PDL Solutions (Europe) Limited

Conference Room One
For the larger of the two rooms an Epson EB-G5750WU projector was selected to be used in the main conference room. This is a full HD projector, providing a native WUXGA resolution of 1920 x 1200 at a light output of 4500 lumens. Not only did this unit provide the high definition resolution that PDL Solutions demanded, but it also provided the company with the flexibility of direct, wireless and network connectivity. This meant that any computer based device could connect to the projector and be viewed on a large screen.

An Extron cable cubby was used to provide a wired interface, offering HDMI, VGA/Audio and Network connectivity. This was populated with the Extron retractor cable system to provide a clean and efficient cable management system.

An Extron MLC 62 MediaLink® Controller was used to provide an easy interface and control of the system.
It offers eight backlit soft touch buttons for a contemporary look and feel. The MLC 62 provides control capabilities for common AV functions including power, input switching, and volume control.

Conference Room Two
For the smaller conference room a Panasonic TH-65PB1E 65″ Interactive Plasma-Display was installed on the wall. This is a full HD display with a native resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and has the extra feature of being an interactive display through the use of an electronic pen. This allows up to four users to simultaneously interact with any PC program by making a contact on the plasma screen.

Michael Williams, Managing Director, PDL Solutions comments: “We were keen to work with Universal because we felt they were a company we could trust to deliver a high end technical solution to the upgrade of our 250 year old Grade II Listed building.”

“Duncan, Mark and the rest of the team gave us loads of support through the process of selecting the major pieces of equipment such as our projector, wall mounted display and screen. But they also helped us work out the all-important details such as ‘where do the controls go’ and ‘how do we manage cabling so that it’s fully integrated’ as the last thing we wanted our clients to see was a mess of wiring.”

“The team worked hard to give us a great result that is easy to use, a high specification and has really helped us deliver a professional meeting experience to our clients. We are really pleased with the service from Universal and would not hesitate to recommend them as an AV partner.”

Mark Atkinson, Branch Manager at Universal AV, Newcastle, commented: “The client now has two conference rooms equipped with high resolution display devices. They are able to provide their clients an environment which is welcoming and relaxing whilst at the same time, has the latest in audio visual technology to showcase the sophisticated work that PDL Solutions provide. The rooms were completed on time, to specification and within budget to the complete satisfaction of the customer.”
