The system needs to support soft VTC (e.g., Microsoft Teams, Zoom) via BYOD devices and record the instructor only. The classroom has a drop-tile ceiling with 2 feet of clearance, is currently a single undivided space but will be split with movable dividers in a separate effort, and accommodates 48 students across 24 movable desks. Display dimensions are approximately 90 inches, and the ceiling height is about 20 feet. All HDMI, VGA, and DVI connections should be co-located, with adapters being sufficient for older connections. A display is required on the fourth wall, even with closet access, potentially using a drop-down projector screen.

Key points include the necessity of installing two displays on each of the four walls of a classroom, totaling eight displays. Wireless microphones are preferred but not essential; existing projectors and speakers can be utilized. True surround sound is not a requirement as long as audio clarity and zoning capabilities are met. Additional furniture is not needed, and the classroom is a single undivided space with an approximate ceiling height of 20 feet. Twenty-four desks are accommodated for up to 48 students. The requirement to install displays was confirmed for a wall with existing obstructions, suggesting possible use of a drop-down screen. The document serves as a response to inquiries regarding the specifications of the audio-visual needs for a classroom setting, ensuring compliance with the overall objectives of the solicitation while focusing on efficient use of existing resources.
