Extron announced that it partnered with Radboud University and Dutch AV integrator Fidato B.V. to modernize the university’s instructional spaces with a flexible and scalable AV solution.

Extron said that the university selected the company’s NAV Pro AV over IP system to support the need for adaptable learning environments where instructors and students can collaborate. The installation upgraded three classrooms on campus, providing advanced distribution, switching and control technologies that aim to improve usability and prepare the university for shifting design and use of teaching spaces.

The company said that each classroom now supports several collaborative clusters, instructor control via Extron TouchLink Pro touchpanels and centralized management through the NAVigator System Manager. These additions serve to simplify daily operations and provide reliability. Radbound University has committed to a second phase that will extend the same design to five more learning spaces.

“Extron’s NAV System gave us the flexibility and reliability we needed for Radboud University’s present and future classroom requirements,” said Erik te Vaanhold, AV project manager at Fidato B.V. “Its straightforward setup, intuitive tools, and license-free architecture made installation efficient and future expansion easy to plan for.”
