Great Q. My guess is hdmi over cat6, but wireless would be pretty nifty

what if some a-hole tapes some sort of signal jammer to his leg and fucks the signal?

Yeah, that's def a concern here and probably why they will stick with the reliable wired connection  :th_twocents:

Great Q tho and I hope we receive an answer.

Should go back to the little flip scoreboard thing I got to operate when I was a ballboy  :th_twocents:

was thinking about the scoreboard size this morning.  wtf if it is too big and blocks the tv camera from seeing the players on the court?   


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.

The goal is for all the new Aruba WAPs to be up prior to first game.     :thumbs:
Niiiiice.

It doesn't take months to install and turn up AP's, even in a building the size of Bramlage.

Officially, four times the size of the original octatron.   :surprised:

My word, that's big.

I'm not sure I want to see oscar and/or sweaty people at that level of granular clarity.

Hey #teamitstoobig, remember when you're grandpa didn't understand why people needed a fancy 42" flatscreen? A tube 32" is perfectly fine!

Would be pretty cool to see Weber's 5-Hart players doing this.

I bet someone goes to throw a last second shot and it just smashes into the new board and it just comes crashing down.
