LEA Professional has launched its Cloud Platform, responding to increased demand for remote management at a time of social distancing. The platform provides systems integrators with powerful, reliable and secure remote monitoring and control capabilities across the line-up of IoT-enabled LEA Professional Connect Series amplifiers.
All LEA Professional amplifiers are equipped with the Amazon Web Services (AWS) IoT Core, a cloud platform that allows integrators to control and monitor critical operational data points that are integral to maintaining system health securely and remotely. The capability delivers greater visibility and response time, which enhances preventative maintenance, simplifies troubleshooting, and cuts down or even eliminates on-site maintenance requirements. All of this together provides a unique opportunity for new recurring revenue streams for integrators to add to their service contracts.
Using a built-in Amazon Web Services (AWS) IoT Core, system integrators can import Connect Series systems into the LEA Professional Cloud with 256-bit SSL encryption. Once in the Cloud, individual amplifiers or entire venues of amps can be accessed and controlled securely, from anywhere in the world without the need to VPN into a Local Area Network.
‘When LEA Professional was established 18 months ago, we set out to merge elite amplifier technology with the quickly evolving Internet of Things,’ says LEA Professional founder and CEO, Blake Augsburger. ‘By partnering with experts in cloud integration, we wanted to provide integrators with new recurring revenue business opportunities and end-users with greater performance, reliability, and feature-sets. This platform comprehensively achieves those goals and transforms the pro audio industry and the day-to-day operations of every integrator who uses it.
‘The vision for LEA Professional was built entirely around this cloud platform and we are excited to launch it at a time when the industry is actively seeking this solution,’ he adds. ’We built the cloud platform knowing that it was the future, what we didn’t realise was just how soon that future would arrive.’
