Stanmore Contractors, Erith: Q-SYS Training Room AV

Q: Can a training room and a breakout area share one AV system?

Yes. Here one Q-SYS Core 8 Flex runs both spaces, and Q-SYS NV network video endpoints send any source to any screen. A combined room mode on the touch panel lets the kitchen breakout join the training room for events, or run on its own day to day. More on touch panel control.

Q: How does an audio-tracking camera help hybrid training?

The AVer CAM570 is a 4K dual-lens camera that uses audio tracking to frame whoever is talking, so remote attendees can follow the presenter without anyone steering the camera. Here it runs over a 15m active optical USB 3.0 extension. See video conferencing.

Q: Can staff present from their own laptops?

Yes, wirelessly or by cable. A BenQ InstaShow VS25 gives driver-free wireless sharing, and a Lightware UCX-4x2-HC60 switcher takes HDMI and USB-C laptops. See wireless presentation.

A training suite for Stanmore Contractors' head office

Stanmore Contractors is a construction company headquartered in Erith, Kent. In May 2026 it was renovating the training room at its head office, working to a room layout drawn up by its design consultant. Strive AV surveyed the space and designed a system covering the training room and the kitchen breakout next to it. The two spaces can now run together for events or separately, all from 2 wall-mounted touch panels. The Q-SYS touch panel can also control the mood lighting in the space.

The challenge: one long room, one breakout, one renovation

The training room is a long space set out with round tables, so a presenter has to be seen and heard from every table, and remote attendees need to see and hear the presenter too. The kitchen breakout next door, with its banquette seating and island, needed screens and sound of its own that could also join the training room for events. All of it had to be fitted during an interior renovation, with displays set into recesses in the newly finished walls, and the controls had to be simple enough for any member of staff to run a session.

Key Requirements

•A presenter seen and heard clearly from every table in a long training room
•A camera and microphone so remote attendees can join training sessions
•A kitchen breakout that can run on its own or join the training room for events
•Displays fitted into wall recesses during an interior renovation
•Simple touch panel control for sources, audio, room mode and lighting scenes

A single Q-SYS system for both spaces

Strive AV built the system on a QSC Q-SYS Core 8 Flex processor. The main display in the training room is an 86-inch MAXHUB V8650 interactive display with a MAXHUB MT71E Windows 11 PC module, and an LG 65-inch commercial screen works as a repeater display. Two LG 55-inch commercial screens serve the kitchen breakout. Video reaches the screens over the network through one Q-SYS NV-32-H and three NV-21-HU endpoints, with a Lightware UCX-4x2-HC60 switcher taking HDMI and USB-C laptops. Presenters can also share wirelessly with a BenQ InstaShow VS25, and an AVer CAM570 4K dual-lens audio-tracking camera, run over a 15m active optical USB 3.0 extension, frames whoever is talking for remote attendees. Sound comes from eight QSC AD-C4T ceiling loudspeakers driven by two QSC SPA-Q 2004F amplifiers, with an Audio-Technica radio lapel microphone for the presenter and a Dante Bluetooth wallplate for background music from a phone. A Netgear M4250 AV line switch carries the Q-SYS audio, control and video traffic. Two QSC TSC-70-G3 touch panels handle sources, microphones, volume, the camera, Bluetooth and a combined room mode, and also call up lighting scenes for the training room and kitchen, from presentation and meeting presets to colour effects for the cove lighting.

Training room AV: common questions

What AV does a corporate training room need?

Plan for a large main display, a repeater display, a presenter microphone, ceiling speakers, a camera for remote attendees and one control panel. At Stanmore Contractors' Erith head office that meant an 86-inch MAXHUB interactive display, an LG 65-inch repeater, an Audio-Technica radio lapel mic, eight QSC ceiling speakers, an AVer CAM570 tracking camera and two Q-SYS touch panels. See our audio systems page for how we plan speaker coverage.

Can a training room and a breakout area share one AV system?

Yes. Here one Q-SYS Core 8 Flex runs both spaces, and Q-SYS NV network video endpoints send any source to any screen. A combined room mode on the touch panel lets the kitchen breakout join the training room for events, or run on its own day to day. More on touch panel control.
