With the ZeeVee HDB2840-NA, part of their HDBridge 2000 Series, you can distribute 4 sources/channels of HD video directly from any unencrypted HDMI source up to 1080p resolution to a virtually unlimited number of displays, and over practically any distance, and then change sources on any display simply by changing the channel on the display, pretty much eliminating the need for a traditional AV matrix switcher. This product will convert your unencrypted HDMI output into a RF signal that can then be sent over coax cable to a HDTV display's QAM digital tuner. This is the ideal solution for anyone seeking an easy, affordable way to support a large number of displays, like at a house of worship, sports bar, or digital signage. You can combine multiple HDbridge units to create a headend for you video network that can support over 100 channels at each display. The HDbridge's Maestro software enables quick setup for customizing your sources and channels, plus a front LCD panel for controlling and monitoring the unit. It's designed especially for high channel density situations where compatibility, rapid deployment, and advanced management are critical. Found in some of the world's most famous ballparks, it's a great solution for environments with a large number of displays, such as entertainment facilities, stadiums, or Broadcast environments.
With the HDbridge2840, you can distribute video in nearly any resolution from a unencrypted HDMI source up to 1920x1080, whila also supporting EIA/CEA-608 closed captions via the composite video input. Great for sports bars with multiple displays.
There's no limit to the number of displays that you can employ using the HDbridge. It converts your unencrypted HDMI video sources into private television channels that can send content from 2 on up to 2000+ connected displays over nearly any distance, all via coax. HDbridge units can also be combined to support over 100 different channels on your network.
An easy to read LCD color front panel featured on the HDbridge 2000 series makes it easy to set up and monitor your channels, as well as check firmware and identify IP addresses with no need for a computer. Status of video and audio content being shown is provided by the panel via green, yellow, or red color bars on each channel, with the panel also enabling easy adjustment of RF power and audio delay, helping to ensure perfect picture and sound on every screen.
