4K60 SDVoE AV over IP System Controller
KanexPro AVO-IPCTL-SDV SDVoE AV over IP system controller — zero-frame latency matrix switching, 9×9 video wall, USB KVM, dual-network isolation, web GUI…
Delivers centralized management of SDVoE AV over IP systems — with zero-frame latency matrix switching, 9×9 video wall, 25-window multi-view, and USB KVM from a browser-based web GUI. The AVO-IPCTL-SDV connects to the same 10G managed switch as SDVoE encoders and decoders, auto-discovers all endpoints, and provides full system control of video routing, audio, RS-232, KVM, GPIO, and IR automation. Dual-network ports isolate AV multicast from the IT control network. Built for mission-critical deployments where frame latency is not acceptable, the AVO-IPCTL-SDV leverages the SDVoE AVP2000 chipset architecture to deliver visually lossless, zero-frame latency performance at 4K60 4:4:4. Works with AVO-IPSDV-4K SDVoE transceivers. Dual RS-232 ports, 4-channel GPIO, IR IN/OUT, and support for Dante customization make it the complete control solution for demanding SDVoE installations.

Questions
- What network switch is required for SDVoE endpoints?
- SDVoE endpoints (AVO-IPSDV-4K) require a 10G managed switch with IGMP Snooping and Jumbo Frame support. The controller VIDEO LAN (1G) connects to the same 10G switch. SFP+ or 10G RJ45 ports required for endpoints.
- Can AVO-IPSDV-4K switch between encoder and decoder mode?
- Yes — in the Device page, select Switch to Decoder or Switch to Encoder from the device drop-down. The device is removed from the system; re-scan to add at the new mode. Mode can also be set via the front panel button.
- How do I access the web GUI?
- Navigate to http://controller.local or 192.168.6.100 (no DHCP). Connect CONTROL LAN to IT LAN or PC. Default login: admin/admin. Set a new password (6–8 alphanumeric characters) on first login.
- Can I use a single network switch?
- Yes — connect all SDVoE endpoints, VIDEO LAN, and PC to a single switch. Leave CONTROL LAN floating. Note: CONTROL LAN connected while VIDEO LAN is floating is not supported.
- Encoders/decoders not discovered after setup?
- Verify VIDEO LAN is connected to the 10G switch with all SDVoE endpoints. Confirm IGMP Snooping and Jumbo Frames are enabled. Use Search Device Via Wizard to re-scan.
- How do I reset to KanexPro defaults?
- Hold RESET button for approximately 10 seconds until STATUS LED flashes. Release — controller resets and reboots. All device lists, routing presets, matrix presets, multiview configs, and user accounts are cleared.
- What makes SDVoE different from H.265 or JPEG2000?
- SDVoE uses uncompressed video transport over 10G Ethernet, delivering zero-frame latency and perceptually lossless 4K60 4:4:4 18Gbps quality. H.265 and JPEG2000 use compression and have measurable latency. SDVoE is the right choice for broadcast production, command centers, and live events where fra
- What network infrastructure does SDVoE require?
- SDVoE requires a 10G managed network switch for the AV endpoint network. The AVO-IPCTL-SDV controller manages the VIDEO LAN segment and bridges to the CONTROL LAN (IT/PC) on a separate port. The 10G switch must support multicast and IGMP snooping.
- What is locked signal routing?
- Locked signal routing allows Video, Audio, IR, RS-232, and USB signals to be independently routed for a decoder from different encoders. Select Follow to track the current encoder, or lock to a specific encoder per signal type. Note: RS-232 Command Relay disables locked signal routing.
- How does signal routing lock work?
- Video, audio, RS-232, IR, and USB sources can each be independently locked to a specific encoder on a decoder, allowing different sources for each signal type. For example, video can follow Encoder 001 while audio follows Encoder 002.
