Worship AVL: A Leap Forward – Washington National Cathedral

Washington National Cathedral partners with Diversified to transition church from analog to HD capabilities and reach virtual congregation amid pandemic.

Over the last few years, we’ve seen a wave of technology refreshes among houses of worship across the country in order to better connect with today’s congregations. While the pandemic has put greater emphasis on reliable streaming infrastructures, many churches are taking the opportunity to modernize their AV and broadcast technology within their sanctuaries as well–a leap forward to transition church from analog to HD .

With a complete “rip and replace” of the Cathedral’s outdated system, Diversified’s team of specialists was brought in to assist with the specification, design and implementation of the new system.
