Supporting AV Infrastructure in Education

From lecture theatres to seminar rooms, educational institutions rely on AV equipment every single day. But technology is only as reliable as the infrastructure that supports it. Devices need to be housed securely, kept running throughout the year, and easy for staff to access when it matters most. Getting this foundation right is what allows AV investment in education to work as hard as the people using it, day in and day out.

Smarter spaces start with the right foundation

A Desk for Every Space

Not every teaching space has the same needs. A small lecture theatre and a large auditorium call for very different furniture, which is why UNICOL's range of AV furniture scales from compact control desks through to full-sized lecturer's desks, keeping devices secure and accessible whatever the size of the room:
Presentor Control Desk – the smallest in the range, this compact control desk suits small lecture theatres, with a folding desktop when not in use, a lockable cabinet for the PC with access to ports and power, and a customisable top panel.

Canterbury Lectern – a freestanding lectern with concealed castors and a media cabinet featuring a 19" 16U rack mount for secure storage of media electronics. It has a wooden top, with a high-quality monitor arm and control panel housing on top as standard.

Mentor Lecturer's Desk – built around a 1300mm wooden desktop, this hinged desk provides easy access to regularly used AV equipment, with a lockable cabinet, a monitor arm and control panel housing as standard, plus visualiser and branding options.

Principal Lecturer's Desk – the largest in the range, with a motorised desktop that allows effortless transition between seated and standing positions. Available in three sizes, with the two larger sizes DDA compliant, it features two lockable storage cabinets, a monitor arm and control panel housing as standard, a wooden desk top, and visualiser and branding options.

Stands & Trolleys for Flexible Deployment

Fixed furniture isn't always the answer. Many educational settings need AV solutions that can move between rooms, be branded and coloured to match institutional guidelines, and offer plug-and-go simplicity for staff. UNICOL's stands and trolleys are designed with exactly this kind of flexibility in mind:
Nest-Star – a teaching aid assistant with lockable, large internal storage, manoeuvrability handles, and highly adaptable design.

Rhobus Plus – featuring four removable equipment trays in lockable storage, zonal air circulation to keep kit running efficiently, and cable management. Customisation options include a choice of cabinet door, RAL colour trolley finishes and branding, and it's VC compatible with manoeuvrability handles for easy movement.

Rhobus Lite – built-in IEC socket for rapid set-up, a removable equipment tray with shelves, and lockable storage in the mast. Manoeuvrability handles, cable management and a choice of RAL colour finishes complete the package.

Secure, Adjustable Projector Mounts

Furniture and trolleys are only part of the picture. UNICOL's projector mounts offer height adjustment for optimal positioning, a range of fixing points to cater to variations in ceiling finishes, and security cages to guard against unauthorised access, giving institutions confidence that their projection equipment stays exactly where it should, however the room is configured.

Mount for the Future

Whether it's a desk built to last a lecturer's entire career, a trolley that can travel between classrooms, or a projector mount secured against tampering, the principle is the same: smarter spaces start with the right foundation. By choosing AV furniture and mounting solutions designed for the realities of education, institutions can keep their technology secure, accessible and running reliably, year after year.
