“The pro video environment can be a confusing one given the wide
array of video formats, resolutions, codecs, connection interfaces,
and transport methods that reduce equipment compatibility and
increase system complexity and the risk of errors,” said Gabriel
Duschinsky, Chief Technology Officer at Theatrixx. “We are strong
advocates of standardization and making things simpler for the
user, so since we first heard about BlueRiver technology, we knew
it would be a perfect match for our vision. We firmly believe SDVoE
technology is the only true ‘common denominator’ to bridge all
these standards using a uniform approach, with full 4K60 support
and the lowest latency possible.”
Theatrixx’s xVision HDMI to Fiber and Fiber to HDMI converters
are a rugged pair of professional 4K60 HDMI extenders with an
integrated BlueRiver NT1000 chipset. The products include
professional all-locking connectors, a dedicated 1Gbps Ethernet
port for control, signal type LED indicators, and
zero-configuration. The transmitters and receivers utilize
BlueRiver technology for interoperability with other SDVoE-based
devices, of which over 150 products are currently available on the
market. Theatrixx’s BlueRiver-based xVision converters are
compatible with SDVoE-based devices and can be integrated in a
decentralized routing infrastructure. This interoperability
provides customers and system integrators increased flexibility and
simplicity in the creation of Pro AV applications.
“Theatrixx’s xVision converter line joins a growing list of
interoperable BlueRiver-enabled SDVoE products that deliver
reliable low latency AV for a wide range of markets,” said Don
Shaver, Vice President of Video Products for Semtech’s Signal
Integrity Products Group. “Theatrixx’s extensive experience in the
performing arts and pro AV space, coupled with BlueRiver’s emphasis
on simplicity and standardization will allow the expansion of
BlueRiver technology for use in these important applications.”
About Semtech’s BlueRiver® Platform
Semtech’s BlueRiver® platform, brings the disruptive power
of Ethernet to AV signal distribution, forever changing the
dynamics of the Pro AV industry by allowing installers and OEMs to
replace proprietary AV matrix switches with off-the-shelf Ethernet
networks that deliver dramatically better price/performance,
flexibility and scalability. The BlueRiver platform delivers a
single programmable system on chip (SoC), which can be used to
replace traditional AV/KVM extenders, matrix switchers, video wall
controllers and windowing processors with a simple network of
transmitters, receivers and off-the-shelf Ethernet switches.
BlueRiver chipsets are the foundation of SDVoE technology offering
zero-latency, uncompressed 4K streaming over standard Ethernet with
unique support for HDMI 2.0a and HDR. They also integrate
high-fidelity video scaling, windowing and audio downmixing. For
