Wired vs Wireless AV Connectivity
Compare wired and wireless approaches for AV signal distribution.
AV signals can be distributed via traditional wiring or wireless technology. This comparison helps you understand when each approach makes sense and how voice control complements both.
Wired AV
Strengths
- Reliable, consistent quality
- No interference concerns
- Higher bandwidth capacity
- Lower latency
Limitations
- Infrastructure installation cost
- Less flexibility for changes
- Cable management challenges
Best For
Permanent installations, high-quality requirements
Wireless AV
Strengths
- Flexible room layouts
- Quick deployment
- BYOD-friendly
- Reduced infrastructure
Limitations
- Potential interference
- Variable quality
- Security considerations
- Battery/power management
Best For
Huddle spaces, flexible environments, temporary setups
Our Verdict
Wired remains the standard for permanent, high-quality installations. Wireless excels for flexibility and BYOD scenarios. Most organizations use both: wired infrastructure with wireless presentation capability.
