The AMX Australia team is still celebrating a sensational CEDIA08 Expo!
Held on the Gold Coast, Queensland from Thursday 31 July – Saturday 2 August 2008, AMX was once again the Gold Sponsor and one of the largest exhibitors on the show floor at CEDIA08. |
 |
In addition to our large presence at the show, AMX Australia held the fourth annual Consultant Executive Briefing (CEB) at Peppers Resort & Spa where over 20 key AV Consultants from across Australia shared ideas, market intelligence and received an insight into the future of AMX.
The HOTSPOT of the AMX Stand was on the Residential Pod where we partnered with EDMI to show how AMX NetLinx Controllers integrate with EDMI Smart Meters. The integration of AMX and EDMI allows the home/business owner to closely monitor their power usage and set-up various automated sequences eg) blinds, light device control to reduce this power usage and cost.
Overall CEDIA08 was a tremendous success and provided a great opportunity to showcase a number of exciting new products that will hit our Australian shores later this year;
Vision2 – IPTV Solution
Inspired 2 Go – Pre-package signage solutions
Octaire Matrix Switchers – 72 Fixed Matrix Switchers
UDM-0808-SIG - Sig Series Multi-Format Distribution Hub
UDM-RX02N - Multi-Format Receiver
UDM-ABB-8-SIG - Audio Breakout Box
