The AVX series includes two interoperable chipsets, the
copper-only AVX100 and the AVX200T, providing the industry’s first
bidirectional video transmission capability over a single fiber or
copper cable and a built-in processing engine for broadcast
quality, scaling and video wall processing.
“The traditional AV extension and matrix switching market has
been limited to a single-sourced choice of technology for far too
long,” says Don Shaver, Vice President of Video Products for
Semtech’s Signal Integrity Group. “Semtech’s AVX series not only
provides a compelling alternative to competing technologies, but
also delivers unique new advantages such as true transceiver
capability and integrated AV processing.”
AVX series features include:
- Extension of audio, video, GbE and
control signals between AV equipment (e.g. sources, display, AV
matrix switches)
- Full range of formats including 4K/60
RGB 4:4:4, HDR, 3D & broadcast friendly 4K/60 10-bit 4:2:2
- HDMI audio embedding, de-embedding and
breakaway
- Integrated USB, RS-232, IR, GPIO and
CEC
- Broadcast quality scaling, color space
conversion and frame rate conversion*
- Video wall processing with bezel
correction*
- Audio down-mixing engine from
multi-channel PCM audio to stereo*
- Up to 200m range over cat-x with PoE
using compatible phy and cable type
- Up to 550m range over multimode fiber
and 40+ km range over single mode fiber*
- Less than 0.1 milliseconds latency at
maximum cable reach
- Transceiver capability for
bidirectional video on a single cable*
* AVX200T version
The AVX chipsets will be integrated into products such as AV
transmitters, AV receivers, AV matrix switchers, presentation
switchers, video wall controllers, and other AV equipment to
address a variety of market applications including AV/KVM
extension, AV/KVM matrix switching and video wall processing.
Unlike incumbent technologies, each AVX chipsets is configurable as
a transmitter or receiver (AVX100), or as a transmitter and
receiver (AVX200T), greatly simplifying procurement and supply
chain management.
Semtech will be providing detailed specifications, pricing and
availability information at InfoComm 2019, the largest professional
audiovisual event in North America, June 8 – 14 in Orlando,
Florida. To request a meeting, contact a regional sales
manager.
