Application Notes: Dante in Corporate AV Installations
Boardrooms, conference rooms, campuses, lobbies — real-world deployment scenarios Corporate AV is among the most practical deployment target for…
Overview
The KanexPro JPEG2000 AV over IP family delivers visually lossless 4K60 video distribution over standard 1G Ethernet. Using the ISO/IEC 15444 JPEG2000 codec, these devices encode and decode 4K60 HDR video with approximately one frame of latency — making them suitable for video walls, command centers, and high-quality distribution applications where image fidelity is critical.
