Infrastructure isn’t the flashy part of an AV system — but it’s the part that determines whether everything works… or fails when it matters most.

In this episode of Behind the Rack, we break down the most common infrastructure mistakes we see across Commercial AV, Pro Live, Broadcast, and Enterprise deployments.

From poor bandwidth planning and VLAN misconfiguration to IT & AV misalignment, lack of redundancy, and scalability blind spots — we’re talking about the real-world issues that cause instability, downtime, and expensive rework.

If you’re deploying AV-over-IP, wireless microphone systems, IPTV, or live production environments, this episode will help you design smarter from day one.

🎧 Topics include:

• Why infrastructure often gets overlooked
• Network & bandwidth planning pitfalls
• IT and AV alignment challenges
• Segmentation and VLAN mistakes
• Redundancy and single points of failure
• Future-proofing for scalability
• Documentation & commissioning gaps

Strong infrastructure isn’t optional — it’s foundational.
