Choosing between Standardized and Alternate Configurations


Overview

Just Add Power built its reputation for outstanding performance on its design using VLANs, a closed network to distribute audio and video with zero detectable latency. For most installs, a Standardized Configuration using VLAN Switching is the best option for a Just Add Power AV system.

For some larger installs where equipment is already in place or must be consistent across the company's network, an Alternate Configuration using Multicast Switching is necessary to meet these requirements.

Use the guide below to help you choose the type of system that's right for your next project.
