Syracuse University's new Veteran Refresher Center (NVRC) is designed to provide innovative curricula and support programs for active and retired U.S. military personnel, and their families.The NVRC is set up in the Daniel & Gayle D'Aniello Building, and its comfortable space environment and integrated advanced technology have greatly benefited the majority of teachers, students, staff and institutions outside the school.The building is ideally located between the school and the Syracuse Virginia Medical Center.The venues that bring together cutting-edge technology not only promote teaching innovation and promote cooperation between the government and the community, but also help improve the personal comprehensive ability of soldiers who defend their homes and the country.It is used as a "Veteran's Home" for schools and even Central New York.CHALLENGES PROJECT CHALLENGESThe NVRC should provide collaborative and meeting spaces to develop students' theoretical research, actionable programming, and thought leadership.The center will require multiple study spaces and meeting rooms, as well as a conference center with a 750-seat auditorium.System deployments should support multiple sources, from Blu-ray® players and physical projectors, to BYOD and ceiling- and wall-mounted PTZ cameras, and more.Projection systems and display devices of different sizes and heights are used to ensure the viewing effect of audiences in different positions in the room.AV systems in all rooms, while supporting a wide range of functions, should facilitate easy operation by users of different ability levels.This means that system operation must be intuitive, easy to use, and reliable.At the same time, some functions should also support automation or follow ADA guidelines to further simplify user operations.SOLUTION SOLUTIONSDesigned to follow the ADA Universal Accessibility Guidelines, the NVRC is ready to provide resources for students, students and visitors of all abilities.For example, an integrated ALS system and a sign language computer-aided real-time transcription display with a camera can provide operational convenience for the hearing-impaired.To meet LEED-certified building regulations, the design team selected a variety of products and technologies for the project, including Extron DTP® systems, audio and control systems.The DTP CrossPoint® 4K seamless presentation matrix switcher is the heart of any room AV system and is available in fixed input/output configurations of 10x8, 8x6 or 8x4.Among the many features, the seamless transition transition is the most popular among teachers, speakers and students.While this feature enhances the entire content presentation process, it also helps veterans and other students learn and practice professional presentation skills.The DTP matrix switcher integrates a control processor and AEC-enabled audio DSP mixing function, as well as a built-in 100 W mono power amplifier, which greatly simplifies system installation and configuration.The school selected DTP based on its proven reliability and versatility, such as support for HDMI and DTP input/output, Vector™ 4K scaling technology, and transmission of AV and control signals over a single twisted pair cable to 100m away.A scaling engine can individually scale video to 4K for each DTP output, while digital input/output ports allow interfacing with other room systems that integrate more technology.An integrated three-port AV LAN switch separates AV equipment from the campus network to ensure sufficient bandwidth for the NVRC network.A Cable Cubby 222 US cable-mounted junction box is provided in individual rooms for AV and AC power connections, as well as for powering external devices at field workstations, lecterns, or conference tables.Conventional AV systems use single or multiple four-input HDMI switchers, namely SW4 HD 4K PLUS 4K/60 HDMI switcher or DTP T SW4 HD 4K HDMI switcher with integrated DTP output.The above models are used to automatically switch signals and transmit them from indoor source equipment or user equipment to a matrix switcher in a cabinet between equipment.The automatic switching of indoor signals greatly reduces the number of input configurations in the cabinet, and users can choose to install the best size DTP CrossPoint model.For in-room AV and control signal distribution, DTP transmitters and receivers transmit 4K HDMI signals between switchers/matrix switchers and sources and displays.The USB Extender Plus transmitter and receiver are used for USB signal transmission.The 100 W audio power amplifier built into the DTP matrix switcher drives the ceiling speakers.The number of speakers depends on the size of the room.The ProDSP™ digital matrix processor selects and mixes microphone and program audio, and customizes it to suit the room's acoustic needs, making it ideal for rooms that demand higher audio quality.Fine-tuning of room audio mainly includes audio delay and echo cancellation.These processing capabilities support AEC, ensuring proper communication for all personnel in the field, including those with mild hearing impairments.For the severely hearing impaired, most rooms are ALS capable.In rooms with integrated DMP 128 Plus CAT, the audio signal is processed for Dante® transmission over the NVRC network.The DMP 128 Plus C V is deployed in rooms that need to support VoIP, eg Room 330.In some rooms, the XPA 2001-70V amplifier is used as the driver for the room speakers.The matrix switcher's