PlexusAV is at ISE 2026 making the case that AV over IP should be built on open standards, not proprietary lock-in. In our quick conversation with Jim Reinhart, we dig into why IPMX matters for higher ed, and how real interoperability changes the long-term support and refresh story. We also talk about practical migration paths, including gateways that let campuses connect existing HDBaseT rooms into an IPMX network without ripping everything out. If you are on-site in Barcelona, you can find PlexusAV in Hall 5, Booth 5J700.
