Marietta, Georgia, USA  – June 15, 2017  –  As the ProAV industry rapidly transitions to AV-over-IP technology, DVIGear®, a leading supplier of AV connectivity products, continues to push the boundaries of innovation with its new DisplayNet DN-200 Series launching at InfoComm 2017 in Orlando.  DisplayNet employs the latest SDVoE technology to distribute uncompressed AV signals over 10GbE Ethernet networks.  DVIGear is also one of the four featured members in the SDVoE Alliance’s AV/IP Passport promotion at the show.  Attendees can have their AV/IP Passport stamped by DVIGear at Booth 2920 and at other member booths for a chance to win over $10,000 in prizes.

DisplayNet DN-200 Series:  Cutting Edge AV-over-IP

The DN-200 Series is a dramatic extension of the DisplayNet AV-over-IP product line.  It leverages the latest SDVoE technology to distribute uncompressed AV signals with resolutions up to 4K /60p over a 10GbE Ethernet network.  The  DN-200 Series adds support for HDMI 2.0 with up to 12-bit color, HDCP 2.2, DisplayPort 1.2, and High Speed USB 2.0.  A high-performance scaler in both the Transmitter (Tx) and Receiver (Rx) units enables very Fast Switching, MultiViewer, and enhanced Video Wall processing.  The DN-200 Series supports twisted pair (CAT6a or CAT7) media up to 328 ft. (100 meters), or Fiber Optic media using an industry standard SFP+ module supporting extension distances up to 18 miles (30 km). 

The DN-200 Series consists of four (4) different versions: DN-210, DN-210U, DN-220, and DN-220U.  The DN-210 units include a copper network port for the 10GbE link, whereas the DN-220 units employ an optical 10GbE port. The DN-210U and DN-220U include High Speed USB 2.0 connectivity.  Each version has an available Transmitter (Tx) and Receiver (Rx).  All these models will available for shipping in September 2017.

DVIGear will also exhibit the DisplayNet Server™ system control and management platform at the show.  DisplayNet Server™ provides a central interface between the control equipment/software and the DisplayNet endpoint devices; therefore, it should be included with every DisplayNet system.  This server supports web browser-based DisplayNet Manager™ software that provides a host of powerful control features, as well as tools to facilitate the use of third party controllers that enable DisplayNet to be easily integrated into a wide range of professional AV applications.  DisplayNet Server and DisplayNet Manager make the system integration process easier, faster and more efficient.

"Clearly, the ProAV industry is rapidly transitioning to AV-over-IP technology," said Steven Barlow, President of DVIGear,  "with the launch of the DN-200 Series hardware and software built on the latest SDVoE technology, our DisplayNet product line is continuing to lead this transition."