integrated IP Link® Pro control processor works with TouchLink® Pro touchpanels, MediaLink® controllers, and eBUS® button panels to provide user-friendly system control.The IPCP Pro 250 control processor enables room control in a peer-to-peer manner.Large spaces use multi-point control.For example, the wall in front of the lecture hall, the control room and the two lounges are equipped with 4 TouchLink Pro touch screens of different sizes - TLP Pro 1025M, TLP Pro 1720MG and TLP Pro 725M.When the lecture hall is used as an amphitheater, the height-adjustable Steelcase® Airtouch® workbench with built-in 10" touch screen is connected to the system through the stage floor box. The built-in equipment mainly includes annotation monitors, microcomputers, Blu ray® Players, physical projectors, AV connections, and a TLP Pro 1025T touchscreen. The high resolution and color depth offered by the TouchLink Pro's capacitive touchscreen allows low vision users to see the screen clearly and easily operate. Control products for furniture and walls fully meet the NVRC's need for intuitive and convenient operation. The eBUS key panels EBP 50 and EBP 1200C feature light-touch backlit keys with labels that can be customized to suit room-specific functions. In addition, the EBP 1200C Cable Cubby® enclosure AAP™ AV connection and power modules are installed in the three openings of the , which can supply power to multiple devices of teachers and students at the same time. The MediaLink controller MLC Plus 100 AAP also uses similar buttons. At the same time, its edges, rounded corners and screws All are hidden under the panel, which not only ensures a smooth and scratch-free surface, but also prevents the loss of screws. The PoE function makes it possible to supply power and communicate through a single Ethernet cable. For AV connectivity, the 4 single-bay AAP modules are Available for system connection.CHALLENGES PROJECT CHALLENGESThe NVRC should provide collaborative and meeting spaces to develop students' theoretical research, actionable programming, and thought leadership.The center will require multiple study spaces and meeting rooms, as well as a conference center with a 750-seat auditorium.System deployments should support multiple sources, from Blu-ray® players and physical projectors, to BYOD and ceiling- and wall-mounted PTZ cameras, and more.Projection systems and display devices of different sizes and heights are used to ensure the viewing effect of audiences in different positions in the room.AV systems in all rooms, while supporting a wide range of functions, should facilitate easy operation by users of different ability levels.This means that system operation must be intuitive, easy to use, and reliable.At the same time, some functions should also support automation or follow ADA guidelines to further simplify user operations.SOLUTION SOLUTIONSA Cable Cubby 222 US cable-mounted junction box is provided in individual rooms for AV and AC power connections, as well as for powering external devices at field workstations, lecterns, or conference tables.Conventional AV systems use single or multiple four-input HDMI switchers, namely SW4 HD 4K PLUS 4K/60 HDMI switcher or DTP T SW4 HD 4K HDMI switcher with integrated DTP output.The above models are used to automatically switch signals and transmit them from indoor source equipment or user equipment to a matrix switcher in a cabinet between equipment.The automatic switching of indoor signals greatly reduces the number of input configurations in the cabinet, and users can choose to install the best size DTP CrossPoint model.For in-room AV and control signal distribution, DTP transmitters and receivers transmit 4K HDMI signals between switchers/matrix switchers and sources and displays.The USB Extender Plus transmitter and receiver are used for USB signal transmission.The 100 W audio power amplifier built into the DTP matrix switcher drives the ceiling speakers.The number of speakers depends on the size of the room.The ProDSP™ digital matrix processor selects and mixes microphone and program audio, and customizes it to suit the room's acoustic needs, making it ideal for rooms that demand higher audio quality.Fine-tuning of room audio mainly includes audio delay and echo cancellation.These processing capabilities support AEC, ensuring proper communication for all personnel in the field, including those with mild hearing impairments.For the severely hearing impaired, most rooms are ALS capable.In rooms with integrated DMP 128 Plus CAT, the audio signal is processed for Dante® transmission over the NVRC network.The DMP 128 Plus C V is deployed in rooms that need to support VoIP, eg Room 330.In some rooms, the XPA 2001-70V amplifier is used as the driver for the room speakers.The matrix switcher's integrated IP Link® Pro control processor works with TouchLink® Pro touchpanels, MediaLink® controllers, and eBUS® button panels to provide user-friendly system control.The IPCP Pro 250 control processor enables room control in a peer-to-peer manner.Large spaces use multi-point control.For example, the wall in front of the lecture hall, the control room and the two lounges are equipped with 4 TouchLink Pro touch screens of different sizes - TLP Pro 1025M, TLP Pro 1720MG and TLP Pro 725M.When the lecture hall is used as an amphitheater, the height-adjustable Steelcase® Airtouch® workbench with built-in 10" touch screen is connected to the system through the stage floor box.
