January 29th, 2008 - ILS introduces additional, larger SpeakersCorner podium at the ISE. Expands support for SMART Sympodium users.

In a move to satisfy popular request by the Audio Visual market, ILS announces the ILS24, a larger version of the ILS16 SpeakersCorner. This Swiss designed, German made cabinet now features a full 19” x 19” rack inside the lockable cabinet and has a VESA mount for a much wider range of monitors with tilt and height adjustment. Its marked T-shape allows for easy placement of laptops or beamers. AV systems integrators will find ample space inside to install amplifiers, streaming and multimedia equipment inside next to a PC.

Just like the ILS16 SpeakersCorner, the ILS24 comes professionally pre-wired for any PC, display and optional equipment in use such as a document camera. Also you can switch to the connectors for notebooks on the wing tablets. By implementing 2 Extron 4-way and 2-way switchers next to a KVM switch, you can now switch to different sources while the audience views the display output without interruption from the extended graphics port of the PC. The wing tablets have two height positions; the lower level was added to accommodate a visualizer more comfortably.

“ILS is the only European company in the SMART Technologies furniture catalogue”, says Henk de Groot, “The new VESA mounting capability on the ILS24 – also available on the ILS16 - allow universities, schools and corporations using SMART Sympodium equipment to install the DT770 dual touch display on our platform. New also is the ILS24D, with the capability to put two DT770’s or other displays side by side on a single tilt able plate serving 2 projectors”

During ISE, ILS also announced the capability to insert a SMART Sympodium ID370 into its popular ILS17 lectern and the availability of pedestals with electrical height adjustment and miniPC mounted between DT770 and the pedestal as a low cost alternative platform.
