Crestron today unveiled a table-top meeting room system with Crestron Mercury and its next generation DigitalMedia NVX Series.

The all-in-one meeting room solution enables users to present instant and secure content wirelessly on the room display from a laptop, smart phone, or tablet using built-in Crestron AirMedia. It features built-in, precision-engineered speakers and microphones, and meets the latest enterprise security standards.

Collaboration is made easy via Crestron Mecury from a laptop or dedicated in-room PC using any soft phone, web conferencing or UC application, such as Skype for Business, Cisco WebEx, GotoMeeting, or Slack. Mercury collaboration spaces that are available can be quickly and easily located with the built-in PinPoint proximity beacon on each console, and users can reserve a room using Mercury’s on-screen calendar thanks to seamless integration with Microsoft Exchange.  Facility managers are also able to collect usage data to increase efficient room use thanks to the built-in occupancy sensor.

“As the leader in meeting room control and automation technology, only Crestron addresses all of the challenges that arise as unified communication and collaboration moves from the desktop to the collaboration space,” said Crestron VP of UC Strategy Ted Colton.

“Crestron Mercury provides all of the features collaboration spaces need in a single console, while making it easy, secure, and cost effective for businesses to deploy and manage units wherever needed.”

Crestron is demonstrating Mercury at ISE 2017, stand C24 , as well as introducing its next generation DigitalMedia NVX Series.

The DigitalMedia NVX Series makes it possible to transmit 4K60 4:4:4 HDR video over standard 1GbE with no latency, and has built-in intelligent software to make everything easy to configure, commission and control from the web.

An infinitely scalable network AV solution is provided, from a simple point-to-point setup to thousands of endpoints, and requires only DM NVX Encoders/Decoders. DM NVX Encoders/Decoders provide auto-switching and support Ethernet natively, as well as fibre, with optional SPF modules.

Easy to configure, deploy and manage, the CM NVX has the flexibility to be combined with existing Crestron HDBaseT connectivity and network AV products to deliver content to displays, laptops, tablets and phones anywhere.

“Only DM offers the ability to deliver ‘hybrid’ network AV solutions. Whatever your application and infrastructure needs – point-to-point via HDBaseT or fibre, streaming over an existing data network, or, now, a dedicated standard 1Gb network that delivers the highest image quality and unlimited scalability – DM brings it all together on a single easy-to-manage platform,” said Crestron executive director Steve Samson.
