Auditoriums and lecture halls

Auditoriums and lecture halls, long a mainstay of education institutions everywhere, got a refresh when hybrid technologies were introduced.

Extend the lecture experience beyond the physical space

Today, adding remote participants to lecture halls is a must. But providing a natural hybrid experience for participants, while enabling lecturers to continue with their preferred ways of teaching habits, is far from simple. The requirements may vary depending on the design, architecture and focus of the campus, but all demand easy connectivity, top-quality audio and video that can be clearly heard and seen by everyone, and easy content sharing.

At Kramer, we offer a wide range of flexible solutions for lecture halls and auditoriums, tailormade to meet specific needs. Our platform-agnostic, open architecture approach enables continued utilization of legacy devices, while providing a coherent, professional solution. With wide-view video, best-in-class audio, easy connectivity from any device, and simple content sharing by everyone, we help extend the lecture experience beyond the physical space.

Sennheiser and Kramer partner to deliver video conferencing solution with outstanding sound quality

Respective industry leaders harmonize to take hybrid meetings to new heights

Barcelona, Spain, February 1, 2023: Kramer, the leading audio-visual experiences company, has partnered with world-renowned audio experts Sennheiser to create an assured, flexible, and easily deployed audio solution for optimized hybrid teleconferencing.

Officially launching at the organizations’ ISE 2023 booths (Kramer 3B300, Sennheiser 3C600), the new solution combines Kramer’s AFM-DSP20-AEC audio matrix switcher with Sennheiser TeamConnect Ceiling 2 (TCC2) and TeamConnect Ceiling Medium (TCC M) ceiling microphones. This collaboration delivers premium-quality sound while providing an immersive, engaging, and inclusive audio-visual experience in any medium or large space.

Kramer’s partnership with audio technology leader Sennheiser is part of the company’s drive to expand the Kramer ecosystem, offering ultra-immersive user experiences in hybrid meeting and learning spaces and expanded flexibility for its customers and partners.

Engaging, immersive hybrid meeting experiences

The combination of Kramer’s best-in-class digital signal processor (DSP) and the premium performance of Sennheiser’s TCC2 and TCC M ceiling microphones ensures all participants are clearly heard for easy collaboration, efficient learning, and more productive meetings.

The Kramer DSP maintains the quality of the original audio signal with selectable sampling rates up to 96 kHz, ensuring flat frequency response, unmatched sonic performance, excellent signal-to-noise ratio, and extraordinarily low distortion levels. Meanwhile, acoustic echo cancellation further improves teleconferencing sound quality. With all in-room and remote participants able to hear and be heard, meetings can proceed smoothly and effectively.

The collaboration also offers simplified audio and room-wide control. It supports Audinate’s Dante and can be operable by Kramer Control, enabling full automation of the microphones along with other room elements, such as screens, lights, and shades, via a simple click. By removing the time and hassle required to manage a meeting space or classroom, participants can focus on holding their most productive, immersive hybrid calls and lessons yet.

Simple deployment within any working or learning space

The vendor-agnostic design of the Sennheiser microphone and Kramer DSP, dual digital and analog connectivity, and centralized control make a unique solution for everyday use flexible and simple.

As a result, the combined Kramer-Sennheiser solution is ideal for any medium to large classrooms, lecture spaces, and meeting rooms where intelligible speech, simple handling, and seamless integration into the existing room environment are required. Both the Sennheiser ceiling microphone and the Kramer DSP are supported by Kramer’s proven low-latency video infrastructure, providing full configuration and installation flexibility.

Assured reliability and accessible support

Millions of Kramer and Sennheiser products are already installed and in use across the globe, trusted by mission-critical organizations for their quality and reliability. The Sennheiser TCC2 and TCC M microphones and Kramer AFM-DSP20-AEC audio matrix switcher solution are no different, having been cross-certified for compatibility to ensure superior audio performance.

The components of the combined solution are available directly from the global sales networks of Kramer and Sennheiser respectively. The solution is supported by the two companies’ industry-leading, worldwide support networks, enabling end-users to easily access any help or advice if required.

