AV integrators and professionals can gain AV-over-IP insight, AVIXA CTS Renewal Units with technology training program

Montreal — 6 February 2018 — Matrox® Graphics Inc. today announced that the “Matrox Knowledge Net: Tips and Techniques for AV-over-IP Training Program” is now accredited by the Audiovisual and Integrated Experience Association (AVIXA™). As an AVIXA Certified Technology Specialist™ (CTS®) Renewal Unit (RU)-recognized program, these Knowledge Net seminars are formatted to meet the high ethical and professional practice standards of the AV industry.

Matrox is committed to providing AV professionals with exposure to the latest topics and best practices, plus hands-on opportunities in AV-over-IP deployments.

Defined as an educational-focused program, the Matrox Knowledge Net training allows attendees to accumulate RUs in short, yet highly informative seminars—much quicker than in typical manufacturer-focused classes. The Knowledge Net will cover the following topics:

• Fundamentals of AV/IP
• Exploring streaming protocols
• Joining the end-points
• Exploring and understanding image properties and sampling
• Understanding scaling of the distributed image
• Understanding compression

“The new AVIXA accreditation is a testament to the concerted efforts of our in-house industry experts, who are well-versed in the latest trends and developments, and willing to share their knowledge on all things AV over IP,” Cecilia Wills, country manager, Matrox Graphics Inc. “This is especially critical in the face of competing ‘truths’ in the industry, where AV professionals are constantly trying to separate fact from fiction. The Knowledge Net provides an opportunity for attendees to address these gaps, with an eye on their AV-over-IP road maps and installations.”
