CHALLENGE

The operating problem

The Glasgow site is a multi-floor commercial building within the client’s national programme, and the brief went further than at the other locations.

The space had to communicate, not simply function. That meant large-format display in the principal rooms, information carried to every floor, and live broadcast distributed around the building, all on infrastructure that could take it.

  • LED video wall technology in the principal spaces
  • Distributed digital signage across more than forty screens
  • Structured cabling capable of supporting the whole distribution load
  • Professional aerial and signal distribution for live television

APPROACH

How Altus delivered

We delivered the building as one distribution system rather than a set of independent screens.

  • A large-format LED wall with coordinated panels and no visible bezels, supporting presentations, video conferencing and live feeds
  • A building-wide signage network across reception, corridors, shared spaces, meeting zones and breakout areas, used for internal communications, branding, live data and media distribution
  • AV over IP distribution on a low-latency, high-bandwidth backbone, professionally terminated and labelled so it stays maintainable
  • Aerial and signal distribution carrying live broadcast and television to multiple screens and zones at consistent quality

The cabling was specified for what the building will need later, not only for the screen count on day one.

OUTCOME

What changed

The building now performs at scale.

  • More than forty screens under coordinated control across every floor
  • Live broadcast and television distributed to any zone at consistent quality
  • A boardroom capable of presentation, video conference and live feed on one display surface
  • A labelled, documented cabling infrastructure that supports expansion without rework

The aerial and broadcast distribution sets Glasgow apart from the other sites in the programme. It is the clearest example of a building that carries live content as part of its normal operation.
