ATEN Announces New A/V Distribution Solution at InfoComm 2011

Economical Solution for A/V Integrators Expands ATEN's Digital Signage Product Suite

ORLANDO, Fla., June 15, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- ATEN today unveiled its VanCryst(TM)  VS1204T/VS1208T A/V Over CAT5 Distribution Unit, a cost-effective and efficient solution for sending high-quality audio and video content to multiple displays. The distribution unit - announced concurrently with the VanCryst(TM) Media Matrix Solution - represents a concerted effort by ATEN to extend the reach of VanCryst(TM), ATEN's line of professional A/V solutions, in the North American market.   

The VanCryst(TM) VS1204T/VS1208T A/V Over CAT5 Distribution Unit rounds out the distribution solution family of products by offering utility at a competitive price in addition to ATEN's high-end, feature-rich solutions.  The distribution unit is ideal for any professional A/V installation that requires multimedia content to be delivered to multiple destinations.  The product has one video/audio input, which can be delivered to either four (VS1204T) or eight (VS1208T) video/audio outputs by way of CAT5e cables.   

A/V integrators benefit from the breadth of ATEN's VanCryst(TM) offerings as well as the cost-savings of working with a true manufacturer.  ATEN's digital signage products run the gamut, including video switches, distribution units, extenders and an array of peripherals, as well as all the necessary hardware and software - a veritable one-stop-shop for A/V integrators.  Able to control costs, ATEN incentivizes integrators by sharing better profit margins with them.   

The distribution unit also supports both local and remote displays.   Utilizing the VE170R or VE170RQ VGA/audio extenders, the VanCryst(TM) VS1204T/VS1208T can deliver a signal up to 1,000 feet away.  The RQ extender features ATEN's patented Deskew technology, which supports manual synchronization of RGB signals to correct the color phase and timing mismatch that occur over long distances.  As such, the distribution solution has particular utility when transmitting audio/video content over distances greater than 500 feet.

One such application is large houses of worship, which require support for several displays and extensions.  The VanCryst(TM) VS1204T/VS1208Tenables the preacher to display his sermon onto large multiple displays for the benefit of worshipers sitting at a distance in a large auditorium.  When there is attendance overflow, the distribution unit is able to extend video content into rooms adjacent to the auditorium in order to accommodate worshipers.  Content that is projected on the big screens can be controlled conveniently while the presentation is running from a server in the data center, preventing any disruption to the service.

"Drawing from years of audio/video technology expertise, ATEN is catering to a variety of A/V integrator needs," said James Hsieh, CEO of ATEN.  "Some installers require more sophisticated solutions that come with a range of features while others require more economical, straightforward solutions to their particular business needs.  Providing for all of the above, we believe that ATEN is poised to make big gains in the lucrative North American digital signage market."
