London Business School Uses Magewell USB Capture in WolfVision AV System

London Business School (LBS) was established in 1964 and is consistently ranked as one of the world's leading business schools. Focused on postgraduate business education, the school offers MBA, Masters and PhD degrees, as well as a selection of short courses designed for executives.

Featuring broad signal compatibility and automatic input format detection for exceptional ease of use, the Magewell devices enable the vSolution MATRIX system to bring in HDMI sources through the Cynap Core units' standard USB 3.0 port. Each of LBS' 32 Cynap Core systems is now equipped with its own USB Capture HDMI device.

Hidden inside the student workstations atop the Cynap Core units with only the connected HDMI cable visible to users, the Magewell devices have performed flawlessly and transparently in serving the hundreds of participants that utilize the active learning space each week.

"Magewell's USB Capture HDMI devices have worked seamlessly with WolfVision's Cynap Core units to enable students to use HDMI sources as an alternative to wireless sharing for interacting with our active learning collaboration platform," said Wayne Buttigieg, Head of Infrastructure and Media Services at LBS. "Our experience with Magewell has been very positive. The devices are simple to use, and we have found them to be extremely reliable.”

Most importantly, the collaborative learning system is bringing the desired educational benefits to the school, it's faculty and its students. "From the students and faculty I've worked with, the feedback has been nothing but positive," said Michele Asbury, Associate Director of Learning Innovation and Design, London Business School. "They love what it can do for their lectures, and they are enjoying the feedback they're getting from students because it is hugely positive – but also for the impact that they're making.”
