Commercial AV brings sound, images and controls together around a human task. FBT designs and implements meeting-room technology, displays, signage and supported commercial interfaces so the finished space is clear to use and straightforward to support.
Request a ConsultationTHE OPERATIONAL CHALLENGE
Separate purchases can leave a room with incompatible signal paths, unclear controls or poor audio from important seats. Commissioning needs to follow the user journey, not just the equipment list.
Connect the room design to presentation and collaboration workflows. Test common devices, document the signal paths and give users a concise operating guide.
Explore the full scopeTHE SERVICE CATALOGUE
20 distinct services within audio-visual & display solutions. Select the tasks your project needs; scope, ownership and acceptance are agreed before delivery.
Review room size, meeting styles and platform requirements before selecting displays and audio equipment. Identify user expectations and support ownership so the finished room is straightforward to operate.
Room requirements and equipment concept.
Install supported conferencing equipment and connect the approved collaboration platform. Test remote participation, camera framing and audio from representative seats before the room is handed over.
Conference-room commissioning record.
Mount approved professional displays at coordinated positions with suitable support and connectivity. Confirm wall construction, viewing distance and service access before installation and document mounting responsibilities.
Display installation checks and asset record.
Configure supported signage players, displays and content scheduling. Keep content ownership and publishing permissions clear so the system can be updated by the nominated team after installation.
Signage configuration and publishing guide.
Install and configure an approved multi-display arrangement with coordinated sources and control. Verify mounting alignment, signal paths and maintenance access against the agreed viewing application.
Video-wall drawings and commissioning results.
Deploy approved projectors and screens with suitable mounting and signal connections. Review throw distance, ambient light and viewing positions before final placement rather than relying only on brightness specifications.
Projection layout and image checks.
Plan loudspeaker and microphone coverage around the intended room use. Account for seating, background sound and supported processing options, coordinating acoustic treatment where specialist input is needed.
Audio concept and equipment schedule.
Install supported tabletop, ceiling or wireless microphones for the agreed application. Test representative speech and placement, documenting any environmental constraints that affect intelligibility.
Microphone layout and functional checks.
Configure approved audio processing for the connected sources, microphones and loudspeakers. Tune routing and levels through practical tests, with final settings recorded for future maintenance.
DSP configuration and signal-flow diagram.
Program supported controls around the room's actual user workflows. Keep source selection and common actions clear, and test recovery from interrupted sessions or equipment restarts.
Control interface and tested operation sequence.
Install and configure approved room control panels with the supported control system. Coordinate mounting, network access and user permissions so the interface remains usable and maintainable.
Panel configuration and user journey tests.
Connect supported booking displays to the approved calendar platform. Confirm resource ownership, licensing and scheduling behaviour, testing actual room reservations before handover.
Booking integration and calendar test record.
Implement supported networked AV endpoints on an agreed network design. Coordinate switch capacity, multicast requirements and management responsibilities with the network team before commissioning streams.
AV network map and source-to-display tests.
Install supported switching, extension or distribution equipment for the agreed sources and displays. Validate resolution, distance and control requirements using the intended devices rather than a generic test source alone.
Signal-path schedule and functional evidence.
Install approved loudspeakers, amplification and zoning for business environments. Coordinate coverage and level requirements with operators, keeping life-safety audio outside scope unless specifically authorized and qualified.
Zone layout and operational checks.
Provide suitable wired or supported wireless presentation connections for meeting spaces. Test common user devices and document adapters or platform limitations that affect the presenting experience.
Connectivity guide and device compatibility checks.
Connect approved point-of-sale displays, peripherals and network interfaces. Coordinate with the POS application provider and test the agreed peripheral functions without claiming payment-processing certification.
Peripheral register and integration checks.
Organize processors, amplifiers and signal equipment with appropriate ventilation and cable management. Label serviceable connections and document rack power dependencies with the responsible parties.
AV rack elevation and patch schedule.
Demonstrate the installed room or display system using common business scenarios. Provide concise operating instructions and escalation routes so users can start a meeting without needing specialist assistance.
User walkthrough and room quick-start guide.
Test agreed signal paths, controls and user scenarios before acceptance. Record settings and ownership so ongoing support can distinguish room operation issues from platform or network dependencies.
Commissioning pack and support responsibility map.
A CLOSER LOOK
Start with the people, seating, content and meeting workflow. These inputs guide audio, display and control requirements more usefully than a generic equipment bundle. Coordinate room constraints and network dependencies before selecting devices and fixing mounting positions.
Room requirements, device schedule and a documented user workflow.

A professional room depends on the complete signal path. Align microphones, speakers, displays, source devices and supported interfaces with the physical layout. Keep cable routes and configuration ownership explicit so installation teams and operators work from the same arrangement.
Signal and connection references with an approved installation layout.
Explore the service catalogueThe intended user should be able to start the agreed meeting or display function without understanding the installation. Define the control sequence and platform interfaces, then test representative scenarios. Keep administrator functions separate from the normal room workflow.
Accepted control scenarios and concise room operating guidance.
