GV7600 / GV7601 Key Value Added Advantages
- Aviia leverages the large installed base of analog composite or component video over robust, co-ax cable based video systems with a low-power alternative interface providing a high quality, all-digital, long reach video transport transmit solution.
- Protects investments by providing a path to higher quality and higher resolution systems, with no incremental cabling costs.
- Upgrades existing analog composite over coax installations directly to high definition systems up to 1080-lines progressive.
- Ideal for real-time, full frame rate critical monitoring applications - becoming far more important to better identify criminals on CCTV applications.
- To ease cable routing within a system or enclosure, very thin, lightweight co-ax cables is a big advantage.
- Cameras offerings single BNC connectors are well established when linking to the frame grabbers.
- Routing expensive LVDS cabling and connectors over distances is a major disadvantage due to limited reach.
- Routing CAT5 ethernet cables over distances also means a major investment in the cabling infrastructure.
- Aviia can transmit power over the co-ax cable (POC) from 3V to 25V at 1A. Ethernet can offer similar with power over ethernet (PoE).
- Aviia can send data over a bidirectional auxiliary channel @ up to 6Mbps data rate while carrying the HD serial digital video content. This can be useful for controlling features such as pan/tilt/zoom etc.
- Extremely low latency with high resolution digital audio and video without any compression.
- Aviia can embed audio data within the video stream for extraction at the receiver.
