The SDVoE Alliance has announced a collaboration with Semtech and Audinate for a turnkey reference design intended to simplify AV-over-IP by combining SDVoE video and Dante audio, discovery, clocking, and software control.
Semtech’s BlueRiver AV-over-IP chipset is paired with Dante Embedded Platform to create an audio and software control platform for SDVoE-based products. The reference design is interoperable with more than 3,000 Dante-enabled audio products from more than 500 manufacturers. SDVoE technology expands the Dante ecosystem by enabling a category of AV-over-IP products traditionally supported by matrix switches. By combining SDVoE with Dante, manufacturers can create combinations that are optimized for both audio and video utilizing a single control interface in Dante Controller.
“Semtech’s BlueRiver platform is designed to provide an efficient and cost-effective solution to address the ever-changing technology requirements of the professional AV market,” says Don Shaver, vice president of video products for Semtech. “The collaboration between Semtech, the SDVoE Alliance and Audinate is designed to simplify AV-over-IP technology without compromising quality or performance.”
“The SDVoE Alliance is a forward-looking alliance that is focused on future-proof technology. We believe in supporting new features and capabilities without new hardware,” adds Justin Kennington, president of the SDVoE Alliance. “The reference design is eliminating traditional constraints by combining the power of SDVoE video, Dante audio, and Dante Controller to create a unified solution for software control.”
“From the beginning, Audinate has focused on simplifying the customer experience for networked audio and video. This partnership with Semtech and the SDVoE Alliance extends this vision into the 10G space by providing a unified control experience for customers of SDVoE products,” concludes Josh Rush, chief marketing officer for Audinate.
Manufacturers interested in scheduling a demonstration of the reference design can contact the SDVoE Alliance, Semtech or Audinate.
