Next, Tang turns to InfoComm 2025, which Apantac has equally big plans for. “Of course, we have to show IPMX,” he says. “IPMX is the latest buzz.” Accordingly, at its booth, Apantac will demonstrate an SDM running on IPMX. Turning to the topic of audio-over-IP, Tang promises, “We will show even more formats that could be decoded on audio-over-IP into Dante.”
Mentioning another InfoComm 2025 highlight that Apantac is excited about, Tang says, “[We’re going to show] a very interesting digital signage solution using HDBaseT.” With a chuckle, Tang adds, “I’ll leave that as a tease. Please come by our booth and take a look at that. We’re going to show some interesting application on that.”
