The Schaeffler Group recently expanded its automotive supply operations across Asia Pacific, requiring a new, larger regional headquarters in Singapore.

As part of the fit-out, integration firm Vega Project installed Extron DTP Systems, HC 404 Meeting Space Collaboration Systems, ShareLink Wireless Collaboration Gateways and Pro Series control products for system operation.

Within each of the eight board rooms, three auditoriums and two think-tanks, Vega deployed the same system design. An Extron HC 404 collaboration system feeds a wall-mounted flat panel display, an Extron ShareLink 250W EU gateway connected to the HC 404 receiver’s HDMI input facilitates wireless communication while meeting rooms and breakout spaces required more extensive signal routing capabilities.

Alongside this, an Extron DTP CrossPoint 4K Series presentation matrix switcher provides AV and control signal switching and distribution. Each matrix switcher includes an integrated IP Link Pro control processor and the LinkLicense user interface upgrade, enabling use of an iPad for local system operation and remote monitoring and control.

“Extron systems enable Schaeffler Asia Pacific to conduct meetings and town hall events with superior participant engagement,” Vega Project executive director Angeline Tan says.

Schaeffler IT had final signoff of each design, as well as at the end of each integration phase and system commissioning.

“Throughout the journey from design to implementation, Extron demonstrates their dedication to superior customer service based on factors like response time, logistics, and training support. Their website is also full of resources and easy to navigate; giving Extron an edge over the competition,” Schaeffler IT manager SEA Charles Lee says.
