ethernet Networks Technical training from 1-4PM Reception and General Meeting from 4-7PM
Event Details
Instructor: Paul Zielie, 2015 AVIXA Educator of the Year
Course Overview:
There has been a strong AV industry trend towards replacing legacy fixed matrix switching with IP based virtual matrix switches. One of the perceived advantages of an IP based matrix switch is the ease with which multiple rooms or sub-systems can be joined via common network hardware. However, unless proper design is implemented this inter-room connection brings the possibility of catastrophically overloading links between networks or network devices.
Today, it is common practice to mitigate these network topology issues by putting all multicast media sources and receivers in a single switch. This method which requires every transmitter and receiver to have a direct wiring path to the centralized switch creates a large infrastructure burden to the customer since this star topology does not match the way existing IT structured cabling is run and requires a separate overlay infrastructure.
This class teaches the root causes of these issues and architectures to mitigate problems that arise with scaling network media distribution application. While it will discuss specific applicable technologies, it assumes a basic understanding of network protocols and configuration. The architectures and techniques discussed are completely manufacturer agnostic, applying to any products in this class.
* Class size is limited to 20 students
* Participants will receive 3 AVIXA CTUs
