Calrec Creates New IP Role Of Network Specialist

Calrec has created a new IP technology position, tapping Dave Sampson as network specialist to provide in-house expertise to support customers in the move to IP.

A Calrec team member for seven years, Sampson previously was product test engineer where he was responsible for compliance testing of Calrec’s AoIP products to industry standards including ST2110, AES67, NMOS and more.

Dave Letson, VP of sales, said: “As IP connectivity becomes increasingly widespread and more accessible to all sectors of our industry, it’s vital that Calrec continues to invest in supporting its development. The transition to IP affects pre-sales, integration and post sales projects, and this new role helps us to support our customers move into an IP environment with confidence.”

He added, “Given Dave’s extensive experience both of AoIP and Calrec’s product range he will be a significant addition to the team that will strengthen Calrec’s reputation as a trusted advisor in IP networking.”

Sampson will provide technical support and consultancy for the design, development and delivery of IP-based networking solutions for Calrec customers, as well as create and deliver training and knowledge-based documentation.
