Legrand CEDIA 2022 Products

Home Theater and Media Rooms

At the show, Legrand | AV will reveal a unique home theater offering: Da-Lite’s new cable-drop feature, SightLine. Available with Da-Lite’s Tensioned Advantage electric screen, SightLine gives the impression of a floating screen. A suspension system is packed into the electric screen’s single-roller design, featuring three or four cables that are virtually undetectable when lowered and that eliminate the unsightly black border above the projection screen. What’s more, for a fast, hassle-free experience, installers no longer have to measure and specify drop distance when ordering. The cables allow the screen to be adjusted to any drop distance, up to 70 inches between the ceiling and the top of the screen.

In addition, Da-Lite will showcase its alternative to challenging wired screen installations with the Tensioned Designer Contour with Agility Battery Motor. It provides all the benefits of an electric screen but the flexibility of wire-free installation. Available in diagonals up to 110 inches in 16:9 HDTV format and 113 inches in 16:10 wide format and up to 16K-ready screen surfaces, it is ideal for no-fuss installations or where flexibility is required to retrofit historic homes or environments where wiring electricity is prohibitive. The lithium-ion battery lasts over 200 cycles on a single charge via micro-USB port and can be operated with a wireless handheld remote.

Designed to provide flexible viewing options for large flat screens, the Sanus VLT7 Advanced Tilt 4D Premium TV wall mount represents the next level of advanced tilt technology. With 6.8 inches of extension, it allows even the largest TVs to be tilted in four different directions without limitations — not only up and down but also left and right. The extension offers a larger tilt range, eliminating the problem of large TVs installed on traditional tilting mounts from hitting the wall.

Addressing today’s wireless audio trends, Sanus will showcase its WSS52 Sonos Five and Sonos PLAY:5 stand and WSSATM1 Extendable Soundbar TV mount designed for the Sonos Arc Soundbar. The Sanus WSS52 securely holds the Sonos Five or Sonos PLAY:5 in either vertical or horizontal orientation in an anodized aluminum design that complements the modern look of the speaker while placing it at an ideal listening height. It’s available in black or white to match the Sonos Five, fashionably delivering optimum performance for ambient listening, stereo pairing, or surround sound. Installers can complete the seamless look, free of cables, with the Press Fit cable management technology, which secures and conceals cords down the back of the stand. Designed in partnership with Sonos, the Sanus WSSATM1 Soundbar Bracket for Sonos Arc is compatible with and attaches directly to most TV mounts from other brands, including full-motion mounts to move the TV and speaker together, for a seamless look that only takes 15 minutes to set up.

Infrastructure: Storage, Cable Management, Networking, and Power

Installers will appreciate being able to level up the organization of their cables and devices with new options for On-Q enclosures, including the new Forward Keyhole Post Clips and Small Device Mounting Clamps, designed using Forward Technology for a quick and easy install. On-Q will also showcase its 9-inch and 17-inch Dual-Purpose In-Wall Enclosures, designed to provide in-wall storage of AV devices behind mounted TVs or for structured wiring organization and distribution in new construction and retrofit installations. Made in the USA, they are engineered out of Wi-Fi transparent material for uninterrupted control of entertainment devices stored inside, such as a Samsung One Connect Box, Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, small network switches, and more. They also include knockouts for cable management and power and an enclosure cover, trim ring, and drywall clips.

Middle Atlantic Products powers up any AV experience starting at the foundation with its power and rack solutions. Featuring six surge-protected outlets, with three connected to a battery backup system, the Structured Wiring UPS UPS-SC600 is the perfect compact solution for protecting electronics during a power loss or surge event. Leveraging Middle Atlantic’s two decades of AV expertise, NEXSYS combines power distribution and power backup into one comprehensive power platform for AV systems. In addition, Middle Atlantic’s racks will be on display in the McIntosh Labs sponsored sound room.

In addition to reliable power solutions, visitors to the Legrand | AV booth will see Luxul’s industry-trusted networking solutions in action. Luxul’s Epic Mesh brings all the simplicity of a traditional mesh system and combines it with features built for the custom installer. Its built-in ProWatch+ allows for remote monitoring and management of all connected network devices, saving installers time and money by reducing truck rolls. Its 4×4 backhaul means better communication between nodes, providing less network congestion and faster Wi-Fi speeds. Plus, it’s backed with an industry-leading three-year warranty and free lifetime support.

Luxul’s line of SW-510/610 Series PoE+ managed switches provides flexibility to meet today’s requirements and solve tomorrow’s challenges. Each switch features a large PoE+ budget and the ability to be aggregated together, allowing installers to mix and match models based on project need. Plus, each model is integrated with ProWatch and include PoE Self-Healing.

 Work From Home

Installers can easily defend against work-from-home cable and charger clutter with Chief’s Koncīs Charging Hub. It brings elegant and convenient charging options to the company’s Koncīs Monitor Arms. The hub features USB-A and USB-C charging ports for desktop charging of personal devices such as mobile phones and tablets.
