ZeeVee ZVPRO820I-NA ZvPro820i High Definition Video Encoder/QAM Module

A two channel QAM, MPEG2, Encoder/Modulator unit, the Zee Vee ZvPro820i, along with delivering uncompromising digital HD video distribution over your existing RF network from your unencrypted HDMI sources as well as providing simultaneous IP streaming with zero compromise to performance, allows you to easily distribute content up to 1080p resolution to an unlimited number of displays using the TV’s built-in QAM tuner. This eliminates the need for cumbersome, expensive set-top-boxes or media players at each display. Its onboard IP streaming functions can deliver remarkable quality video to any media player or other IP device - perfect for digital signage.

ZvPro Series

ZvPro units can be managed either locally through the color LCD screen on the front panel or remotely working with the Maestro web-based software. ZeeVee units can also support Dolby Digital audio encoding. ZvPro allows you to control power output from 25 to 45dBmV QAM output levels in 1dBmV steps. ZvPro delivers resolutions from 480i to 1080i/p. If you need a component or VGA connection, check out the ZvPro610i or the ZvPro620i.

Send HD Video to your Display using your Digital QAM Tuner or IP network

ZvPro lets you convert your content to a private television channel that is sent over a coax cable - just like your existing satellite or cable box - except you control the content. If your display or projector does not have a tuner, you can purchase a ZvSync decoder to convert the signal to a HDMI output to send to your display.

ZvPro iSeries models will also generate a simultaneous MPEG-2 video stream that can be sent over any IP network to IP set-top boxes, computers, or digital media players. This feature makes it easy for computer users to monitor news channels, worship services, presentations or other video where you may not have a coax cable connection.

Add a Digital and Tuner to your display with ZvSync

If you have a projector or other display that doesn't have a QAM or digital tuner, no problem. The ZvSync (sold separately) enables you to connect any display or projector to the ZvPro encoder coax connection and receive crystal clear 1080p video just as if your display was built with a digital coax tuner. Perfect for house of worship applications that use projectors and televisions in the same space.

Optional IP Output to send HD video directly to your network

ZvPro 810i and 820i products offer simultaneous IP network output that enables them to send HD video direct to a digital signage player, computer, or tablet simply by typing in the assigned address. The unit sends a standard MPEG 2 video stream that can be received by any standard device or player.
