Lightware HDMI-TPX-RX107A-SR SDVoE compatible HDMI 2.0 scaling receiver - 91580014

Product Overview

The Lightware HDMI-TPX-RX107A-SR is an SDVoE-compatible HDMI 2.0 scaling receiver designed for high-performance AV-over-IP distribution over standard 10GbE networks. It receives compressed or uncompressed video streams from SDVoE-compliant encoders and outputs a scaled HDMI 2.0 signal to local displays, supporting resolutions up to 4K60 4:4:4. The built-in scaler makes it well-suited for multi-resolution display environments in corporate AV-over-IP installations, broadcast facilities, and unified communications rooms.

Product Description

The HDMI-TPX-RX107A-SR operates within the SDVoE (Software Defined Video over Ethernet) ecosystem, using zero-frame-latency transport over 10GbE infrastructure to deliver uncompressed 4K video. The integrated output scaler processes incoming streams and adapts them to the native resolution of the connected display, eliminating compatibility issues in mixed-resolution environments. HDMI 2.0 output supports deep color, HDR, and high-frame-rate content. The receiver includes a local HDMI input for direct source connection, enabling flexible signal routing between local and networked sources. Audio de-embedding is supported for analog and digital audio output at the receiver endpoint. EDID management is handled automatically or can be configured manually using Lightware's LW3 protocol, ensuring reliable handshake across diverse source and display combinations. The unit integrates with Lightware's TPS ecosystem, supporting HDBaseT connectivity for downstream distribution to additional displays.

Key Features

• SDVoE Compatibility — Operates within the SDVoE Alliance ecosystem for zero-frame-latency 10GbE AV-over-IP distribution
• 4K60 4:4:4 HDMI 2.0 Output — Delivers full-bandwidth 4K signals with HDR to connected displays
• Integrated Output Scaler — Automatically adapts stream resolution to match the native resolution of the connected display
• Local HDMI Input — Accepts a direct HDMI source for local switching between networked and local content
• Audio De-embedding — Extracts analog and digital audio at the receiver for connection to separate audio systems
• Automatic EDID Management — Reads display capabilities and communicates them upstream to ensure source compatibility
• LW3 Control Protocol — Open TCP/IP API for integration with Crestron, AMX, Extron, and custom control systems
• 10GbE Network Interface — High-bandwidth interface supports uncompressed 4K transport over standard fiber or copper 10GbE
• Compact 1U Half-Rack Form — Designed for rack or AV cabinet installation in space-constrained equipment rooms

Typical Applications

• Corporate boardrooms and meeting suites receiving 4K content from centralized SDVoE encoder pools
• Broadcast production facilities distributing uncompressed video over 10GbE infrastructure
• University lecture halls and auditoriums with mixed-resolution display environments requiring output scaling
• Command and control centers with multi-display video walls fed from AV-over-IP networks
• Unified communications rooms integrating networked AV with local source inputs
• Digital signage installations where a central media server distributes to multiple remote receiver endpoints

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this receiver require a specific SDVoE encoder brand, or is it compatible with any SDVoE device?

The HDMI-TPX-RX107A-SR is SDVoE Alliance certified, which means it can interoperate with any encoder that also carries SDVoE certification. Full feature sets — such as integrated scaling and EDID management — are validated when used with Lightware VINX encoders.

What type of switch is required for SDVoE operation?

SDVoE requires a 10GbE managed switch with support for IGMP snooping and multicast routing. Switches from Cisco, Arista, and Brocade are commonly deployed. Each port must support 10Gbps throughput for uncompressed 4K transport.

Can the integrated scaler downscale 4K sources to 1080p displays?

Yes. The output scaler supports downscaling from 4K to any lower resolution, including 1080p, 1080i, and 720p. This allows a single encoder pool to serve displays of different resolutions without additional conversion hardware.

Is the local HDMI input switchable with the network stream?

Yes. The local HDMI input and the SDVoE network input can be switched under control system command using the LW3 protocol, allowing operators to select between local and network sources at each endpoint.

Does the unit support audio-only routing independent of video?

Audio de-embedding is available at the output. For fully independent audio routing, the Dante/AES67 variant of Lightware encoders is recommended to route audio separately over the IP network.

What happens if the 10GbE network connection is lost?

The unit will fall back to the local HDMI input if configured to do so, or display a blank output with a status indicator. The LW3 control interface will report the connection state to the control system for monitoring and alerting.

Where can I purchase the matching SDVoE encoder to complete a system?

Creation Networks stocks Lightware SDVoE encoders and can configure matched encoder/receiver systems. Visit creationnetworks.net or contact our team directly for system design support.
