Every source.
Every destination.
Bridging the gap between conventional AV and IP technologies. Network design, validation and troubleshooting for live events and broadcast.
From first sketch
to show day.
For end users, integrators, distributors and manufacturers, in AV rental as well as broadcast.
DESIGN
Network design and IP connectivity that fits the way AV traffic really behaves.
VALIDATE
Validation and proof-of-concept testing before anything reaches the venue.
IMPLEMENT
Implementation, virtualisation and vendor coordination, documented properly.
TROUBLESHOOT
Monitoring and troubleshooting when packets stop arriving on time.
Why AV needs someone who speaks IP.
Audio, video and light used to have their own cables. Now they share one network, and every packet is expected on time. This is what we do about that.
A network you can trust.
You know signal flow. We help you get at home in IP networking, so multicast, VLANs and PTP stop being the scary part of the rig.
A partner who gets showtime.
You know networks. We explain what broadcast and AV really need from them, and why a dropped frame is not just another ticket.
Case study
A permanent event venue, rebuilt around one converged AV network.
One network for video, audio, light, comms and control.
Racks stripped and rebuilt, a 10G fibre backbone, NDI discovery, Dante, multiviewers, wayfinding, Wi-Fi and VPN. Measured first, documented throughout.
READ THE CASE →Stutter, drops, sources that vanish?
We find out where the network lets your NDI streams down, and fix it. Deep knowledge matters, but so do the networking basics.

AV meets IP was founded by Tom van den Heuvel. It started with Dante and Art-Net, and grew with NDI and ST 2110. Years of hands-on work taught him exactly what these technologies ask of a network.