Gilad Yron, CEO of Kramer, said: “It’s a beautiful experience when two audio-visual heavyweights, like Kramer and Sennheiser, come together to create a solution that transcends our respective specialisms. This combined expertise will help to power creativity, collaboration, and engagement within both meeting and education spaces worldwide – and with a wealth of innovations from both companies already shaping the audio-visual experiences of the future, we hope this is the first collaboration of many.”

Charlie Jones, Global Alliance & Partnership Manager, Business Communication, at Sennheiser said: “At Sennheiser, we’re proud to combine our renowned audio expertise with Kramer’s reliability and ease of use to bring this solution to the market. This is only the first step, as both companies continue to grow our unified communications portfolios and expand our partnership into new meeting room sizes. ISE attendees should make plans to stop by our booths, Sennheiser at 3C600 and Kramer at 3B300, to see the fruits of this partnership come to life.”

Kramer and Samsung team up to transform smart learning and meeting collaboration experiences

Audio-visual industry leaders create the perfect environment for effortless collaboration and optimized productivity

Barcelona, Spain, January 31, 2023: Kramer, the leading audio-visual experiences pioneer, and Samsung, the world’s premier display manufacturer, today announce the certified compatibility of Kramer’s quicklaunch™ collaboration software with Samsung’s Flip Pro and QMB display series.

Officially unveiled at Kramer’s ISE booth (Booth 3B300, Area A), and at Samsung ISE booth (Booth 3F600). This cross-certified solution creates immersive smart learning and meeting collaboration experiences in any type of classroom or office meeting space. It delivers high-quality video and audio, enriched with professional features and intuitive design, to elevate innovation, efficiency, and collaboration in business and education environments.

Kramer’s partnership with Samsung is another significant step in its drive to expand the Kramer ecosystem, enabling enriched collaborative work and learning experiences and offering expanded flexibility for customers and partners.

Effortless collaboration, enhanced productivity and efficient deployment

With quicklaunch™, end-users can launch and control any meeting quickly and securely, regardless of the conferencing provider. The all-in-one interface streamlines AV and room control, providing a standardized experience across all collaboration spaces. The high image quality of Samsung’s Flip Pro and QMB displays allows for easy and clear information sharing, while the non-glare designs provide better visibility from all angles, any time of day, and a clean cable guide reduces distractions.

The complementary strengths of Kramer’s quicklaunch™ and Samsung’s displays offer easy and cost-efficient deployment of new collaboration spaces. Kramer quicklaunch™ can be instantly deployed to multiple Samsung Flip Pro and QMB displays and spaces using the mass deployment utility, organizations can simultaneously customize the user interface for multiple spaces, simplifying and speeding up installation. Additionally, organizations can build a fully agnostic room solution, utilizing Kramer’s wider suite of products for advanced and efficient collaboration.

The complementary strengths of Kramer’s quicklaunch™ and Samsung’s displays support end-users to deploy new collaboration spaces and modernize existing ones quickly and cost-effectively. The solution supports interactive and non-interactive displays with multiple connectivity options, including USB, HDMI, and DP, as well as NUC and OPS, to fit any physical requirements.

Robust security and simplified management

Security and management are also key factors of this solution. quicklaunch™ ensures no data remains in the meeting room once a session ends and is fully compliant with security requirements for all supported conferencing platforms. This ensures personal information is fully protected throughout a meeting. The Samsung Tizen Zero Config enables easy operation of multiple units across different locations, plus the remote installation of new apps, providing flexible customization, standardization, and management of all spaces, from anywhere.

Gilad Yron, CEO of Kramer, said: “Our collaboration with Samsung reflects the levels of collaboration we hope to enable within our end-users – seamless, intuitive, and above all, effective. Cross-certifying quicklaunch™ with Samsung’s fantastic Flip Pro and QMB display series was an easy decision, particularly aligned with our open ecosystem strategy. We can’t wait to see this new alliance power creativity, engagement, and connections between people and organizations worldwide.”

Andy Haywood, Head of Global Sales (Europe) at Samsung said: “The future of collaboration requires both immersive, engaging audio-visual technology and the flexibility for end-users to communicate via their preferred space and platform. So, a strategic partnership with Kramer is a match made in heaven. We’re very proud to play a role in the exciting ideas, developments, and innovations that our combined technologies will help to cultivate.”

