Legrand | AV Residential announces the lineup of smart home brands to make an appearance at CEDIA Expo 2019-- namely Chief, Da-Lite, Luxul, Middle Atlantic Products, Nuvo, On-Q, QMotion, Sanus and Vantage.
“At CEDIA Expo 2019, visitors to our booth will see how all of our brands come together in solutions vignettes making the smart home a reality – from audio, human-centric lighting, and networking systems to mounts and enclosures,” the company says. “In addition, we’ll be presenting new products, services and show specials, and a variety of training courses integrators can attend. It’s all happening in Denver, and we can’t wait to see you there.”
Nuvo covers audio solutions with the rack-mount Professional Series Players able to deliver sound to three zones. The company will also show off architectural passive subwoofer and subwoofer amplifiers. Designed for home cinema, the three compact single and dual subwoofers deliver low-frequency impact, while the wall- and rack-mount amps promises "maximum versatility."
Vantage demonstrates interactive human-centric lighting (HCL) with precise dimming, colour control and tuneable lighting bringing a mix of natural and artificial light. The company also highlights partnerships with manufacturers creating end-to-end systems combining Vantage control solutions with tuneable light fixtures using the Lumenetic araya5 light engine. In addition, Vantage will debut the EasyTouch Glass Keypad Station and other lighting solutions, including On-Q RF Smart Lighting Control.
Displaying the Qbasic+ field-upgradeable solutions, QMotion covers shading solutions for the home. A flexible solution for installers, the Qbasic+ can be upgraded from manual to motorised quickly, without need to change fabrics or reinstall brackets. QMotion will also show new fabric style, texture and colour options, including decorative light-filtering and matching room-darkening collections.
Luxul offers home networking with the introduction of a remote cloud management solution for installers. The solution is a free service allowing installers to manage customer systems remotely. Luxul will also exhibit a full range of routers, wireless access points, managed gigabit switches, controllers and the Easy Setup App.
Infrastructure solutions come through the Middle Atlantic Forward family for the BGR series. Designed around an innovative new rackrail and the brand's universal mounting pattern, customers can quickly install black and vent panels, cable management, lighting and other solutions without need for tools. Middle Atlantic will also show off two residential power solutions, the Select series PDU with Racklink and the High-Power DC Power Distribution series.
Da-Lite brings projection as it showcases the Parallax Pure family of ambient light rejection surfaces. The Parallax Stratos 1.0 ALR surface rejects 80% of ambient light with 1.0 gain for standard throw projectors, and scales as high as 16 feet in one seamless sheet of fabric. Highlighted projector mounts include the Chief VCT series, with a slim design for large projectors. VCT provides micro adjustments using Chief tool-free Microzone adjustment to ensure accurate and reliable image registration.
Mounting specialist Sanus brings the Advanced Full-Motion Premium TV mounts, combining a brushed metal exterior with a solid steel frame, low profile, FluidMotion design and Steady Set functionality. The company also highlights a selection of wireless speaker mounts, stands and bases, as well as the exclusive Black series and Chief outdoor mounts, in-wall storage and additional mounting accessories.
On-Q exhibits enhanced wifi-ready plastic enclosures, offering a backbone for the smart home by consolidating and distributing foundational wired services for video, voice and data while integrating smart hubs and wireless devices. On-Q HDMI and AV In-Wall Power Kits, connectivity, and other home cinema solutions will also be on show.
“At CEDIA Expo 2019, visitors to our booth will see how all of our brands come together in solutions vignettes making the smart home a reality-- from audio, human-centric lighting, and networking systems to mounts and enclosures,” the company concludes.
