Apantac, provider of cost-effective multiviewers, video walls, extenders, and signal processing solutions announced that its 4K/UHD conversion technology is being used by the EURO International Broadcast Center (IBC) in Paris, France. The IBC is the heart of the EURO 2016 Championship, where all venue signals are received and distributed out to broadcast partners for global transmission.

Test & Measurement leader, Omnitek begins worldwide shipping of the Ultra 4K Tool Box featuring the analysis, generation and conversion of UHDTV signals including the worlds very first 12G-SDI Physical Layer analysis and generation toolset.  The Tool Box is now in full production and shipping to satisfy the demand for 12G-SDI product design.

Connectivity solutions provider Gefen ups its switching game with the release of its new Multi-Format Processor (EXT-MFP). This simple to use, single box solution provides ample source switching, format conversion with automatic scaling and independent digital and analog audio routing with comprehensive mobile control options. It is ideal for any installation supporting a mix of digital and analog audio/video sources and two high definition DVI and HDMI displays or projectors.

Digital connectivity solutions provider Gefen today announced the release of a new splitter for computers and monitors using DisplayPort connectivity. The Gefen 1:4 DisplayPort Splitter provides an easy method of delivering the same video source to multiple displays in any viewing environment.

This new Splitter comes equipped with one DisplayPort cable connected to the input and four DisplayPort outputs that support all computers and displays using the new interface standard. Clear high resolution graphics in resolutions up to 2560 x 1600 are delivered to all four displays simultaneously.

To extend monitors throughout the venue, Gefen offers extension solutions ranging from a DisplayPort Super Booster cable for short-range applications to fiber optic-based cabling for long distance installations.

Digital connectivity solutions provider Gefen today announced two new comprehensive KVM (keyboard, video, mouse) switchers for DisplayPort computer systems using USB 2.0 peripherals. The 4x1 DPKVM Switcher and the 8x1 DPKVM Switcher connect up to four or eight computers to the same monitor and keyboard/mouse connection. This streamlines the desktop and eliminates the need for too many devices that can crowd the workspace while increasing productivity and performance.
