SDVoE Alliance Develops First AV-Over-IP 8K Transport Solution

The transmitters and receivers of the alliance SDVoE, that will soon be on the market, offer 8K video over a standard network and are fully compatible with 4K SDVoE systems.

As noted in the statement of SDVoE Alliance, the HDMI standard 2.1 defines many 8K formats with different bit depth, chroma subsampling, frame rate and color space.

In this sense, SDVoe 8K is compatible with all of them without adding compression or latency. Four independent links on one switch 10G Ethernet standard provide 40Gb per endpoint 8K, no need for special or unusual switches.

“A los asistentes a InfoComm would have loved to see 8K AV over IP in person, but at least we could see a breakthrough in the lab," he says. Chris Chinnock, president of Insight Media and executive director of the 8K Association-. There are huge potential markets for 8K systems in the professional AV space, such as live events that feature massive screens and outdoor signage, donde vemos lienzos cada vez más grandes”.

In a social environment, este ejecutivo asegura que “la gente también querrá utilizar pantallas 8K en entornos corporativos, for smaller video walls, in museums and, Of course, in medical applications: ya hay endoscopios 8K”.

As he emphasizes Justin Kennington, President of the SDVoE Alliance, “somos los primeros AVoIP en hacer 8K, and the fact that it is fully compatible with existing SDVoE systems is important. Your 4K 10G SDVoE transmitter can send signals to your new 8K 4x10G SDVoE receiver. The opposite is also true, assuming you're sending 4K from the 8K transmitter (obviously you can't send an 8K signal to a 4K RX). What goes in, sale sin compresión ni latencia añadidas”.

All AV distribution and processing applications that demand zero latency and uncompromising video can benefit from SDVoE technology, offering an end-to-end hardware and software platform for the extension, switching, AV processing and control through advanced chipset technology, common control APIs and interoperability.

SDVoE network architectures are based on standard Ethernet switches, so they provide significant cost savings and greater flexibility and scalability of the system compared to traditional approaches, such as point-to-point extension and circuit-based AV matrix switching.
