Global Caché and Dukane Corporation Establish New Partnership
Dukane to Incorporate GC-100 Network Adapter in Newly Launched ConVA Media Control System

Las Vegas, NV and Jacksonville, OR - June 6, 2005 - (infoComm05 Booth #3517 and #931) Global Caché, a leader in IP-enabling products, and Dukane Corporation, a leading manufacturer of advanced technology products announced today they have formed a partnership that leverages the companies’ complimentary market and technology strengths. Dukane AudioVisual, a Dukane division, will integrate Global Caché’s GC-100 Network Adapter into it’s newly announced ConVA Media Control System, to seamlessly connect previously un-networked devices such as projectors, DVD/VCRs, and document cameras. The integrated solution is currently available to Dukane dealers and major customers.
 
Based on open systems, ConVA controls diverse multimedia equipment in a single classroom or an entire campus, over a standard IP network. Various activities, including maintenance can be scheduled with time stamped logs available for operational analysis. The ConVA system can lower total cost of ownership (TCO) for large installations of AV equipment and serve as a platform for control of all future equipment. The Global Caché hardware is used to connect disparate pieces of AV equipment to the network.

Global Caché President, Walt Keller said, "The task of controlling and maintaining the vast array of multimedia gear found in campus and corporate installations is a big job and requires a solution supplier that has a deep knowledge of the pro-AV market. We are proud to be partnering with Dukane, who is as experienced as it gets in this environment, with an unsurpassed understanding of the market, as well as the channel needs that serve it.”

Michael Ritschdorff, Dukane President added, “The beauty of open systems is that you can partner with companies like Global Caché to provide highly integrated solutions, while allowing your respective companies’ to do what they do best. Global Caché specializes in network-enabling previously unconnected devices; we specialize in audio video equipment and the control and maintenance of that equipment. Our partnership with Global Caché will greatly benefit our channel and their customers, by providing flexible, leading edge solutions at an affordable price.”
