Visionary Solutions DuetE5-WP-H – 4K60 4:4:4 Wallplate Encoder, HDMI

Product Overview

The Visionary Solutions DuetE5-WP-H is a next-generation 4K60 4:4:4 AV over IP wallplate encoder that converges video distribution and Dante/AES67 audio networking on a single Gigabit Ethernet port. Built for commercial AV integration in conference rooms, classrooms, and lecterns, this HDMI wall plate encoder installs in a standard two-gang back box and is powered by PoE, so one category cable completes the connection. It gives integrators a clean, in-wall source connection point for scalable 4K video distribution over IP.

Product Description

The DuetE5-WP-H is the HDMI-only member of Visionary's 5 Series Duet wallplate lineup, encoding sources up to 4K60 4:4:4 with sub-frame latency of approximately 2 ms — visually lossless performance suitable for live presentation, camera feeds, and interactive content. Its JPEG2000-based codec is dynamically optimized with built-in AI, matching compression to scene content so both fine-line computer graphics and full-motion video transmit cleanly at bitrates from 50 to 200 Mbps (or Auto up to 800 Mbps). Dante/AES67 audio embedding and de-embedding ride the same Gigabit connection, with VLAN tagging available to separate audio and video traffic on managed networks. The wallplate mounts in walls, tabletops, lecterns, or floor boxes using a standard 2-gang US or UK back box, and PoE (IEEE 802.3af) power keeps the installation to a single cable. Enterprise security includes AES-256 stream encryption, 802.1x authentication, HTTPS secure API, and SSH management. Mass configuration through the embedded web UI lets integrators discover endpoints, export parameters to CSV, and push changes network-wide, while LLDP and QoS support align the system with enterprise network practices. Fanless convection cooling keeps the device silent at 0 dBA in meeting spaces. Deploy it alongside 5 Series decoders such as the DuetD-5 or the DuetD5-WP wallplate decoder for a complete end-to-end system.

Key Features

• 4K60 4:4:4 Video Encoding — Transmits full-chroma UHD video with HDR support for detail-critical presentation and signage content.
• Sub-Frame Latency (~2 ms) — Keeps live camera feeds and interactive sources in sync with essentially imperceptible delay.
• Single Gigabit LAN with Dante/AES67 — Carries video, networked audio embedding/de-embedding, and control on one cable with VLAN tagging.
• PoE Powered (IEEE 802.3af) — Eliminates local power supplies; a single category cable powers and connects the wallplate.
• Standard 2-Gang Mounting — Installs in US or UK back boxes in walls, tabletops, lecterns, or floor boxes.
• AI-Optimized Adaptive Codec — JPEG2000-based visually lossless compression dynamically tuned for graphics or motion video.
• Full Motion MJPEG Substream — Provides a secondary preview/monitoring stream without impacting the primary 4K60 stream.
• Enterprise Security — AES-256 encryption, 802.1x, HTTPS secure API, and SSH for deployment on corporate and government networks.
• Fast, Clean Switching — Tearing free with no black screen and no frame lock during source changes.
• HDCP 2.2/2.3 and HDMI 2.0 Compliant — Handles protected content from modern commercial sources.
• Silent, Fanless Operation — Convection cooled with no moving parts, rated 0 dBA acoustic noise.
• Broad Control Support — Vision Lite software plus Crestron, Q-SYS, Symetrix, and RTI drivers, with an integrator API.

Frequently Asked Questions

What back box does the DuetE5-WP-H require?
It mounts in a standard 2-gang US or UK back box and can be installed in walls, tabletops, lecterns, or floor boxes.

How is it powered?
Via PoE (IEEE 802.3af) from a network switch. Typical consumption is 12 W, and a single category cable handles power, video, audio, and control.

Which decoders should I pair with it?
Any Visionary 5 Series decoder — most commonly the DuetD-5 at the display or the DuetD5-WP for in-wall display-side installations.

Does it need a USB-C input version instead?
If your rooms require BYOD USB-C laptop connectivity, choose the DuetE5-WP-C, which adds a USB-C input with USB-over-IP alongside HDMI.

Can it run on our existing corporate network?
Yes. It deploys on any industry-standard Gigabit IP network, with VLAN tagging, QoS, LLDP, 802.1x, and AES-256 encryption to satisfy enterprise network and security teams. A physically separate AV network is also supported.

What control systems are supported?
Vision Lite control software is included in the ecosystem, and third-party drivers are available for Crestron, Q-SYS, Symetrix, RTI, and more; qualified integrators can access the full API.
