Audio Video Term

Video Distribution

Video Distribution is an audio video term for Chicago-area smart home, theater, and commercial AV projects.

Video Distribution is the method of routing video signals from sources to one or more displays using a matrix, extender, network, or AV-over-IP system.

Example of Video Distribution

A centralized Apple TV, cable box, or media player can be routed to the kitchen, bedroom, theater, or patio with the correct remote controls in each room. In that kind of Davis distributed video project, the term Video Distribution would describe the method of routing video signals from sources to one or more displays using a matrix, extender, network, or AV-over-IP system. Davis would use that understanding to account for source locations, matrix or switching equipment, cabling, remotes, and room-by-room source access, then test the result in the actual room, document the related components, and show the client how to use the feature without needing to manage the technical details behind it.
