The University of Udine in Italy has opened its new Scientific and Technological Library, a project that merges architectural innovation with sustainability.
Recognized with the 2022 CasaClima award for its energy-efficient design, the library stands as a testament to the university's commitment to environmental responsibility. To support this facility, Extron's AV switching, streaming, AV over IP, and control technologies were chosen to create a flexible and reliable AV infrastructure.

“For nearly 20 years, we have been striving to standardise our IT and AV technologies as effectively as possible,” says Alessandro Magris, operations services management office manager at Udine. “Our primary challenge is to ensure the best possible user experience in both historical buildings and new projects that we develop from the ground up.”
The new library features a variety of educational spaces, including classrooms, study rooms, and the Aula Magna multipurpose room. Extron's IN1808 IPCP SA, SMP 351, MediaPort 200, and NAV Pro AV over IP System provide the backbone for these spaces.
The NAV System enables the integration of multiple rooms into a unified event space, facilitating a diverse range of university events and conferences.
