UPDATE: 1:12 p.m. CST

Take a look at some of the Twitter conversation from around the show through two days:

UPDATE: 10:31 a.m. CST

In many cases, the term ‘digital signage’ is an outdated descriptor. LED technology has moved past the wall and is now part of creating a holistic and immersive environment. This example was captured by Tom Custer, Vice President at FRCH Nelson.

UPDATE: 10:25 a.m. CST

eSports has become a major part of the global entertainment landscape in the past few years. This year Blizzard is showing why Pro AV is a natural partner for the competitive gaming atmosphere.

This video comes from Stan Thomas, a Manufacturer Representative for Blizzard and other brands.

Litwin kicked off day two at the AVIXA Women’s Council Breakfast to learn about the state of women in the Pro AV business and what is being done to improve the gender balance in the industry.

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.

Microsoft's MDEP Signage: From NRF Preview to InfoComm Demo

Microsoft's MDEP Signage: From NRF Preview to InfoComm Demo

Microsoft, MediaTek, and IAdea previewed what they described as the first digital signage solution built on Microsoft's Device Ecosystem Platform (MDEP) at NRF 2026 in January, and Avocor and IAdea demonstrated a pairing of MDEP-based signage with Avocor's new B Series displays at InfoComm 2026 in June, according to AV Magazine and invidis. Neither report describes the technology as shipping in commercial deployments.

  • 01MDEP adds identity management, conditional access, device attestation, and centralized lifecycle control to signage displays, enabling management like traditional IT endpoints.
  • 02MediaTek's Genio 720 system-on-chip, used in MDEP previews, provides industrial-grade performance with 10 TOPS AI acceleration and supports up to ultra-wide 5K or dual 2.5K display outputs.
  • 03MDEP-based signage remains in preview and demonstration status as of June 2026; buyers should verify current availability and understand MDEP licensing costs before purchase decisions.
