The VLX-TCW2 Series provides one of the most advanced IP Streaming solutions on the market utilizing Aurora's IPBaseT technology, which synergizes various IP/AV standards to work together as one. It is the industry's first 4K UHD transceiver with only 1.5 Frame (25ms) latency and visually losses compression. Using a transmitter (encoder) and receiver (decoder), respectively, used to be the standard - until now. The VLX-TCW2 Series can be set up as either one to make installation, inventory, and troubleshooting easier.</p><p>Another industry first is the option slot to add other IP capabilities, like Dante audio, for a more complete, distributed system.<br /></p><p>Audio, video, data, and control can be sent securely to one or many units using off-the-shelf 1G RJ-45 Ethernet switch. When the VLX-TCW2 is set up to be a transmitter, the VGA/HDMI (VLX-TCW2V) or 2 HDMI (VLX-TCW2H) inputs become a source switch and the HDMI output becomes a potential loop out. When set up as a receiver, a user can select the local HDMI inputs or an IP source. Seamless switching of the sources further enhances the presentation. Regardless of how the VLX-TCW2 is set up, the audio can be de-embedded at any location, break away, and/or be sent to or received from a Dante enabled device. The USB is also flexible, working as a KVM and/or a high-speed data transfer (480Mbps) for memory sticks. Each VLX-TCW2 USB feature can also be set as a host or a device. To keep the system friendly, an OSD and integrated web server are available for easy navigation and setup of features.</p>
