What prompted us to create the core value awards a few years ago was the desire to create a very prestigious award across the firm that would recognize all the great things that our employees do that really tie back to the core values of the firm. It's very humbling to receive this award. I work with so many great people among all of the operations groups. So to receive this award and be honored for my contributions is very humbling. I'm very grateful. I'm really excited and honored to be a core value award winner. For me, it's really a testament and credit to my colleagues and and the team that I work with on a daily basis. It's, you know, really an award that belongs to them as well. It truly is humbling to receive this award. And second, I I wanna say that, I couldn't do this without the support of a wonderful team. We have a great group of individuals who are dedicated, motivated, and they truly care about winning and succeeding together as a team. It means so much. I think it just truly shows me like all the little things and all the hard work that I put in has just amounted to this. And I'm so honored to be the core value award winner and kind of be here today and so it's just exciting. My favorite core value is help each other succeed at work and in life. I joined Weaver about five years ago. And during the interview process, I could tell that there was something different, unique about the firm, and could really tell that they cared about the people. I appreciate most about Weaver's culture is the people. So whether that be the the brand new intern who started on their first day and and they trust me in level one training to to teach them what I know and and go through that journey with them. Or whether it be that partner who I work with all the time and who has empowered me to to run my book of business how however I want to, but also there to catch me when I fall. I think it's really awesome to come in every day and know that I am making a difference with Weber and helping our clients and helping not only internal clients in my position, but also helping them provide exceptional client service to our external clients. And truly knowing that I have a firm behind my back that makes me feel like they're family.

Campus AV-over-IP: a 10GbE switching and one-dashboard control buy

Campus AV-over-IP: a 10GbE switching and one-dashboard control buy

AV refreshes are starting to read more like network procurement decisions. Many designers now specify 10 Gigabit Ethernet for headroom, and campuses want a “single pane of glass” to monitor and control rooms. That shifts cost and risk to the IP network: bandwidth, governance, and the support model.

  • 01Many designers are specifying 10GbE headroom for AV-over-IP devices such as 4K monitors, according to Church Production Magazine, which turns classroom and venue upgrades into a switching and backbone procurement decision.
  • 02IMS Technology Services frames campus-wide standard room packages and a “single pane of glass” for monitoring and control as the support model, fewer room variants means fewer configs, spares, and escalation paths.
  • 03Church Production Magazine points to the cost jump as baseband routers grow from 16x16 to 64x64 and beyond, a pain point that underpins AV-over-IP’s argument for commercial-off-the-shelf switches over vendor-specific distribution hardware.

$1,499 SDM module puts Dante AV Ultra inside the display

$1,499 SDM module puts Dante AV Ultra inside the display

Adtechno’s $1,499 DAV-03SBL is designed for Intel SDM-L displays and projectors, per rAVe [PUBS]. It makes the display the Dante AV Ultra endpoint, which can mean fewer edge boxes but concentrates risk in switching, power, and device management.

  • 01If a display can be the decoder, the RFP shifts from “which wall box?” to “which switch config and management plane?” That’s where risk and labor move.
  • 02A single 1GbE link carrying 4K60 4:4:4 plus embedded audio (per Adtechno via rAVe [PUBS]) makes per-endpoint bandwidth assumptions, uplink sizing, and multicast policy central to planning.
  • 03Adtechno is building a family around Dante AV Ultra, with DAV-02 encoder/decoder (Digital Signage Today) and an SDM module that can standardize endpoints across signage and rooms.
