Boxlight Announces Integrated AV Campus Communication Solution

Boxlight Corporation , a leading provider of interactive technology, digital signage, classroom audio, and services, announces an integrated AV campus communication solution, ATTENTION!, enabling announcements, bells, and alerts to be delivered as both audio and video simultaneously to every display and speaker in a school.

Messages and alerts can be broadcast simultaneously to every Mimio® or Clevertouch® display, every FrontRow™ classroom audio endpoint, and every common area speaker. The solution combines the power of FrontRow Conductor audio-over-IP campus communication and CleverLive digital signage cloud service to provide comprehensive coverage across a school’s AV infrastructure, delivering significant improvements in campus-wide communication.

This new integration makes communicating across school campuses significantly easier, enhancing communication during announcements, events, or alerts such as lockdowns, fire, or weather emergencies, when timing and accuracy is crucial. The campus communication system natively integrates via the CleverLive app, included on all displays offered by Mimio and Clevertouch. The system is easy to use and an ideal alternative to designing and connecting various products within a school or business and allows for one point of access and management of controlled and tiered communication.

“With this integration, we are strengthening our campus communication strategy and accelerating our mission to make communication effortless for schools and customers across various sectors.”

Highlights include:

• Campus AV Communication is a highly effective way to provide communication across campus for announcements and alert, providing instant, simultaneous audio and video communication
• Using CleverLive (available on Mimio and Clevertouch displays) and FrontRow Conductor, administrators can override both audio and video in the classroom, ensuring all students and staff have their full attention during announcements and alerts
• During an announcement or alert, both audio and video will be pushed to all displays in hallways and classrooms displaying content, which could be customized for location and event type

“ATTENTION! is a powerful example of the benefits of integration across the Boxlight brand solutions,” said Sean Penn, VP of Product at FrontRow. “The ability to use FrontRow Conductor to drive audio-video paging and alerts helps overcome barriers to mission-critical campus communication such as headphones, mobile phones, and other distractions. Once schools see how effective and easy this is, it will become the standard.”

“Not only are many of our customers using Mimio or Clevertouch as their in-class display, but we are seeing a growing trend amongst our customers using Clevertouch Digital Signage solutions in hallways and common areas,” said FrontRow President Jens Holstebro. “With this integration, we are strengthening our campus communication strategy and accelerating our mission to make communication effortless for schools and customers across various sectors.”
