Integrators use Luxul backbone for the Just Add Power HD-over-IP distribution platform, providing 42 monitors in the AZ sports bar and lounge.
When Night Entertainment Group took over the former Derby public house in the entertainment district of Scottsdale’s Old Town, their vision was to transform its 5,000 square foot dining and terrace space into a chef-made dining venue, sports bar, and craft cocktail lounge. mash up.
The result is Bevvy,
Serving the affluent areas of Scottsdale, Arizona.
For customers who wish to enjoy bar snacks and drinks in a trendy atmosphere, the space is equipped with wooden walls, stained glass, tufted leather booths, shabby chic sofas and antique tin brick ceilings.
In order to create a high-end AV experience for sports fans and turn Bevvy into a game day, Jason Jones and its integration company LTJ Systems have internally upgraded their technology. The company provides sound, video, smart lighting and almost all new technologies.
To ensure that there are no bad guys in the house, LTJ Systems equipped Bevvy with 42 46-inch and 55-inch monitors. The signals for the screen are 13 DirecTV boxes and a Just Add Power VBS-HDIP-759A 3G + 4 + video splicing processor, which can provide up to four inputs in different configurations on one screen.
In order to incorporate other sources as needed, each DJ booth has two inputs, and there are two inputs in the junction box outside the building.
In providing fans with a seamless gaming experience, Bevvy needs a video distribution and switching system that allows staff to independently change the signal source of each screen and send any signal source to any screen or group of screens.
In addition, the system must be very intuitive, allowing any employee to perform these functions with minimal training. The solution implemented by LTJ Systems has proven successful in many other installations of the company: Luxul's network solution combines Just Add Power's HD Over IP platform and DTVGameControl's iPad-based control application.
In order to distribute Bevvy's AV in this resimercial project, LTJ installed Just Add Power's 2GW/3G HD over IP transmitter and receiver. The system supports 4K Ultra HD resolution and HDMI 2.0 devices with HDCP 2.2, and can seamlessly switch between HDMI sources of any resolution and uncompressed lossless multi-channel audio formats.
Any other screen that Bevvy wants to add in the future will only require another small receiver to be added to the system, and only another transmitter will be needed to distribute every other new video source. In order to provide a solid network backbone, LTJ turned to Luxul.
Jones said: "I used Luxul switches for the first time after DTVGameControl recommended them a few years ago. Since then, they have been my first choice." "They are not only more responsive than the devices I used before, but also intuitive The GUI is very easy to set up, and multiple units can be stacked to accommodate the maximum amount of installation.
"And most importantly, they are very reliable, which is very important in sports bars and nightclubs. I haven't had a Luxul switch to fail me; it can't be more reliable than this."
In Bevvy,
Luxul's two 52-port XMS-7048P L2/L3 managed Gigabit PoE+ switches. These devices have 48 PoE+ ports, two Gigabit RJ-45 ports and two Gigabit SFP+ stacking ports, which provide excellent network performance and seamless scalability of up to 16 switches (800 ports) .
Their PoE+ port simplifies the installation of Bevvy, allowing LTJ to use standard Ethernet cables to transmit power and high-speed data.
These switches have Luxul's self-repair function, which provides LTJ with two advanced functions mentioned by Jones: automatic recovery and power dispatch.
With the automatic recovery function, devices connected to the XMS-7048P via PoE do not need to be manually rebooted when they are offline or unresponsive; the configuration in the switch will trigger the PoE connected devices to automatically restart.
With the help of power scheduling, integrators can now trigger the switch according to any schedule they create in the switch to turn on/off the power of devices connected to PoE.
Bevvy employees use an iPad application control system based on the DTVGameControl floor plan. The interface depicts the layout, display position, source, etc. of the sports bar on one screen. Users simply tap a source to select it, select a channel, and tap the screen or screens on which they want to display it.
"Bevvy is very satisfied with their system; guests like the experience it creates, and it couldn't be easier for the staff to operate it," Jones said. "This fully demonstrates the speed and reliability of Luxul's XMS-7048P switcher, because the video distribution system is only as good as the speed and reliability of the network it establishes."
The necessary places have been marked
Enterprises have seen the gospel when implementing IP-based AV technology, and integrators have found satisfied customers when installing IP-based AV technology. In this webinar, you will understand exactly why IP-based AV is needed.
This one-hour webinar will discuss the basics of fiber optic cables, how their bandwidth capabilities support current and future AV formats, and the guidelines for specifying and installing fiber optic cable products.
