The Audinate Group has announced Dante AV-H, a software solution designed to allow original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) the ability to incorporate Dante control into existing H.264-based IP video product designs.
Part of the Dante AV product family, the company has also announced ten partners who will build products with Dante AV-H, including AVer, Avonic, Bolin, BZB Gear, HuddleCam, Lumens, Minnray, Telycam, Televic and ValueHD.
H.26x remains one of the most widely used video compression standards and is available on products that use H.26x codecs available on most Systems on a Chip (SoC). The software-based Dante AV-H enables OEMs to develop fully manageable video products that fit into the Dante ecosystem. It provides IT-level management to cost-effective IP video products such as PTZ cameras and encoders/decoders using Dante Domain Manager. Dante AV-H also integrates industry standard Dante Audio into AV-over-IP products, allowing users to independently route audio wherever needed.
‘Dante AV-H brings interoperability to AV-over-IP products, providing easy-to-use discovery, connectivity and manageability while using the familiar, reliable H.264/265 codecs already supported in common hardware,’ says Senior Product Manager, Wim Roose. ‘Also, because Dante AV-H is software based, it is easier, less costly and faster to integrate than hardware-based solutions. We are excited to see the strong interest in the market as we help our OEM partners launch a new wave of innovation.’
Dante AV-H is now available for OEMs to purchase.
