It is an unfortunate fact that theft of AV
equipment is a constant concern, especially for schools that have
installed integrated classroom AV systems. Equipment that must be in
plain view to operate—such as projectors, flatpanel displays, and
loudspeakers—are often targeted as high-theft items. "As we are
putting in more smart rooms, security issues have become even more
important. As the number of installations increases, unfortunately, so
does the potential and opportunity for loss." says Michael Field, senior
technical support specialist at Temple University in Philadelphia.
"Sometimes small items are taken by accident and the person will bring
the equipment back once they realize they took it by mistake."

but as an extension of the local ABC affiliate's remote fleet, optimum
equipment performance was essential. The college turned to Gepco to
provide interconnect solutions for its truck because of the company's
superior customer support and the dependable operation of its cables.
