Savant has announced the introduction of a 4K video over IP switching platform that that Savant is actually targeting at both the HomeAV market as well as the ProAV market.
Savant claims this new product line delivers 4K/60 4:4:4 HDR video distribution over IP with (again, this is their claim) “zero frame latency.” That said, it does use a 10GbE switch and has both fiber and copper options. A transmit chassis for centralized sources and distributed receivers is the hub of the system that includes down-mixing capabilities and audio breakout options.
Advanced video processing features supported by the new platform include multi-video/video tiling, video wall and multi-switching applications. Not many specs are available yet as this is being launched this week at ISE here in Amsterdam but it will begin shipping in Q3 2017.
