Patton Electronics, a leading US manufacturer of Pro-AV, Unified Communications, and industrial connectivity products and services, has signed a distribution agreement with Techni+Contact Canada Ltd, to be a national distributor for the commercial AV markets.
Patton’s connectivity solutions are used in government, healthcare, hospitality, leisure sports & entertainment, transportation, retail, as well as energy, mining, and utilities.
Patton made headline news earlier this year with the introduction of the world’s first Dante AV over IP Gateways (Encoders & Decoders). The FPX6000 series connect the AV product ecosystem—such as cameras or monitors—to the IP network. Dante AV brings ease-of-use, seamless multi-vendor interoperability, and an integrated control experience to AVoIP. The gateways deliver the highest image quality of any 1-Gbps solution by using JPEG2000 – visually lossless 4K60 with no generational losses when re-encoding.
“Techni+Contact is a welcome addition to the Patton channel as a distributor focused on the Pro-AV market” said Burton Patton, Patton’s’ Executive Vice President. “We needed a strong and market-trusted partner with Pro-AV skill sets of Techni+Contact to represent us in Canada.”
“Our corporate and government client-base rely on us to offer best of breed technology solutions. Since Dante AV supports audio-video-data networks on a standard enterprise gigabit Ethernet network, Patton’s AV capabilities allow us to offer our customers reliable, robust, and cost-effective AV integration,” said Julie Legault, President, Techni+Contact Canada.
