Description

The VE8962 is a flagship HDMI-over-IP video extender that delivers pristine True 4K resolution with ultra-low latency over both Ethernet and fiber optic connectivity, making it ideal for versatile digital signage requirements. Whether in point-to-point or multipoint-to-multipoint installations, the VE8962 integrates seamlessly into existing networks, delivering uncompromised audiovisual content and control signals via HDMI, audio, USB, RS-232, and IR interfaces.

It is also flexibly scalable through daisy-chain deployment without the need for additional network switches, simplifying AV installations with cost, time, and space efficiency. Designed with sustainable service uptime and streamlined AV management in mind, the VE8962 features both network and power redundancy, along with intuitive web-GUI management – delivering a truly high-performance and cost-effective solution for any professional AV deployment.

Network Redundancy to Sustain System Availability

The VE8962 ensures smooth and reliable over-IP AV transmission over long distances via both LAN and optical network connections, maintaining system uptime through connection failover.

Versatile AV Configuration via Embedding / De-Embedding Audio

By embedding audio directly into the HDMI signal, both audio and video streams can be consolidated into a single HDMI connection, simplifying connectivity. Additionally, the audio can also be de-embedded to separate it from the video stream, ensuring compatibility with various audio systems when necessary.

Video Wall Distributions

The VE8962 can integrate easily into any video wall setup for comprehensive, large-scale audiovisual presentations, delivering content across up to 80 displays (e.g., 8×10 array) in either portrait or landscape orientation (90°/270°).

Local HDMI Input for Real-Time Source Updates

In situations where a timely update is required on the spot, the VE8962’s HDMI input allows plug-and-play connection to a source device for quick content setup at the receiver site. With a remote switch connected to the Contact port, you can easily switch between local and remote content sources as needed.

Streamlined AV Management via Web GUI

What you see is what you get. All audiovisual content is easily managed through the intuitive web GUI, which allows drag-and-drop placement of selected AV sources into customizable display layouts and backgrounds.

Scalable AV over IP Deployment

The VE8962 supports scalable AV over IP deployment with hundreds of endpoints across network infrastructure, enabling both point-to-point and multipoint-to-multipoint installations without distance limitations – offering the flexibility to adapt and expand your AV infrastructure as needed.

Daisy-Chaining Up to 30 Units

The networked AV infrastructure is scalable with up to 30 daisy-chained receiver units streaming video content from a single source, enabling flexible video distribution over the existing network – minimizing the need for additional network switches while maximizing efficiency in cost, time, and space.

Applications

Designed for scalable networked AV deployments with pristine audiovisual clarity in mind, the VE8962 excels in any digital signage application.
