ZeeVee unveils ZyPer4K encoders and decoders

The ZyPer4K-XR and ZyPer4K-XS from ZeeVee allow for the distribution and switching of uncompressed 720p, 1080p HD, Ultra HD and 4K resolution content, audio and control via off-the-shelf 10Gb Ethernet switches. Their IP-based architecture enables the switching from one source to another without any frame loss – even at 4K resolutions. Both units offer a 1GB utility port and USB human interface device class (USB HID) support for devices such as keyboards, mice, game controllers and alphanumeric displays.

The ZyPer4K-XS encoders and decoders offer a smaller footprint and lightweight and durable chasses that reportedly enable them to be placed virtually anywhere. Both the ZyPer4K-XR and XyPer4K-XS include built-in support for energy-efficient 10Gbps PoE, enabling the delivery of both data and power on an IP network over Ethernet cables. Fanless thermal management keeps the units from overheating without generating distracting sound.

In other news, the latest version of the manufacturer’s ZyPer Management Platform has been unveiled and is said to bring advanced multiview, preset and grid features, along with other control features, which offer enhanced functionality and user experience. It has been designed to control the company’s ZyPer4K (SDVoE, uncompressed 4K, 10Gbps) and ZyPerUHD (JPEG2000, compressed, 1Gbps) AVoIP encoders and decoders. The onscreen interface enables the simple drag-and-drop creation of multiviews from up to 19 sources and videowalls (up to 15x15).

The ZyPerPad IP-enabled keypad controller is said to provide a simple means of sending commands to the ZyPer Management Platform. The wall-mounted unit's browser-based graphical user interface allows installers to easily configure the unit and it supports DHCP and static IP addresses. It also enables individual button configuration via a simple-to-use web user interface.
