David Carroll Associates, Inc.

@AIMS Alliance for IP Media Solutions recently asked DCA to present a case study on our work at the new Dropbox headquarters in San Francisco. We took a deep dive, lead by Kevin Gross, our Media Network Architect, into our deployment of an Integrated AV Production Environment featuring leading-edge ST2110 technologies. There are 2 links in the comments below. The first is to the video of the presentation and the second is to the white paper we wrote on this project.... #avtweeps #audiovisual #broaadcast #avoverip

DCA’s Kevin Gross to Host IP Oktoberfest Program Fresh from being awarded a Technical & Engineering Emmy for his work on audio over IP, David Carroll Associates Media Network Architect Kevin Gross will be hosting a Main Stage presentation at the upcoming AIMS IP Oktoberfest event, September 29 October 1. Gross will be offering a Case Study on DCA’s recent IP design and implementation at Dropbox’s new headquarters in San Francisco. The presentation will be live on September... 29 at 11:30am EDT. A pioneer in IP media networking, Kevin Gross was recently recognized with a Technical & Engineering Emmy Award for his work in leading the development of the AES67 standard, sharing the award with the Audio Engineering Society, ALC NetworX, Audinate, QSC, Telos Alliance, and Wheatstone. The award, for Development of synchronized multichannel uncompressed audio transport over IP networks, was awarded in April at the 2020 NAB Show in Las Vegas. AES Executive Director Colleen Harper commented on the Emmy Award, AES67 is an essential protocol that established a standardized language for audio transport, employed every day in the broadcast world and beyond. Its introduction in 2013 fundamentally changed the broadcast audio landscape and paved the way for recent similar developments for video. At DCA, we have always taken tremendous pride in cultivating a team of the finest, most talented renaissance people, and Kevin is certainly one of our rock stars, remarked David Carroll, Founder, and President. We’re thrilled to see the industry recognize him for his work and accomplishments, and even more pleased for the opportunity to have him share his knowledge and his role in one of our recent flagship projects.

The team is growing!

Just coming up for air from an 18-month sprint on the new headquarters for Dropbox. The first day of business in the new space was Monday, with construction on the next phases already in motion. Quick overview in below link, detailed project profile to come. #avintegrator #avintegration

We were asked by Tellart to assist with this project and instead of fiber and related expensive tech, we designed a system using just CAT6A and great encode/decode units from our friends at Visionary Solutions. #avintegrator #avintegration
