Challenge
CityU operates more than 150 spaces across its campus, including lecture theaters, classrooms, teaching studios, and event spaces. The scale of its audiovisual infrastructure has made system management a complex issue for technical support staff.
The university’s existing wireless microphone systems also posed challenges for everyday users. Audio quality and signal reception were poor which affected the classroom and remote learning experience. The university’s 2,500+ academic staff were also required to collect microphones for every class. Sharing of devices caused concerns around hygiene and safety following the pandemic.
Solution
CityU selected the Microflex Wireless (MXW) System for its advanced wireless technologies and networked management capabilities.
Each teaching staff now has their own microphone for use in any classroom across the campus. Before starting the lesson, teachers simply plug their microphone into the MXW Charging Station and press the “Link” button on the unit to connect with the local MXW Access Point Transceiver (APT). The APT automatically handles frequency coordination and management to ensure stable wireless performance and avoid any interference. The networked Charger and APT are further linked to the classroom sound system which is also integrated with Zoom to ensure remote students can clearly hear and follow the discussions.
To simplify audio system management across campus, CityU has also been heavily utilizing AV-over-IP. This has enabled the university to centrally manage its spaces and save maintenance costs. The networked MXW system further adds flexibility by allowing the university to easily manage the campus-wide system deployment through the MXW software application. All wireless microphones are listed in a single interface and equipment status can be monitored across the network.
Advantages
Through the wireless system upgrade, CityU’s academic staff and programs are now enabled with clear, high-quality audio, stable performance, and uninterrupted operation.

Sydney Jewish Museum
The Sydney Jewish Museum was established three decades ago by Holocaust survivors who came to Australia. The Museum’s tagline, ‘Where history has a voice’, encapsulates both the origins and mission of the Museum, while also fitting perfectly with the newly installed feature exhibit Reverberations: A Future for Memory. This interactive, high-tech attraction shines a light on the humanity and life experiences of Holocaust survivors who, in recent years, have shared their stories in person with visitors. Created in collaboration with the USC Shoah Foundation – The Institute for Visual History and Education, the unique visitor experience uses cutting-edge technology, including components from the Shure Stem Ecosystem, to transform the life stories of Sydney-based Holocaust survivors into interactive, on-screen biographies capable of conversation with visitors.
