October 23, 2019 | Volume: 12 | Issue: 20

 
We've had a busy couple of weeks here. Last week I was at New York Digital Signage Week (see videos here), and we had colleagues at the Almo Pro A/V E4 Experience in Atlanta and at the Chase Center in San Francisco, where Samsung hosted an event. Zoomtopia was going on, and we have a lot of coverage, much of which is in this issue.

Scott Tiner has an interesting dive into new wireless technologies that we'll be seeing soon (and a bit already) — 5G and Wi-Fi 6. Check out his column to see how they are going to affect AV products and installs. Dr. Fred Ampel also talks about the choice between going cloud-based with an AV system, or sticking with traditional hardware infrastructure, a choice many tech managers and AV integrators doing work in schools will be making over the next few years.

"It’s all going to be in the cloud" — that’s what researchers seem to be saying to the whole AV/IT world. But let's dive into the hardware vs. software debate, for things are not always what they seem.
