Velocity: IP-based AV control and management
Velocity 2.0: AV control, asset management, and room scheduling
The Atlona Velocity™ System is an innovative AV control platform that brings together a unique set of capabilities resulting in easy system scalability and a low cost of ownership. Velocity’s IP-based system architecture allows a single, networked processor to serve multiple AV systems simultaneously, leading to overall AV system control efficiency. Velocity also saves valuable time with the ability to configure control systems in minutes, and quickly make system modifications free of extensive programming.
NEW for 2020! In addition to AV control, Velocity serves as an integrated server for room scheduling touch panels, as well as centrally deploying and managing a network of Atlona AV devices.
Key Features
- NEW! IP-based platform for AV control, plus room scheduling and AV asset management
- NEW! Use Velocity touch panels for user control, or use BYOD mobile devices at no extra cost
- NEW! Room scheduling server for Velocity touch panels (Google Calendar™ and Microsoft® Office 365™)
- NEW! Includes Velocity Cloud Lite for off-site configuration, monitoring, and servicing AV control systems and scheduling panels
- NEW! Atlona Management System (AMS) for centrally configuring, deploying, and managing Atlona AV devices
- Low cost of ownership from a single, networked processor serving multiple room systems
- Configure, deploy, and modify control systems in minutes – no programming necessary
New features and products for the Velocity System will be available January 2020. Please contact your Atlona representative for more information.

Learn MoreVelocity System Gateways
At the heart of every Velocity System is the gateway, a server that provides the processing to serve multiple rooms of AV control, plus room scheduling panels. Each gateway also includes the Atlona Management System (AMS) for configuring and servicing Atlona switchers and other AV devices, as well as Velocity Cloud Lite remote management and the unlimited use of BYOD mobile devices for AV control.
Hardware Gateway
The VGW-HW is a hardware gateway, available in 3 different room capacity configurations to suit your AV integration requirements. Velocity is the only platform that lets you serve multiple rooms of AV control from one processor.
| SKU | AV Control | Room Scheduling* | IP Device Capacity** |
|---|---|---|---|
| AT-VGW-HW-3 | Up to 3 rooms | Up to 6 rooms | 250 simultaneous IP connections |
| AT-VGW-HW-10 | Up to 10 rooms | Up to 20 rooms | 250 simultaneous IP connections |
| AT-VGW-HW-20 | Up to 20 rooms | Up to 40 rooms | 500 simultaneous IP connections |
* A room can include AV control, room scheduling, or both. For example, with the AT-VGW-HW-10 there can be a total of 6 rooms with AV control only, 4 rooms for control and scheduling, and 16 rooms with scheduling only.
** Total available IP device capacity for AV system control, room scheduling, and AV asset management.
Software Gateway
Also available is the AT-VGW-SW software gateway, for installation on standard IT server infrastructure. It delivers up to 20 rooms with AV system control, with additional rooms available through a simple license (AT-VRL-SW).
| SKU | AV Control | Room Scheduling* |
|---|---|---|
| AT-VGW-SW | Up to 20 rooms | Up to 40 rooms |
| AT-VRL-SW | 1 additional room | 2 additional rooms |
* A room can include AV control, room scheduling, or both. For example, with the AT-VGW-SW there can be a total of 12 rooms with AV control only, 8 rooms for control and scheduling, and 32 rooms with scheduling only.
Total available IP device capacity for AV system control, room scheduling, and AV asset management is dependent on server hardware.
Velocity System: From Simple to Advanced Applications
Velocity Systems deliver processing for AV system control.
In addition to AV control, Velocity Systems also include room scheduling, which can be used alongside AV control in a room, or as a standalone touch panel installation.
A Velocity System gateway is designed to serve multiple rooms for AV control and room scheduling, while also providing asset management for centrally deploying and managing AV devices.
Add a second Velocity System gateway for continuous system reliability and automatic disaster recovery.
A Velocity System gateway can be remotely monitored, managed, and serviced with Velocity Cloud Lite, included at no extra cost.
