Switching

In an AV environment, there may be multiple devices that need to be displayed on a screen. For instance, in a meeting room participants may come with their individual laptops which may need to be displayed one after the other. The conventional way of doing it is to disconnect the devices and interchange them manually. This is not only a time consuming process but also leads to unwanted distractions during meetings.

To overcome this problem, we integrate AV switching systems which provide a reliable alternative. These devices enable high speed content transmission and switching with low latency between multiple sources onto a single or an array of displays.

AV switchers come in various configurations, support multiple formats and have a range of different input and output interfaces. They maintain the native resolution of the content and help manage meetings in AV environments with ease of connectivity.

We understand the user’s application and integrate switchers with required features to make their AV experience seamless and user friendly.

control

In an AV environment, control systems simplify the user’s AV equipment so that events and collaborations run seamlessly. From screens, speakers, microphones to lights and cameras – control systems take care of everything, enabling users to focus on their agenda. 

A control system comprises of a processor and a touch panel or a button operated control pad with an integrated, programmable interface. This interface manages, commands and regulates the behavior of every integrated device.

Through control system integration, the user can, for instance, get a one touch command system that closes screens and blinds, dims lights and manages ventilation before automatically selecting the appropriate input and starting a presentation from a pre-designated display.

Using AV controllers, we design multiple customized programs for users which ensures that they have an ideal AV environment for every application.

Types of Switching & Control Solutions

Video Wall Controller

A video wall controller is a powerful system with advanced controls offering great flexibility, scalability and creativity of content in various video walls and LED walls.

With the help of a video wall controller, a single image can be scaled across an entire video wall or windows of multiple images can be spread out across the display.

The controller takes one or several inputs and transmits the content onto multiple displays, allowing users to manage the layout of the content being displayed on their video walls.

It ensures high speed video signal processing and switching with very low latency. Available with multiple input-output interfaces like HDMI, DVI, SDI, Display Port, IP, HDBaseT, Fiber and composite formats in High Definition (HD) and Ultra High Definition (4K) resolutions, it provides flexibility for multiple connections and applications.

AV over IP

AV over IP is a technology in which audio visual signals are transmitted over network such a LAN or WAN. It uses the standard network equipment to transmit, control and switch AV signals.

AV over IP technology comprises of an encoder at each input source and a decoder at each output destination, i.e. devices which encrypt and decrypt AV signals over the network.

These encoders and decoders are connected to standard Ethernet switches. As a result, a number of encoders and decoders can be connected, with the option of scaling up at lower costs. It also enables AV signals to be transmitted over large distances and switched with minimal latency.

Since AV over IP enables AV signals to be transmitted over the network, it bridges the gap between the AV and IT infrastructures, thereby creating a catalyst for cost effective collaboration.

Matrix Switcher

A matrix switcher is a device which enables transmission and switching of audio visual signals from multiple sources to several devices in different permutation and combinations.

It accepts AV signals from a range of sources like computers, cameras, DVD players etc. and routes the output to different destinations, such as projectors, monitors, and video conference codecs.

With the help of a matrix switcher, users can choose which content to route through which display. Multiple presets of different input-output configurations can be designed and switching between them can be done in real time basis. 

A matrix switcher maintains the native resolution of the content, ensures high speed AV signal processing and switching with very low latency.

Presentation Switcher

A presentation switcher is a device which accepts audio visual signals from multiple sources via various interfaces like HDMI, DVI, SDI, Display Port, HDBaseT, Fiber and composite formats, and routes the signal to a one or more displays.

It provides a simple solution for centralized signal switching in an AV environment.

Offering powerful switching, distance transport and content scaling, a presentation switcher ensures presentations run seamlessly, at high resolutions.

Wireless Presentation System

A wireless presentation system is a device which allows users to wirelessly mirror their notebooks, mobile phones and laptops onto various large format displays.

This mirroring can be done with a click of a button and the content can be easily switched between multiple sources.

It is a unique system that replaces the complicated wiring required in an AV environment, thereby making it an effective and efficient solution.

Video Scaler

A video scaler is a device which enhances or reduces the resolution of the content being presented, to match the native resolution of the display.

The up-scaling or down-scaling of the resolution ensures high quality images in various large format displays in an AV environment.

A video scaler enables switching, scaling and high speed signal processing of AV content in multiple environments.

Switcher & Splitter

A switcher and a splitter are video switching and amplification devices, required to manage and drive a number of sources and displays in an AV environment.

A switcher accepts audio visual signals from multiple sources and routes the signal to a single output device. Whereas, a splitter accepts audio visual signals from a single source and routes the same to multiple output devices.

The two devices maintain the native resolution of the content, ensure high speed signal distribution and switching with very low latency.

Signal Extender

A signal extender is a device which amplifies audio visual signals over long distances using twisted pair, fiber or coax cables.

Types of AV signal extenders include HDMI extenders, DisplayPort extenders, DVI extenders, VGA extenders, USB extenders, Control extenders, Repeaters to name a few.

These devices ensure high speed transmission of AV signals over large distances while maintaining its native resolution.
