ABOUT THE INSTALL
Completed in July 2014, the EXPO Trade Fair Center in Krakow, Poland was designed to be the most advanced such venue in region, and considerably larger and more versatile than its predecessor located in the old trade halls of Krakow. The new space afforded designers greater possibilities in terms of what the venue could be used for, offering the flexibility required by modern trade fair venues to accommodate events of any kind and any size.

THE CHALLENGE
With technology integral to any modern exhibition venue, AV and communication was one of the most important areas of attention for the designer to offer the kind of service expected by exhibitors and attendees, with signal management, audio systems and video distribution all required to provide the kind of faultless reliability and high quality without compromising features that meets the demands of any event.

THE SOLUTION
A hybrid of WyreStorm HDBaseT and AV over IP distribution comprising of a series of Matrices, Extenders, Switcher/scalers and NetworkHD to deliver signals throughout the venue. Digital signage information greets visitors at the open plan main entrance, with the hallway leading to a 4000m2 and a 5000m2 hall with a number of offices, facilities and a first floor restaurant serving the venue above the main exhibition area. Connected to the entrance and exhibition halls are also 4 conference rooms featuring 15 projection systems that can be partitioned into individual sections to accommodate smaller conferences, meetings or training sessions.
