Empowering Collaboration with Seamless Microsoft Teams Integration
Perkbox sought to enhance their meeting spaces with a unified, user-friendly AV solution that would streamline communication and support hybrid working. Partnering with ITSL Group, they implemented a comprehensive Yealink Teams Rooms setup, transforming their meeting environments into efficient, collaborative spaces.
Client Requirements
Future-Ready Offices with Seamless Hybrid AV
The Borough’s new landmark town hall in Whitechapel required an extensive set-up of audio visual technology across various spaces. The infrastructure had to support a hybrid meeting solution, integrating into their Office 365 ecosystem. The main requirement involved 15 spaces, a mix of Hybrid Meeting Rooms and Dedicated Space Meeting Rooms. These required varying numbers of 4K screens and Teams Panel door panels, depending on their size and function.
The AV solution had to accommodate Zoom to MS Teams invites, if necessary. Additional “nice-to-have” specifications included smart framing and speaker tracking, optimised audio and room-specific camera and networking configurations. There was an overarching requirement for a cloud-hosted digital signage system and a total of 27 display screens for communication purposes across the building. Lastly, we were asked to install 3 large screens in a committee room.
Our Solution
Smart Meeting Spaces. Simplified Control.
AVolution upgraded Perkbox’s meeting rooms for seamless hybrid collaboration. Large rooms feature Yealink MVC systems with UVC86 cameras, VCM36 microphones, and MSpeaker II soundbars, while smaller rooms use MeetingBar A30/A40 video bars. Touch panels inside and outside each room enable easy booking via Microsoft Exchange. All cabling is discreetly hidden, creating a clean finish. Using Perkbox’s floor plans, AVolution delivered the project efficiently and on schedule.
