A company seeks the help of PTS Singapore so they can conveniently conduct meetings in two adjacent rooms simultaneously.

Overview

 

A company seeks the help of PTS Singapore so they can conveniently conduct meetings in two adjacent rooms simultaneously.


Employees found themselves unable to successfully conduct meetings or teleconferences simultaneously in two adjacent rooms in their office.


The PTS acoustics team found that the cables of the displays in both meeting rooms were back-to-back and improperly terminated.


Cables of wall-mounted displays that were improperly terminated


The Solution

 

The improperly terminated cables weakened the sound insulation between the rooms and led to “noise spills”. This was why the users of both meeting rooms were unable to communicate well during discussions or teleconferencing.


Socket boxes were installed to give the wall-mounted display cables proper termination.


The solution was to re-terminate the cables using proper socket boxes and apply an air-tight mastic sealant. It improved the sound environment in both rooms, making it more conducive for meetings and teleconferencing.
