Every day, millions of people around the world are having their experiences enhanced by Extron products.

Our advanced technologies create better looking images, higher quality sound, and systems that are easier to control and work more reliably.Our powerful asset management tools are helping technology professionals efficiently manage large numbers of audiovisual systems deployed throughout their enterprises and institutions.

Extron products are purpose-built to work together, creating core technologies for the enterprise that work seamlessly with
your IT infrastructure. The breadth of the Extron product line provides system designers with the flexibility to select the optimal
solution for each application. All of this is backed by our exceptional support, industry recognized technology training, and the
Extron Satisfaction Guarantee.

Core Technology for the Enterprise

Extron provides a full range of technologies that let you deploy fully integrated AV solutions across the enterprise. They are
carefully engineered to provide best-in-class performance, high energy efficiency, and exceptional reliability. A high level of
vertical integration means Extron is responsible for design, manufacturing, testing, and support. This ensures that each product
is designed to integrate seamlessly with other products to create comprehensive AV system solutions that will last for years.
A thoughtful, iterative product design process ensures that all products include features and capabilities that streamline the
installation process and provide intuitive operation for all users.

Control, Automation, and Management

From the smallest huddle room to the most demanding campus, government, or corporate environment, Extron AV control
and automation solutions simplify operation, unify experiences, and satisfy customer needs for reliable, versatile AV control in
every space. Behind the scenes, Extron products work quietly in racks, tucked under conference tables, or mounted behind
displays – switching and distributing signals, while reliably enhancing your AV experiences, year after year. Within a room,
thoughtful interface design practices ensure users can walk into any space and immediately get down to business by starting
their meeting or presentation without AV getting in their way.

Extron automation systems, occupancy sensors, and Extron Room Scheduling prepare rooms by turning on lights, lowering
shades, and powering up presentation systems. When your meeting is done, you can walk out of the room and know that the
same automation work in reverse and even alert the maintenance crew that the room needs cleaning.
Whether you are responsible for five rooms or 500, our GlobalViewer Enterprise provides all the tools needed for help desk
troubleshooting, remote device management, and even support buying and allocation decisions based on room and device
usage reports – all from the convenience of a mobile device or any web browser.

Professional AV Services

Extron is committed to ensuring that every AV system enabled by our technologies functions properly and fully meets design
specifications and customer expectations. Our expert team of system design engineers, all of whom have decades of experience,
are only a phone call or an email away. We’re not satisfied until everyone with a vested interest in the success of the system is
satisfied. To that end, we provide the most comprehensive system design assistance, post-installation commissioning services,
and network technologies support in the industry.

System Design Services

Design assistance is a valuable, ongoing service that helps ensure your AV systems are optimized to your specific needs. It can
start during the initial phase of a project, where a system specialist works with you to choose the specific Extron products for
your system, but it doesn’t stop there. Your design specialist works closely with you, long term, whenever you need AV system
design help. Having a professional system designer as part of your AV resource team can streamline projects and provide peace
of mind for today and tomorrow.

System Commissioning

Our System Commissioning service provides comprehensive, post-installation analysis, testing, and verification to ensure your AV system is working exactly as it should be. Our system design engineers take a deep dive into system settings, optimizing dozens of audio, video, and control settings. They also run a point-to point physical analysis of your AV with every button pressed,every connection checked, and every signal path verified.

Network Support Group

Our Network Technologies Support Group brings together an unparalleled team of senior AV engineers that specialize in
Enterprise IT Network Management. With certifications such as CCIE and CCNP from Cisco and other infrastructure vendors,

chambers. This significant investment in time, materials, and personnel enables us to globally offer products with a reputation
for high quality and uncompromising customer satisfaction.

Our state-of-the-art compliance labs enable Extron engineers and technicians to perform product testing against a full range of
international compliance codes and government standards. Holding multiple testing accreditation for international standards,
Extron is the only Pro AV manufacturer with the facilities and authorization to do this critical testing in-house. Products are
tested for heat generation, fire resistance, EMI/RFI susceptibility and emissions, and efficient use of energy.

In addition to compliance testing, each Extron product goes through an exhaustive testing process during the engineering
and manufacturing phases. Testing is conducted for performance verification, quality assurance, compatibility, reliability,
functionality, shipping / packaging integrity, plus many additional tests that occur during the manufacturing process.
