Interoperability demonstrations will be featured on both the LANG AG stand 1-H50 and the SDVoE Alliance stand [3-B150] at ISE 2019 in Amsterdam next week.
In addition, an in-depth roundtable discussion of the benefits of interoperability for system designers, integrators and tech managers will be held on Wednesday Feb. 6 at 13:30 in room G109.
This follows a private plug-fest event at LANG ACADEMY in October, where LANG’s evaluation team proved full compatibility between devices from Christie, ZeeVee, IDK, and PureLink.
“At ISE last year, we presented a technical comparison between various 10G and 1G Ethernet-based video distribution systems,” said Thomas Wendeler, image processing product specialist at LANG AG, in the join announcement. “That comparison demonstrated that SDVoE-based products offered lower latency and measurably higher image quality than competing solutions.
“For 2019, we will demonstrate that SDVoE-based products from multiple vendors work seamlessly together as a platform for AV distribution and signal processing,” he said.
Platform interoperability means designers can create the system that best meets their customer’s needs, without the limits of a single provider’s catalog. Any training installers get on the platform gives them a baseline understanding of products built on that platform.
It becomes possible to upgrade and expand an AV system without having to stick with the original provider or throw out older gear. This reduces total cost of system ownership.
“As one of the world’s premier system integrators committed to quality and innovation, LANG faces situations everyday where interoperability would be a huge advantage,” said Justin Kennington, president of the SDVoE Alliance. “Their expertise and status as a trusted, unbiased third-party makes them uniquely positioned to test and recommend AV solutions to their customers and to the pro AV channel as a whole.”
All AV distribution and processing applications that demand zero-latency, uncompromised video can benefit from SDVoE technology, which provides an end-to-end hardware and software platform for AV extension, switching, processing and control through advanced chipset technology, common control APIs and interoperability.
SDVoE network architectures are based on off-the-shelf Ethernet switches thus offering substantial cost savings and greater system flexibility and scalability over traditional approaches such as point-to-point extension and circuit-based AV matrix switching.
