The SDVoE Alliance, a nonprofit consortium of technology providers collaborating to standardize the adoption of Ethernet to transport AV signals in professional AV environments, announces Advantech, a world leader in providing high-quality, trusted and innovative video solutions, has expanded its membership in the SDVoE Alliance as a contributing member.

In recognition of the SDVoE Alliance’s standardization of low-latency, 4K, AV-over-IP distribution, Advantech has added a range of SDVoE-compliant products to their 4K video processing product portfolio aimed at medical, industrial, and professional audiovisual applications. Advantech’s SDVoE-compliant products include a 4K SDVoE hybrid encoder/recorder, an HDMI-over-IP multicast transceiver system, and an SDVoE 4K live-video capture card compatible with other SDVoE-ecosystem offerings.

“We are thrilled to have Advantech renew and expand their membership in the SDVoE Alliance,” said Justin Kennington, president of the SDVoE Alliance. “Within the last year, Advantech has introduced new video transmission and processing solutions that have benefited SDVoE’s global members and customers. We look forward to Advantech’s new product introductions and expansion into new market verticals.”

“Since joining the SDVoE Alliance, we have developed a series of SDVoE-compliant products,” said Ted Feng, director of video solutions division at Advantech. “We found the advantages of easy installation, high compatibility, and premium product quality provided by SDVoE technology are appealing to the majority of customers. In keeping with our commitment to cultivate several vertical industries, Advantech plans to integrate SDVoE technology into various products, combine software and hardware with applications, and promote Advantech’s SDVoE-compliant video transmission and processing solutions to customers in many industries.”

In recent years, industry demands for remote data collection and real-time content management have dramatically increased AV-over-IP applications. AV-over-IP technology supports high-quality audio/video transmission over long distances without latency, making it ideal for content streaming applications. All AV distribution and processing applications that demand zero-latency and uncompromised video can benefit from SDVoE technology, which provides an end-to-end hardware and software platform for AV extension, switching, processing and control through advanced chipset technology, common control APIs, and interoperability.

About the SDVoE Alliance

SDVoE is an initialism for “Software Defined Video over Ethernet”. The SDVoE Alliance is a nonprofit consortium of technology providers collaborating to standardize the adoption of Ethernet to transport AV signals in professional AV environments and to create an ecosystem around SDVoE technology allowing software to define AV applications. The alliance operates the free SDVoE Academy training platform, participates in tradeshows and conferences, publishes white papers and case studies and promotes SDVoE technology, and solutions based on the technology, to system integrators, designers, consultants and end users. SDVoE Alliance founding members bring different perspectives to the SDVoE initiative spanning the entire ecosystem with expertise in chipsets (Semtech, Aquantia), switches and storage (NETGEAR) and AV end points (Christie Digital, Sony and ZeeVee).
