The winners were chosen at the alliance’s annual general meeting
SDVoE Alliance members voted to honor special achievement by member companies in two broad categories — project excellence and product innovation — at the organization’s annual general meeting,
The winner of the project excellence award is ZeeVee’s installation of ZyPer4K encoders and decoders at Quadram Institute, one of Europe’s largest endoscopic screening suites. This project exemplifies how SDVoE technology is helping to advance the practice of medicine and improve delivery of healthcare. The system supports the facility’s diagnostic, teaching and research mandates and is designed to handle more than 40,000 procedures each year.
The industry’s first PCIe video capture card to feature native SDVoE connectivity, YUAN’s SC710N1-L, receives top honors for product innovation. It offers real-time capture of lossless 4K video and does not require a fan, making it a fitting choice for studios where quiet operation is a necessity.
“SDVoE-based products lead the industry in performance and are setting new benchmarks for marquee installations worldwide,” said Justin Kennington, president of the SDVoE Alliance. “We are proud to recognize ZeeVee’s and Yuan’s achievements as representative of our growing ecosystem that now includes 45 member companies with over 200 interoperable products.”
Project Excellence finalists included the Christie Terra installation at Zurich Opera House and Aurora Multimedia’s installation at the Harrisburg University eSports facility.
Finalists for the product innovation award included Aurora Multimedia’s IPX-TC3-WP, the industry’s first SDVoE transceiver wall plate and Zigen’s IP-Logic AV distribution system.
All AV distribution and processing applications that demand zero-latency, 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. SDVoE network architectures are based on off-the-shelf Ethernet switches thus offering substantial cost savings and greater system flexibility and scalability over traditional approaches such as point-to-point extension and circuit-based AV matrix switching.
