During the project the main rate became on the solutions considerably simplifying administration of components of a system, providing centralized operation with IT services according to uniform security policy and allowing to reduce the aggregate value of service of IT infrastructure.

As Basic Element for functioning of computing and telecommunication systems of office the intellectual structured cabling system based on the solution Panduit Panveiw which contains 2000 ports was selected and covers 6 floors of the building. All key components of subsystems of an infrastructure complex are controlled by the system of pro-active intellectual monitoring. It provides control over IT infrastructure in real time, minimizes operating costs and provides protection against unauthorized or unplanned changes.

The complex of the multimedia systems with the distributed audio-and video content and centralized operation includes the equipment for equipment of 12 meeting rooms, offices of directors of departments and chief specialists.

A fixed asset of display of the hall is the videowall with a size of screen of 4.910 x 1.850 meters, created from projectors of tubeless MicroTiles LED technology of Chrisite Digital company. The congress a system is constructed based on the equipment Revolabs intended for ensuring work in the mode of a video conferencing and sufficient gain of the speech when scoring the hall. Image output from sources and also setup and control of subsystems in the hall is exercised by means of the controller and the touchpad Crestron with the graphical interface.

The system of a video conferencing which can use practically from any office space is constructed on the equipment of Cisco company and cameras of Sony which are mounted in the hall for demonstration of participants of meetings, both on a display system, and for broadcasting in VKS. Specialists of Asteros organize the system of automatic guidance of cameras on the active microphone of the participant.
