Whether you’re building new, renovating or fixing systems that never quite worked, AVITCON brings AV, IT and security expertise to your side of the project.
01
Owner’s advocate for AV & IT designs
Architects, engineers and integrators each see part of the picture. We look at the whole thing, on your behalf.
We review AV and IT designs at each stage, ask the questions that prevent expensive change orders, and make sure the finished rooms and systems match how your people actually work.
What’s included
- Needs assessment and project scoping
- Review of AV, network and security drawings and specifications
- RFP and bid documents, and evaluation of contractor proposals
- Value engineering that cuts cost without cutting capability
- Construction-phase oversight and submittal review
- Commissioning, punch lists and final acceptance
02
IT & AV networking
Today’s AV systems are network systems. They need to be designed with IT, not around it.
We bridge the gap between AV integrators and IT departments so streaming video, networked audio, conferencing and control systems perform reliably and stay secure and supportable.
What’s included
- AV-over-IP design (Dante, NDI and other platforms)
- VLAN, QoS and multicast planning
- Coordination between AV integrators and IT teams
- Conferencing and collaboration room networking
- Remote monitoring and management access
- Network security for AV and building systems
03
Network infrastructure
Everything else depends on the cabling, switching and wireless underneath it.
We plan infrastructure that handles today’s demands with room to grow, and document it clearly so your team, or the next contractor, can maintain it.
What’s included
- Structured cabling design, copper and fiber
- Switching and Wi-Fi design and coverage planning
- MDF/IDF and telecom room layout, power and cooling
- PoE budgeting for cameras, access points and AV
- Existing network assessments and upgrade roadmaps
- Labeling standards and as-built documentation
04
Security cameras
Good camera coverage comes from the right design, not just more cameras.
We design camera systems around what you actually need to see, then size the recording, storage and network to support them, and give you a clear basis for comparing installer bids.
What’s included
- Site surveys and camera placement plans
- Camera and lens selection for each location
- Video management (VMS) and recorder selection
- Storage and retention sizing
- Network and PoE design for camera systems
- Installer proposal review and system acceptance
