Connector

Altinex Tilt ‘N Plug Jr. Interconnect Box

The TNP155 and TNP155S Tilt ‘N Plug Jr. Interconnect Boxes by Altinex offer one-touch access to dual-power receptacles as well as two charging USB ports. Easy-to-use tabletop connection devices, the TNP155 (brushed black finish) and TNP155S (clear brushed aluminum) are tools for accessing conventional AC power outlets for the purpose of powering, for example, a notebook PC. Similarly, the dual USB ports are capable of charging smartphones, tablets, and similar USB devices. Both interconnect boxes can be customized with a variety of custom snap-in assemblies—which means less of a chance for paperwork to catch the TNP155’s edges when being passed across a table—so documents remain clean and professional in appearance. The boxes ship with 6ft. USB cables, nine 10ft. power cables, and a 5V 5-port USB charging unit to power the units’ USB ports from underneath the table. www.altinex.com

Streaming System

PESA Xstream C22

PESA’s Xstream C22 compact streaming system can be configured as a two-port video encoder or two-port decoder, or can include one of each. Featuring I/O options for standalone streaming applications or as part of a larger hybrid broadcast system, the Xstream C22 includes HDMI, coax, and Ethernet (for an IP-based camera) video inputs, and optional SFP modules that allow multiple configurations (fiber, HD-BNC, A-to-D, D-to- A and other SFP modules) for expanded connectivity. The C22 also supports two external audio sources, which can be synchronized to either or both video streams during an event. With built-in genlock, video signals can be locked to an external source for glitch-free video switching in broadcast and pro AV applications. An HDMI out allows for local preview, while an integrated Web server allows full remote control. Multiple C22 units can be used to allow AV professionals to compress, stream, and share high-quality content between locations and enable streaming in existing video distribution. www.pesa.com

Projector

BenQ America SX912

BenQ America’s S series line of high-brightness projectors is comprised of the SX912, SH915, and SW916. The line casts up to 5000 lumens of brightness and boasts 11000:1 contrast ratios. Eliminating both light burn and color degradation over extended usage and time, the projectors reduce total cost of ownership while providing XGA (SX912), WXGA (SW916), and native full HD 1080p resolutions (SH915). Additional features include a 1.5x big-zoom lens ratio, while the SW916 adds corner, surface fit, and 2D keystone capabilities. The SX912 projector offers LAN control, and both the SH915 and SW916 add display control. All models provide remote management and control, and multiple projectors can be centrally monitored for simplified maintenance across large facilities. Third-party integration with Crestron, RoomView, and PJLink further simplifies system interoperability. During operation, the projectors can easily display content via a built-in USB reader, as well as wirelessly (SH915 and SW916), allowing users to connect quickly using solid-state media storage drives or through the LAN to enable rapid content access without a PC connection. The S series projectors are fully 3D PC, Blu-ray, and nVidia 3DTV Play ready with all three models providing microphone inputs for more streamlined presentations in addition to an audio pass-through function that preserves lamp life by enabling only sound when no image is needed. www.benq.us
