In this LEED-certified office tower in downtown Manhattan, over 50 videoconference suites are equipped with customized Innovox FL-H2 and FL-V2 speakers. CMS Creative Consultants made use of Innovox's "cut-to-length" flexibility to design split-speaker bars spanning two NEC displays, with a Polycom camera placed betwwen the two speaker bars. By locating the speakers at the display, instead of in the ceiling, CMS succeeded in integrating the audio and video images of the videoconference experience for Bank of America.
