Vistacom Tech Expo 2023: Streamlining AV Connectivity with Sound Control Technologies

Hi. Chris Odette Sound Control Technologies. Sound Control Technologies is the manufacturer based out of Norwalk, Connecticut. We've been in business since nineteen eighty seven. Primarily what we do is we support anybody's pan tilt zoom camera to on the market, and we are providing the power for that camera. The control for that camera and the video for that camera on a single category cable up to a hundred meters. So some of the challenges in the industry are How do we get the signaling from cameras, from codecs as it relates to video conferencing? A significant distance. Those signals that are being transported from these devices, sometimes they're proprietary, sometimes they're not, but even standardized signals like HDMI, the ability to move microphone data. All of those signals might be proprietary to the device that we're connected to. So we're picking up that proprietary nature, encoding it, putting on a category cable we get it down that category up to a hundred meters, and we reconnect to the device on the other end, solving that cable problem, for integrators like Vistacom, that need to transport the signal without running multiple cables and introducing failures over time. So today, we're showing camera extension solutions. We're showing, USB Switching solutions, which is a really big deal when we're talking about bringing your own device environments that are being deployed, whether it's teams or zooms or and Webex. We're also showing our ability to take the backplane of a Cisco or Poly Kodak and transport that up to a hundred meters on a single category cable for microphone, ethernet, and power for a touch panel. HDMI and USB BYOD. My role at Sound Control Technologies is business development, which is the title at more or less everyone at Sound Control Technologies holds because no matter what your role is at Sound Control, that's what you're doing.
