Integrated Audio Visual & Background Music Systems

Audio Visual Systems within the Hospitality environment today now cover all areas within the Large Venues, Hotels and Resorts rather than just the more traditional Public Areas, Ballrooms and Meeting Rooms. In doing so, it now encompasses many more applications than it has done in the past.

The Integrated Audio Visual Consultants responsibility now extends to the following:

• Audio Visual Systems for Public Spaces, Ballrooms, Pre-Function Areas, Meeting Rooms and Conference Facilities • Guest Room and Suites Entertainment Systems• Enhanced Background Music Systems• Digital Signage Systems

Audio Visual Systems were historically stand-alone systems in their design but there are benefi ts to them becoming fully integrated with the Hotel IP Wired and Wireless Network. This allows for the sharing of Backbone Infrastructure, and also the Active Network Equipment which can signifi cantly assist with non-duplication of Active and Passive Infrastructure combined with reducing costs for the systems.

Spartan Comms use their years of experience in the Audio Visual fi eld, to provide quality Audio Visual Solutions that best serve your Project requirements.

We integrate AV Systems Control with that of other related Technical Systems. Control links can also be integrated within other Communication Systems or be confi gured as stand-alone systems.

Depending on your Project needs we can also provide comprehensive engineering detail and contract specifi cations for all types of specialised AV equipment from Data, Graphics, Video and Film Projectors, Laser Pointers, Data Tablets and Overhead Projectors to name but a few of the increasing array of AV Presentation equipment available to make maximum use of your Facilities.

Our expertise in the design of all these systems ensures a coordinated, easy to use, Control System with maximum fl exibility for future growth.