Yealink and Kramer partner to enhance the audio-visual collaboration experience in hybrid meeting spaces

Leading industry players take AV collaboration e perience to outstanding new levels

ISE, Barcelona, January 31, 2023 – Kramer, the leading audio-visual experiences company, has today announced its partnership with video conferencing, voice communication, and collaboration technology manufacturer Yealink, to enrich the audio-visual collaboration experience in hybrid meeting spaces.

Officially announced at Kramer’s ISE booth (Booth 3B300, Area A), the cross-certified collaboration solution for Microsoft Teams Rooms integrates Kramer’s BRAINware, VIA Go2, and VIA Connect2 with Yealink MVC II room systems. This elevates the level of video conferencing and content collaboration ease and flexibility while also vastly improving meeting effectiveness and user experience.

The partnership with Yealink supports Kramer’s overall goal of expanding its global ecosystem. It aims to empower seamless, immersive collaborative work and learning experiences, while opening opportunities for expanded flexibility for customers and partners.

Effortless configuration and set-up

The cloud-based BRAINware builder, the comprehensive master library of configurable dashboards and distributed control architecture ensure no prior knowledge of programming is necessary, allowing users to deploy any device simply across multiple rooms.

By simply connecting through a designated URL, communication between the Yealink MVC II room system and BRAINware is automatically available on the MTouch II touch panel for easy control at the touch of a finger.

Simple management from a single touchpoint

Through the seamless connectivity between Kramer’s BRAINware and Yealink’s MVC II room systems, meeting leaders can now wirelessly and effortlessly control the Microsoft Teams meeting and in-room control functionality for elements like lighting and shades through one single touch panel.

Ideal for meeting rooms of any size, from huddle rooms to extra-large meeting rooms, users can now enjoy a consistent room control experience regardless of the space they are in.

By utilizing a single touch panel for the controls, the collaborative solution not only supports multiple rooms or display types but also minimizes the control devices needed in each room, helping users reduce additional hardware costs.

Assured reliability and quality performance

The cross-certified solution, integrating Yealink MVC II room systems and Kramer’s BRAINware for room control, VIA Go2, and Via Connect2 for wireless collaboration, guarantees the highest stability and interoperability.

Coupled with the easy-to-use touch panel, users can now work with confidence that the room control solutions will work reliably and smoothly, reducing the occurrence of user errors and the need for support calls.

Aviv Ron, Vice President, Corporate Development & Strategy at Kramer, said: “Kramer’s partnership with Yealink is exciting because together we are breaking boundaries to provide the best, most innovative audio-visual experiences in the world. Brought together by a common goal of bringing people closer together and improving communication efficiency while keeping costs low, this partnership combines Yealink’s world-leading UCC solutions, together with Kramer’s broad portfolio of best-in-class wireless innovations and simplified platform.

Kramer to launch major audio-visual innovations at ISE 2023

Products, solutions, and services take hybrid creativity, collaboration, and engagement to unprecedented new heights

ISE, January 31, 2023: Kramer, the leading audio-visual experiences company, today reveals its 2023 generation of engagement technologies at ISE, Booth 3B300, Area A.

Kramer’s strategy and vision for the future, first launched at last year’s ISE, is now firmly in action. The company is fast becoming the ‘all-round choice’ for audio-visual customers. By listening to their needs, identifying pain points, pioneering an open ecosystem, and focusing on ease of use, Kramer is bringing several innovative, future-proofed products and solutions to the market that seamlessly power collaboration and engagement.

Expanded collaboration applications

Firstly, Kramer is launching the fourth generation of its VIA wireless content collaboration platform, to address the new needs of today’s hybrid world and simplify integration into IT environments. With the newly designed VIA 4.0 interface, joining a meeting and sharing content wirelessly are quick and effortless. Participants are connected through the secured VIA hotspot and other collaboration devices, and when the session ends, the presenter and presented content are automatically disconnected, ensuring data privacy and security. 

