BOCA RATON, Fla., and LITTLETON, Mass., — South Florida and regional AV system integrators and installers are invited to attend a special training seminar in Boca Raton next month focused on how audio video over internet (AVoIP) is transforming the traditional AV matrix.

The program, presented by ZeeVee, Inc. and NETGEAR and hosted by leading high-end broadband electronic equipment distributor Advanced Media Technologies (AMT), will take place at the Renaissance Boca Raton Hotel on Thursday, November 7 between 1:00 and 5:00pm. Participants will earn 2.5 Certified Technology Specialist (CTS) credits; registration is available via this link.

This is the third training session this year in which ZeeVee has collaborated with NETGEAR—following those held in Berkshire, England (June 13) and at NETGEAR’s San Jose offices in (August 27).

“This training event provides a great opportunity for local integrators to get an overview of AVoIP, including best practices, so that they can transition into this latest technology with more confidence,” said Rob Narzisi, sales manager, enterprise/private networks, AMT. “ZeeVee and NETGEAR, both first movers in AVoIP and founding members of the SDVoE Alliance, will share a wealth of knowledge which those in our industry will not want to miss.” 

The program will open with Joe Chordas, VP, North America Sales and Marketing, ZeeVee, presenting an overview of the latest technologies available to enable IP-based media distribution solutions for applications in many market segments. He will also share several case studies highlighting successful AVoIP integrations.

”The recognition of the advantages of AVoIP for content distribution over the AV matrix continues to grow across many market segments, including education, enterprise, entertainment, sports and medical,” said Chordas. ”This hands-on training session brings together leaders in this technology to arm those specifying and installing systems with the knowledge they need to make the best recommendations for their customers.”

Also presenting at the event will be:

• Art Weeks, director of product management, ZeeVee, who will lead the ”AV over IP Simplified” session which will have participants working with ZeeVee ZyPer4 components to install, configure and deploy a fully-functional IP video distribution system and
• Randy Keener, business development manager ProAV, NETGEAR, who will address ”Today’s Network Switch: Making it Easier Than Ever” that will discuss how NETGEAR’s latest switches fit into driving powerful AV systems
