Visionary displays more than 2.000 Final Points AV on IP in resorts World Las Vegas
The tourist complex Resorts World Las Vegas It has become a reference in AV connectivity on IP with a multidisciplinary project with technology from Visionary.
Resorts World Las Vegas, First tourist complex built in the strip of this area, It has 3.506 rooms and suites in three different hotels; More than forty food and drink establishments; A theater with capacity to 5.000 people and a great commercial walk.
Now this installation has become a reference in terms of connectivity with an innovative system By sobre ip which includes audio and network video with technology Visionary.
“Resorts World Las Vegas has built what is probably the largest AV network on IP of its class -E explains Scott Freshman, Director of Visionary Operations. It covers almost all parts of the property, With more than 2.000 end points and growing. The size and scope of the project brought together multiple integrators AV, each responsible for specific areas of the complex and that, Despite being competitors, they have joined for this ambitious and unique project”.
The specialist Technology West Group was selected to coordinate the project, from the design to the implementation of the general AV system to the specifications of the property network.
Richard Reisig, vp. de Technology West Group, He worked directly with World Las Vegas resorts to facilitate the design of the low section (known as ‘The podium‘), of the West tower, The District and of all exterior areas.
“A critical component in a network AV system, which includes more than 2.000 end points of Packetav y 2.000 Qlan channels -Add Reisig-. The number of final points continues to grow as we expand the system. It is a very large network, Designed to supply a bandwidth gigabit without locking, end -to -end, anywhere in the property with Less than one latency millisecond“.
Connectivity in all areas
One of the resort requirements World Las Vegas was that he wanted to connect any complex system anywhere, And therefore the selection of a network -based video solution. “We select Visionary because it provided us with a reliable solution that covered each of the shortcomings and its solid network capabilities”, Subraya Reisig.
Packetav's final points, Exclusive Visionary, They offer a VLAN labeling Device internal. Due to the complexity of the network and the different protocols (video, Glab, Dante, AES67, DMX y control), It is critical to segregate traffic for effective network management.
“With the size and complexity of the network, VLAN labeling was fundamental to us. Especially at the scale we are reaching -he says. You can't have 2.000 devices in a single VLAN network and wait for it to work”.
Performance and reliability
Another innovation in this project has been the creation by Visionary of a wall plate encoder with Bluetooth implemented throughout the system.
As Reisig points out, “Visionary had a HDMI mural plate encoder With VLAN labeling. We contacted them because, Despite being very good we do not need analog audio, sino Bluetooth’, and his team offered to make us a personalized wall plate that incorporated the audio Bluetooth. His flexibility changed the game. Allowed us to reduce the number of ports, switches, energy consumption and general costs when integrating two different products into one”.
This Visionary plate encoder with Bluetooth is the first of its class. Duet Wall Plate Encoder Combine a powerful Vídeo 4K UHD y Dante/AES67 Through a single Gigabit Ethernet port.
Thanks to the use of Bluetooth 5.0 Getting greater scope, faster data performance and reliable connections. Duet Wall Plate Encoder admits the bidirectional connectivity of the smartphones For AV integration of web conferences with CODECs that eliminate an independent bridge hardware.
INTUITIVE AV SYSTEM
Resorts World Las Vegas can now transmit a signal from anywhere in the enclosure and distribute it to the gigantic LED screen (of 9.290 M2, and recognized as one of the largest of its kind in buildings in the United States, More details in Digital off); To the theater, to the casino or any other place of the complex.
All this makes guest experience in Resorts World Las Vegas one of the most technologically advanced. All the rooms of the three hotels of the complex -The Vegas Hilton, Conrad Las Vegas and Crockfords Las Vegas- They have an intuitive AV system, created by One Touch Living.
“The objective of the project was to design the technology of the rooms to improve the experience of the guests -Recuerda Corey Brushia, presidente de One Touch Living-, and create an environment that allowed them to interact in their rooms and with the rest of the complex”.
Visionary technology eliminated the need for a conventional HDBASET matrix, “and allowed us to connect from anywhere to anywhere -he continues -. For example, We can take the content of an executive suite, connect it with a meeting room or a dance hall, or transmit a special event in a villa. The possibilities are infinite”.
Red distribution
National Technology Associates, Las Vegas headquarters, has been responsible for integration in the common areas of the first floor of the complex, including hotel halls, The registration zone, of casino and play, as well as underground levels.
Shane Snell, National Technology Associate projects director, Underline that “One of the biggest challenges of this project has been the scale. The property has almost 2.000 Final video points and thousands of speaker channels. I am not sure that it is possible to distribute those components in another way other than network. Now all systems can communicate with each other because the integration of AV is in the same network. We have standardized visionary and QSC to expedite communication between the components “.
Resorts world las vegas has a immersive theater latest generation, with capacity to 5.000 spectators. World music stars like Celine Dion, Carrie Underwood, Katy Perry and Luke Bryan will be the founding poster heads of the enclosure.
Companies Sceno plus, Specialized in Montreal Headquarters (Canada), It was hired to create the design, y Solotech For the technological integration of theater.
As François Blais highlights, vp. of specialized technology and equipment of SCENO PLUS, “We carry 35 years working on the construction of theaters worldwide and our work is to ensure that everything is coordinated. We want artists to act in this place and tell us: ‘This is one of the best places we have acted, And we want to come back again ’. Visionary allowed us to quickly and effectively manage this large -scale installation”.
Sébastien Larose, SCEENO PLUS AV Designer, Add that “We have more than 150 TV in the theaters. The possibility of putting the content on the network and passing a single CAT5 cable helps us simplify the system. We have visionary end points everywhere because it allows a signal of any location and transmit it to any place of the installation”.
Integration and sustainability
Solotech integrator was selected for the design and construction of the Zouk Nightclub of resorts world las vegas, In the day club Ayu Dayclub and the restaurants and halls that accompany it.
“We have a mixture of screens in all restaurants, Cabañas and Bungalows of the Day Club and the Disco. We have integrated the final points of Visionary in all areas and have simplified control for the guest to choose between the sources and receive the content at those final points”, explica Aaron Beck, Solotch Commercial Development Director.
Visionary's final points use standard POE food. This distinctive feature is directly linked to resort initiatives World Las Vegas.
This is what Reisig points out: “This complex focuses on corporate social responsibility efforts that allow both the community and the environment to win. We use less products with the Duet de Visionary wall plate encoder because it integrates several solutions into one, In addition to using much less energy than competition because it works with standard POE”.
