The modern-day office space is getting a shake-up. Gone are the days of gray cubicles and harsh, fluorescent-lit office floors. Contemporary workspaces are seeing a monumental shift in style, design and function, with innovative tech companies like Google and Apple leading the charge.

Silicon Valley start-ups are drafting up corporate campuses that focus on collaboration, play, innovation and superior user experience. So who helps create these workplaces and infuse them with technology, audio and visuals that enhance workflow, not detract from it?

People like Sean McChesney, Experience Technology Consultant for Electrosonic, that’s who. McChesney joins this episode of Fusion to discuss experiential technology in the workplace, elaborating on projects he’s worked on and rising trends he sees developing in the present-day workplace.

With the tech-native Generation Z entering the workforce, offices are focusing more than ever before on seamless user experience. As McChesney puts it, Gen-Z employees are expecting “the iPhone experience” from their workspace, with tech not just for the sake of tech, but intelligently designed for usefulness.

McChesney said implementing well-thought-out AV starts at the foundation, often collaborating with engineers and architects to ensure the company, its employees and guests get what they need from their spaces. This holistic approach fosters long term relationships and has led McChesney to work on projects with esteemed corporations.

At the heart of it all is “collaboration,” McChesney said. Regardless of a company’s size, workplaces are about getting teams in a space where “person to person innovation” happens.

What tech can play a part in fostering play, while aiding in high-output of innovation? By intelligently designing based on data collection, McChesney and Electrosonic craft a customized workspace that suits each company’s needs, budget and use cases.

Atlona's Omega 2 puts 4K video, USB and Ethernet on one Cat 6A cable

Atlona's Omega 2 puts 4K video, USB and Ethernet on one Cat 6A cable

TWICE reports that Atlona added Omega 2 to its Omega Series on Oct. 22, 2026. According to Atlona, the HDBaseT 3.0 lineup carries uncompressed 4K/60 4:4:4 video, USB 2.0 data and Gigabit Ethernet over a single Cat 6A cable at distances up to 330 feet. The company says presenters get one cable and integrators get fewer boxes behind the display.

  • 01Omega products shown in 2019 were rated for up to 330 feet. Atlona says Omega 2, which uses HDBaseT 3.0, moves uncompressed 4K/60 4:4:4 video plus USB 2.0 data and Gigabit Ethernet across a single Cat 6A cable for distances up to 330 feet.
  • 02On the AT-OME2-E2311 transmitter and AT-OME2-D2311 receiver, bi-directional Power over HDBaseT lets either end power the other, so the link runs on one power supply, according to TWICE. That could mean one fewer power supply to mount behind a display.
  • 03Two models, the AT-OME2-E2311 transmitter and the AT-OME2-D2311 receiver, are already available. Atlona expects the AT-OME2-E2321-WP wall plate and the AT-OME2-R2742 switcher to begin shipping in mid-November.
