As the opening bell of ISE 2017 sounds, Atlona is pleased to announce its formation
of a Technology Alliance with Sennheiser, one of the world’s leading manufacturers
of installed microphones, conference systems, and wireless transmission systems.
The Technology Alliance Member agreement is an important element of the
Sennheiser Global Alliances program, which represents strategic partnerships with
technology-driven companies and vendors like Atlona that share a common goal of
simplifying a customer’s daily business. This is made possible by creating a one-
stop solution for business communication needs.
The Atlona and Sennheiser partnership focuses on the confirmed interoperability
between the Atlona AT-UHD-HDVS-300-KIT and the Sennheiser TeamConnect
Wireless Conference System. The interoperability between the two systems will be
on display at Atlona’s ISE stand (5-S92) this week at the RAI Exhibition Centre in
Amsterdam.
“Atlona strives to serve our global customer base with forward-looking, complete
solutions that both simplify and enhance the way people work in a variety of AV
environments,’ said Ronni Guggenheim, General Manager, Atlona. “This strategic
partnership with Sennheiser unleashes the full power of our advanced, innovative
soft codec solution, and provides businesses with a simpler way to instantly provide
a professional-sounding online meeting from any networked location. It underlines
the importance of providing an ecosystem approach to make the integration more
easy and reliable.’
Introduced last year, the Atlona AT-UHD-HDVS-300-KIT is the industry’s first
HDBaseT-equipped collaboration system to provide 4K AV switching, USB and HDMI
extension and system control for PC-based conferencing using Skype for Business,
WebEx and GoToMeeting cloud services. The two-piece system consists of the AT-
UHD-HDVS-300-TX, which serves as the conferencing hub, video switch, and
HDBaseT transmitter; and the AT-UHD-HDVS-300-RX, which receives the HDBaseT
signal and delivers an HDMI signal to the display.
The AT-UHD-HDVS-300-KIT is also the industry’s first soft codec conferencing
system to enable a single category cable connection between a conferencing hub
and a 4K display, together with a USB-equipped video conferencing camera and/or
microphone. This functionality supports connectivity with the Sennheiser TC-W,
which provides the USB microphone and speaker that communicates with the Atlona
transmitter and receiver.
The Sennheiser TeamConnect Wireless case set is a portable wireless conference
system that provides excellent sound and high speech intelligibility for online
meetings. The system delivers multiple connectivity options with any laptop, smart
device or video conferencing system via USB (as well as Bluetooth and a 3.5mm
jack), making it a highly flexible asset to support all Unified Communications
demands.
“This strategic partnership offers an ideal solution for flexible meeting rooms with
up to 24 participants, while greatly simplifying overall system design and
installation based on the seamless interoperability across Atlona and Sennheiser,’
said Nick Pemberton, Manager, Global Strategic Alliances for Sennheiser Business
Communication. “Atlona’s strong and unique innovation for emerging online
videoconferencing needs make them a perfect partner for Sennheiser and its global
customer base.’
