Details

Founded in 1927, TSU is one of the largest and most comprehensive HBCUs in the United States with nearly 8,000 students and 100-plus academic programs. TEKVOX had previously provided TSU with A/V technology for its Library Learning Center and began A/V tech upgrades for classrooms in 2017. Now they’ve expanded with HyFlex capabilities to facilitate remote learning and more efficiently deploy A/V for on-site instruction.

TSU selected TEKVOX’s Collegiate HyFlex Classroom solution, which outfits each classroom with an award-winning TekFlex-85T Pro presentation matrix switcher and pair of High Definition PTZ cameras, including one with AI tracking for instructors.

Product Description

Packing an incredible array of advanced features into a 1RU form factor, the 85T Pro is designed to simplify video conferencing in large classrooms, lecture halls, corporate boardrooms, training facilities and other venues.

The 85T Pro supports multiple independent displays and output resolutions up to 4Kx2K @60Hz. A multiview camera switcher with a built-in USB encoder streamlines the integration of multiple HDMI camera feeds, while a robust set of inputs—seven HDMI and one USB-C with 60W charging—guarantees support for a wide variety of sources.

An integrated USB 3.0 KVM enables video conferencing from up to four independent sources, including PCs, HDMI/USB-C laptops, wireless conferencing units and more. The 85T Pro also includes an internal DSP with four microphone inputs—each with selectable phantom power and acoustic echo cancellation (AEC)—providing speech reinforcement and a mixed microphone signal for video conferencing.
