NETGEAR AV Showcases AV Over IP Networks for Schools and Universities | eduStreamTV 2026

In this eduStreamTV 2026 session, Jim Bask speaks with John Henkel from NETGEAR AV about how AV over IP networking is transforming educational technology workflows across schools and universities. The discussion explores how NETGEAR AV switches provide the scalable, low-latency infrastructure needed to support modern classroom technology, lecture capture, campus broadcasting, and collaborative learning environments.

John explains how purpose-built AV networking solutions are helping educational institutions simplify complex video workflows while expanding their ability to manage synchronized media systems across multiple spaces. From classrooms and lecture halls to simulation labs and campus-wide production environments, NETGEAR AV solutions are designed to support reliable, high-performance video transport and collaboration without requiring advanced networking expertise.

The session also highlights several real-world education case studies, including Cardiff University’s advanced medical simulation facility and a Virtual Campus initiative that connects secondary schools throughout the Netherlands. These projects demonstrate how AV over IP infrastructure can support immersive learning experiences, remote collaboration, and scalable video distribution across multiple educational locations.

Additional topics include multicast optimization, Dante AV integration, and simplified management tools that help IT teams and AV departments deploy and maintain efficient networked media systems. John discusses how these technologies enable synchronized video workflows, flexible routing, and easier scalability while reducing operational complexity for educational institutions.

Watch this eduStreamTV 2026 session to learn how NETGEAR AV is helping schools and universities build scalable AV over IP networks that power modern learning environments, campus-wide media production, and connected educational experiences.
