Educational court rooms Upgrade – overview Centralize IT Resources Around the Campus
Video Wall Solution for UITS Network Opera-
tion Center Room
The college of law has educational court rooms in both
Male and female campuses where we use Audio visual
technology for teaching and learning purposes. It was
hard to continue operating and maintaining the legacy
technology, so we have decided to upgrade the rooms
with the latest technology to enhance the functional and
operational features.
The new system has the capability of fast switching
of multiple inputs selected instead of the old analog
switching. The use of high definition cables enhances the
image quality. The new digital audio conference system
has more floor control options and uses microphone
and speaker units in each user desk for audio discussion.
The new programing of control system for the room
operation added the flexibility for the user to choose
separate inputs either video or presentation on each
display area and the new user interface is very user
friendly. The room operation application is not only
limited to the touch screen but also extended to iPad and
pc which enhances the operational reliability. The video
conference system in the room has now more control and
flexibility, the facility utilizes for delivering lectures and
seminars within the university or between any outside
organizations thus can reduces the travel time, expenses
and can have concurrent teaching and learning sessions
for male and female students.
As a result of the upgrade, the students and teachers can
utilize the state of the art new technology which infuses
a practical court room experience in to the curriculum.
Research and studies proved that Unified IT systems
are able to deliver more consistent services and enable
information sharing. IT service’s consolidation has
become a priority for many organizations as well as for
UAEU. Information and communication technologies
have become commonplace entities in all aspects of
UAEU academic and administrative operations and
playing an important role to achieve their targets
according to UAEU’s vision & mission. IT services
consolidation is a logical and important step for UAEU
in designing a more rational, efficient and resilient
IT infrastructure that can support the on demand
operational model. UAEU have enough resources and
skills that can sustainably optimize UAEU IT Services by
centralization concept: for higher productivity, better
mapping of operational processes, greater security
and stability, optimum availability and minimal
administrative costs. By centralizing IT resources UITS
work as a single team. The IT development, support,
delivery, policies and procedures are treated as a whole
“The IT”.
Realized benefits of centralization:
One of the important goals for UITS is continual service
improvement, The ICT Office (NOC room) was one of
Locations ITSS Team works to enhance the Video system
with latest solutions which Meet current and future
needs. Video wall is special multiple LED-Display tiled
together contiguously to make one large screen. With
a lot of benefits like High performance, 24/7 reliability,
Purpose-built solutions for different needs, Versatility,
Maintenance Ease, Superior long-life performance and
Lowest cost of operation.
The NOC room Video wall consist of 12 Samsung 46
inch professional displays, on each display we installed
Samsung SBB media player. We are using Software-based
PC solution to Control the video wall and for Content
Management. We depended on stand to install the video
wall to ease the possibility of reuse it another place in
the future