Kramer will also showcase quicklaunch™ EDU, a simple, secure, and customizable teaching software solution designed specifically for education needs. quicklaunch™ EDU features an easy-to-use interface for quick access to all required teaching tools, class schedule information, personal user sign-in, and can be used with Zoom services. It’s based on the success of the existing quicklaunch™ Enterprise platform, an ultra-fast and secure way for organizations to launch and control any meeting regardless of conferencing provider, which will also be exhibited at ISE 2023.

Enhanced audio-visual signal management

Kramer’s new Series 3 portfolio of fully interoperable, advanced audio-visual signal management will include matrices, switchers, extenders, distribution amplifiers, and multiviewers. These Series 3 products now support long-distance, end-to-end 4K60 4:4:4 video transmission from remote devices and fast switching (<1sec) for mission-critical applications. This new series-based approach to AV distribution makes it simpler than ever to design, configure, and manage complete audio-visual solutions with total ease and peace of mind.

High-performance open-standard AVoIP

Also on show at ISE is Kramer KDS-100, the complete and versatile AVoIP streaming solution for 1GE (1Gbps) networks that makes the most of the H.264/265 open standard. KDS-100 is ideal for any space or use case requiring low-latency, high-quality video presentation up to 4K60 4:4:4, such as operations rooms, university auditoriums, highly secure command, and control centers, and AVoIP distribution deployments. KDS-100’s minimal bandwidth means it can be deployed over existing infrastructure, saving tremendous costs for both end users and integrators.

Agile control experiences

Understanding the importance of agility and simplicity for all Control needs, the updated
Kramer Control platform enables the set-up and customization of in-room experiences in minutes, with zero programming. It offers numerous new space-specific templates, a first-ever drag & drop interface, and control of any AV and room automation device via the cloud or on-premises. Plus, an advanced dashboard now powers organic analytics and the delivery of organization insights, customized alerts, room usage, device status, remote control, and much more.

Simplified connectivity solutions

Kramer will also showcase its expanded portfolio of enhanced USB-C products. The premium-grade CONNECT USB-C range now features passive, active and AOC (hybrid) cables up to 50m long, offering exceptionally long-distance transmission of 4K60 video and 10 Gbps data, 60W charging, Ethernet over USB-C, and more. The range is available in a versatile array of subsets, with flexible toolsets enabling users to connect any setup and blend of devices, at any distance, and only pay for what they need. Meanwhile, the unique Kramer K-Lock keeps all CONNECT USB-C cables firmly connected, minimizing the effects of prolonged tensile forces and resisting 4X pulling force to prevent accidental disconnection.

And finally, Kramer’s new portfolio of Customer Services brings the unmatched knowledge and expertise of Kramer engineers to organizations worldwide. Kramer Customer Services comprises tailored support for every stage of audio-visual development, from design to installation, programming, configuration, commissioning, and troubleshooting, to extended warranties and professional training. It brings customers best-in-class knowledge of the audio-visual ecosystem and proven methods to optimize the success of every installation and project.

Gilad Yron, CEO of Kramer, said: “Not even 10 months have passed since last year’s ISE exhibition, but judging by the technological leaps taken by Kramer and our peers, you’d think it had been 10 years. The audio-visual landscape is continuing to undergo an extraordinary transformation, so I’m proud that Kramer has cemented itself at the forefront of the industry through our latest collection of audio-visual innovations. It’s fantastic to see our strategic investment into understanding the day-to-day needs of end-users, fostering an interoperable, open product ecosystem, and creating solutions that are easy to implement and easy to use, make a real difference globally.

We’re now ready to boost the audio-visual capabilities and success of organizations across any sector worldwide. And while Kramer’s technologies are also designed for remote, hybrid communication, I always look forward to meeting ISE attendees in person – and walking them through our exciting audio-visual developments myself.”

Kramer at ISE 

The ISE exhibition will take place at the Fira Barcelona Gran Via Conference Center in Barcelona, Spain, from 31st January – 3rd February 2023. Kramer will be exhibiting at Booth 3B300 in Area A and will hold a special media event at 11 am CET on 1st February, in which Gilad Yron will officially launch Kramer’s latest breakthrough products, solutions, and partnerships.
