What is AV over IP?

AV over IP (Audiovisual over Internet Protocol) is a modern solution for transmitting video and audio signals over standard network infrastructure, replacing traditional AV distribution methods like HDMI and SDI cables. By leveraging network switches, AV over IP (or AVoIP)  allows for greater scalability, flexibility, and cost-efficiency in AV installations across industries such as education, corporate environments, digital signage, and live broadcasting.

Unlike conventional AV systems that require direct physical connections, AV over IP systems encode video and audio signals and send them over Ethernet, allowing users to manage, control, and distribute content seamlessly across multiple devices and remote locations.

The Two Types of AV over IP Systems: Separate Transmitter/Receiver vs. Transceiver

AV over IP solutions generally fall into two categories:

  1. Systems with Separate Transmitter and Receiver Units
    • These systems use dedicated transmitters/encoders (Tx) and receivers/decoders (Rx).
    • Transmitters encode and send AV signals over the network.
    • Receivers decode and display the content on output devices like monitors or projectors.
    • This setup is ideal for fixed, large-scale AV deployments where each endpoint has a specific role.
  2. Systems with Transceivers
    • These devices can function as both a transmitter and a receiver, depending on configuration.
    • A single unit can be dynamically switched to send or receive signals.
    • This provides greater flexibility, reducing the number of required devices in an AV setup.
    • Ideal for dynamic, scalable applications where sources and destinations frequently change.

Now, let’s explore BZBGEAR’s three AV over IP solutions, all of which are TAA compliant, meaning they adhere to the Trade Agreements Act (TAA) regulations.
