Gefen to showcase new connectivity solutions for Pro A/V and Rental & Staging at ISE 2014
Munich, 6th of December 2013 – Digital connectivity solutions provider Gefen is going to present its latest products at ISE 2014 in Amsterdam in Hall 1, Booth M27. New IP based KVM Extenders for HDMI, DVI and VGA and a series of Video Processors for Multiview, Seamless Switching and Video Wall application will be exhibited and demoed.
KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) over IP Solutions:
Gefen presents its series of Extenders which can operate over a „normal“ computer network. The KVM LAN products allow you to feed digital (DVI, HDMI) and analog (VGA) video into a Gigabit Ethernet network and to output is at any place. Moreover they extend USB-, RS-232, IR and bi-directional analog audio signals. Resolutions up to 1080p Full HD and 1920×1200 (WUXGA) are supported. A specifically developed codec allows for a latency of only 1-2 frames, (approximately 20ms), using a visually lossless compression scheme.
Besides complete Sender/Receiver packages, Senders and Receivers are also sold separately and can be combined within the same network. Thus HDMI, DVI, VGA Senders and Receivers can be used together to create a“ Virtual Matrix“, where each Sender can be accessed by multiple Receivers. The units can be placed up to 100 meters away from the network switch. The Extenders are ideal for large scale remote workstation access, and for digital signage applications.
The product range has just been expanded by the new DVI KVM over IP Extender with local DVI output . It extends DVI, USB, RS-232 and 2-way analog audio over a Gigabit Local Area Network. Resolutions up to 1080p FullHD and 1920 x 1200 (WUXGA) are supported.
The Sender is equipped with a loop-through DVI output so that users can install a local display at the computer side for monitoring video. Each Receiver unit has a built-in Ethernet switch and two additional RJ-45 Ethernet ports to allow for the connection of computers and other IP-enabled devices. Each Receiver unit allows the connection of four USB devices with up to 500mA current draw per port, providing access to keyboard, mouse, and other compatible devices.
Video Wall Controller:
The Gefen HD Video Wall Controller divides the image from an HDCP-compliant source using HDMI over four equal sized displays installed in 2×2 configuration. Its adjustable bezel compensation accommodates virtually any display frame thickness and ensures a smooth and seamless transition of video between all four screens. All four outputs can be scaled up to 1080p Full HD.
4×1 Multiview Switcher for HDMI:
The Gefen 4×1 Multiview Seamless Switcher for HDMI displays content from up to four HDCP-compliant sources on one display. Each of the windows can be individually scaled and positioned on the display as desired. Seamless switching ensures no frame loss during window or picture transitions. Input and output resolutions up to 1080p Full HD are supported.
The 4×4 Seamless Matrix:
The Gefen 4×4 Seamless Matrix for HDMI displays content from up to four HDCP-compliant sources on one or all four displays with full cross-point routing enabled. Each of the sources can also be individually scaled up to 1080p Full HD with the added ability to resize each image for an impeccable alignment and performance. Seamless switching ensures no frame loss during picture transitions. User-configurable routing scenarios are stored and saved using ten preset buttons.
For all of the three products control and set-up are handled via front panel buttons, IR remote control, RS-232 and IP (web server interface, Telnet and UDP). An intuitive on-screen menu simplifies system configuration.
