The Lightware UBEX-Pro20-HDMI-R100 is a fiber-optical, scaling AV-Over-IP system which allows uncompressed 4K UHD@60Hz 4:4:4 signal extension with latency-free multistreaming, designed to use in a 10G Ethernet network. UBEX operates with zero frame latency, provides seamless switching and lossless reproduction of source signals of up to 4K60Hz 4:4:4, without artifacts. Uncompressed 4K60Hz 4:4:4 data transmission, or visually lossless compression at higher data rates.
It has standard, 10 Gbps SFP+ optical modules installed, which are fieldexchangeable by the user. UBEX can transfer two video signals over a single 10G link with minimal compression, which requires half the router size compared to the needs of similar, 10G IP based architectures. With a 20G configuration, UBEX can transfer 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 over two links uncompressed. The maximum reachable distance is ranging between 400 m and 80 km, depending on the type of singlemode or multimode SFP+ optical modules installed in the device. The UBEX design also favors dual-screen applicationsas a single UBEX device can handle 2x HDMI 2.0 video ports. For video signals which can be transferred within the 10G speed limit of a single optical fiber, a video signal redundancy feature is available employing the second optical fiber channel.
Multiview Feature
The UBEX receiver in multiviewer operation mode is able to receive 5 video streams (in matrix mode) from the network and create two output videos from them. The 1st output is the multiview built from the 4 streams, and the 5th stream is the 2nd output.
The output image can be positioned in any manner, including the option to turn it off for implementing Picture-in-Picture (PIP) and Picture-by-Picture (PBP). Letterboxing is achievable within each channel, and settings allow the image to fit into the specified frame using Fit, Stretch, or Center options.
In addition, in the multiviewer operation of UBEX, it is possible to set fades for different image transitions using an external controller through the alpha layer.
The Video Wall Wizard for UBEX features quick video wall installation with bezel adjustment and cropping, includes options for various layouts within the video wall matrix and also allows zones for smart management.
The R-type UBEX product variant is specifically designed to withstand the daily wear and tear impacts of dynamic, Rental & Staging type of applications. The devices shares the features of the standard UBEX-PRO20-HDMI-F100 model, with additional features and changes in build and dimensions.
