We would love to learn about your project.
Let's Talk.
N-DESK
Audio Visual Desk
Engineered with professors and instructors in mind, the
Nomad N-DESK includes all the features and benefits of the
Nomad LT, but in a convenient desk format. Weekly or daily
lectures can be physically taxing for instructors. The N-DESK
provides a comfortable workspace to use during lectures or
while students are viewing videos or studying independently.
Fully Retractable
The efficient use of space in the proprietary design of the
N-DESK allows a reasonable footprint for the audio visual desk while being fully retractable to save space when certain features are not in use.
Face-Forward Presentations
By nature, audio visual desks promote face-forward presentations. However, the convenient placement of a built-in confidence monitor allows presenters to review presented images without turning around to look at the big screen.
Ergonomic Layout
The N-DESK was designed to place highly interactive devices, such as the control panel, in convenient locations so presenters can use them comfortably.
ADA Compliant
The Nomad N-DESK was specifically designed to be fully compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act. With enough knee-space to accommodate a wheelchair, any presenter can use the Nomad AV System with ease.
Furniture Features
This proprietary audio visual desk was specifically engineered to integrate the select hardware used in Nomad AV Systems and is not sold separately.
Standard Features
Slow-Close Drawer Slides
Prevent drawers from slamming shut and damaging electronic components or the furniture
Dual-Sided Service Access
Removable panels on both sides of the AV desk allow dual-sided access to the technology for troubleshooting and service
Tilting Monitor Mount
The tilting mount allows the on-board confidence monitor to be positioned for proper viewing angle while holding firm enough to withstand touch pressure if the annotation option package is selected
Ample Paper Space
Thoughtful design of the audio visual desk places devices such that there is plenty of convenient workspace
Rack Mounted Components
The N-DESK is designed around 2 racks (11U and 4U) to maximize the use of space, allow convenient service access to components and make future upgrades more feasible
Device Security
All devices are secured to the AV desk to prevent the removal of components that can lead to theft or improper reconnection
Doc Cam Auto On/Off
The document camera is automatically turned on and off when the drawer opens and closes to save energy and prevent heat build-up
Hard-Wired Connection Cables
Providing tethered cables, rather than ports, for connecting personal devices relieves users of remembering their own
Active Cooling System
Dual USB fans and open furniture design ensure that the interior of the N-DESK never exceeds 80 degrees Fahrenheit
Provided Power Outlet
A convenient power outlet allows users to plug personal devices in at the AV desk
Options & Accessories
Custom Color
With hundreds of wood grains, colors and patterns available, the N-DESK is sure to match the interior design of your space
Customized Plaque
A custom engraved wood or plastic plaque can be fixed to the AV desk to prominently display your organization’s logo
Top-Side USB Port (included with PC option)
A USB port on top of the N-DESK allows users a convenient connection point for thumb drives so they will be easily remembered
Keyboard/Mouse Tray (included with PC option)
A retractable keyboard and mouse tray allows convenient access to a keyboard and mouse and hides them when not in use

Standard Configuration
The standard configuration of the Nomad N-DESK includes all of the interactive, supporting and peripheral technology commonly found in a fully functional AV presentation solution. Options can be added, removed or substituted to customize this audio visual desk to meet your specific needs.
Interactive Technology
Confidence Monitor
Duplicates any image that is being shown on the big screen. Presenters can remain confident in what is being seen by the audience while maintaining a natural, face-forward presentation.
Document Camera
The 21st century version of the overhead projector…without the transparencies. The doc cam gives presenters the ability to display any type of non-digitized content in real-time, such as books, newspaper articles, 3D models, etc.
Mounted Touch Screen Controller
The touch screen controller provides presenters with a user interface that allows them to easily control the N-DESK and its components.
Blu-Ray Player
The Blu-ray player gives presenters the ability to play previously recorded content that is stored on CDs, DVDs, or Blu-ray discs.
Personal Device Connections (BYOD)
Hard-wired HDMI and VGA cables give presenters the ability to present multimedia content from their personal devices such as notebook computers, tablets and smart phones.
Apple TV
The Apple TV gives presenters the ability to wirelessly present multimedia content from Apple devices such as iPads, MacBooks, iPhones, etc.
Bose Sound System w/ Subwoofer
The built-in Bose sound system provides deep, clear sound and, in many cases, eliminates the need for expensive audio infrastructure.
Supporting Technology
Audio Distribution
Splits the audio signal to be sent to the internal stereo amplifier and to the output panel for integration with existing audio infrastructure.
HDMI Distribution
Splits and amplifies the HDMI video signal to be sent to the confidence monitor and display device(s) while managing HDCP and EDID communication.
Switcher/Scaler
The switcher/scaler consolidates audio and video signals in order to provide fade-thru-black switching and video scaling of all input sources to avoid resolution issues.
Control Processor
The control processor is the brain of the control system that interprets and distributes the commands entered at the touch screen controller.
Power Distribution
Surge-protecting power strips are used to distribute power to the 15+ devices in the audio visual desk from a single external power cord.
IP Distribution
A network hub/switch is used to distribute a single Cat 6 signal into multiple network connections for several devices throughout the AV desk while managing dedicated IP addresses for each.
Cables
75+ cables of varying length and type (HDMI, network, audio, power, etc.) are used to connect and consolidate all of the devices into one fully integrated AV desk.
Cat 6 Transmitter/ Receiver Pair
A room’s cabling infrastructure is dramatically reduced as the HDMI video and RS232 control signals from the audio visual desk are carried over a single Cat 6 cable to a projector or monitor.
Powered Stereo Amplifier
The powered stereo amplifier amplifies the low-power audio received from input sources to drive high-quality sound through the speakers and the subwoofer.
Peripheral Technology
3000 Lumen Projector or Professional-Grade LED Monitor
The N-DESK comes standard with a 3000 lumen projector as the big screen that allows the audience to view presented images.
A professional-grade, large-format monitor can be substituted.
Upgrade price depends on the monitor size selected.
Mounting Hardware for Selected Display Device
The hardware to mount the selected display device to the ceiling or wall is included with the Nomad N-DESK.
Control System Functionality
Audio-Follows-Video Source Switching
Audio and video signals are simultaneously switched with the press of a single button.
Volume Controls
Volume controls are present on each menu to ensure that volume up, volume down and mute controls are always quickly accessible.
Blank Image
The image on the big screen can be quickly blanked and restored as the confidence monitor stays active in cases where the visual aid needs to be prepared before it is presented.
Output Display Power Control
The projector or large format monitor can be turn on and off using the touch screen controller at the AV desk.
Device Sub-Menus
Sub-menus that allow the presenter to control the fictions of an input device are displayed as soon as that device is selected as the active source. (Available for the Document Camera, Blu-ray and Apple TV )
