Shattering the Myths of Technology-as-a-Service

Wednesday, June 12th | 2:15 pm 

Presenter:

Technology “as a Service.” It’s a buzz phrase we hear everywhere as organizations try to streamline their technology strategies. But what exactly does it mean? There is no consistent definition, which makes it easy to misuse and can cause confusion. In fact, it’s nearly impossible to provide a true “service” solution with on-premises hardware, no matter what it is. Join us as we debunk the myths and decode what “XaaS” really is so that you know how it aligns (or doesn’t) with your strategic business goals.

Where Do I Put All These Devices? Effectively Mounting Gear Without a Rack

Tuesday, June 11th | 8:30 - 9:30am 

Location: ED52 | W219/W220

Speakers:

  • Brian Retzlaff, AV Expert Focused on IP - AV Companies Everywhere
  • Kalee Luke, Territory Sales Manager - Legrand | AV

Category: Design and Integration

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.

Network Filters, the Secret to Successful AVoIP Network Configurations

Tuesday, June 11th | 2:30 - 3:30pm 

Location: ED16 | W228

Speakers:

  • Brian Retzlaff, AV Expert Focused on IP - AV Companies Everywhere
  • Kalee Luke, Territory Sales Manager - Legrand | AV

Category: Enterprise IT

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.

This session is approved for 1 ANP RU credit.
