Aten VE8662 True 4K HDMI H.265 over IP Transceiver with PoE

Description

The VE8662 True 4K HDMI H.265 over IP Transceiver with PoE sets a new standard for AV transmission, combining unparalleled efficiency with crystal-clear clarity. Functioning as either a transmitter or receiver, the VE8662 enables flexible AV-over-IP expansion from simple point-to-point installations to networks with hundreds of endpoints.

Powered by H.265 video compression, the VE8662 delivers ultra-clear True 4K visuals (4K60 4:4:4, HDCP 2.2) while requiring only 100 Mbps bandwidth, ensuring stable, low-latency streaming of video, audio, and control signals over standard IP networks.

With intuitive real-time control and instant visual feedback, users can quickly switch between multiple sources and displays for both vertical and horizontal video walls. Designed for scalable AV environments, the VE8662 integrates seamlessly into the ATEN Networked AV solution, expanding coverage for a wide range of digital signage and control room applications.

Streamlined Transceiver Setup in Seconds

The VE8662 ensures effortless deployment and can be easily configured as a transmitter for video sources or a receiver for displays. Simply assign an ID number instead of managing complex IP configurations for fast, hassle-free installation.

Optimized AV Transmission with H.265 Efficiency

Utilizing the H.265 video compression standard, the VE8662 preserves image quality while significantly reducing bandwidth usage, latency, and signal loss—delivering sharper and more refined visuals compared to H.264-based solutions.

Audio Embedding / De-Embedding for Flexible AV Configurations

Audio can be embedded directly into the HDMI signal, consolidating audio and video into a single connection for simplified setup. When required, audio can also be de-embedded to ensure compatibility with a wide range of external audio systems.

Intuitive Web GUI Management with Customizable Layout

Managing the VE8662 is effortless with its user-friendly Web GUI. Video sources and displays can be dragged and dropped onto customizable backgrounds or layouts, enabling fast switching and efficient system management.

Integrated Video Wall Control for Collaborative Workflows

Video content can be easily pushed or pulled between operators and video walls using KVM control with an On-Screen Display (OSD) menu. Boundless Switching allows seamless transitions between video sources simply by moving the mouse cursor across screens, enhancing situational awareness and real-time decision-making.

Dual Power Redundancy for Uninterrupted AV Excellence

Engineered for maximum reliability, the VE8662 supports both Power over Ethernet (PoE) and DC power for redundancy, ensuring consistent operation and uninterrupted AV performance even during unexpected power disruptions.

Scalable AV over IP Network Setup

The VE8662 supports multicast streaming and scalable cascading within a standard local area network, offering flexibility and convenience for dynamic AV-over-IP deployments of any size.

Applications

The VE8662 is ideal for digital signage environments such as sports venues, transportation hubs, and control rooms, where AV content needs to be efficiently managed and distributed across networked displays and video walls.

Features

The ATEN VE8662 True 4K HDMI H.265 over IP Transceiver with PoE combines transmitter and receiver functions in one unit, offering flexible deployment and easy configuration for various AV solutions.

Powered by standard H.265 encoding and decoding technology for video compression, the VE8662 enables efficient transmission of 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz (4:4:4) HDMI video / audio, stereo audio, USB 2.0, and RS-232 signals over a single Ethernet cable for up to 100 meters (point-to-point), with built-in error correction for low latency and reduced bandwidth usage. It also supports embedded and de-embedded audio, allowing audio to be embedded in the HDMI stream or extracted and delivered separately.

The VE8662 also features AV matrix switching with both horizontal and vertical display configurations for video walls. The Transceiver enables seamless collaboration between workstations and video walls with functions such as “push” and “pull” for instant content sharing, boundless switching for easy switching between receivers, and On-Screen Display (OSD) for simple configuration of both units.

With dual power supplies, DC-in, and Power over Ethernet (PoE), the VE8662 ensures continuous operation, even during power failures, making it ideal for mission-critical applications. The transceiver offers multiple control options,including pushbuttons, web GUI, RS-232 and Telnet / Reslink. The user-friendly web GUI enables customizable background and layouts for intuitive management over all video inputs and outputs.

With limitless scalability and flexibility, the VE8662 is perfect for diverse scenarios such as video broadcasting, casinos, sports centers, and smart buildings where managing multiple video feeds over a network is essential and can transmit signals from building to building.
