The Vaddio™ AV Bridge CONFERENCE is a room based HD Media Streaming solution enabling IP or USB streaming. Like the original AV Bridge, it's an appliance that "bridges" the room's analog audio and video into a computer (PC or Mac) for UC applications, but with one important distinction. The AV Bridge CONFERENCE has been designed as an HD Encoder with 2-way analog audio to send the near-end audio to the far-end and return the far-end audio to the room's pro mixer with AEC.

The AV Bridge CONFERENCE offers a flexible A/V interface that is controllable with an embedded web server and the current settings are viewable from the front panel menu system. It accepts a multitude of video input resolutions from standard definition composite video (480i/NTSC and 576i/PAL) all the way up to HD 1080p/60 in HDMI and YPbPr, including the most relevant wide-screen VESA type PC resolutions (RGBHV or DVI).

The USB streaming functions using MJPEG (Motion JPEG) and standard UVC (Universal Video Class) with UAC (Universal Audio Class) drivers eliminate the need for installation of custom software drivers on the Host PC. The IP streaming uses RTSP or HLS (Apple's variant on HTTP streaming) and encodes H.264 video with AAC Audio. The Ethernet port also provides access to internal web pages for control, setup, and updating the software.

Use the AV Bridge CONFERENCE in UC conferencing applications to "bridge" video and audio signals into a PC or retrofit existing conference rooms by simply plugging a USB cable into a Host PC or connecting to an IP network.

The AV Bridge CONFERENCE supports high definition encoding of audio and video sources, producing superior quality results at the fraction of the cost of other similar products. It seamlessly integrates with Vaddio's HD cameras, presentation systems, video mixing consoles, and other pro audio products with AEC. The AV Bridge CONFERENCE is an unsurpassable value due to its ease of use, flexibility, and plug & play functionality.

Vaddio's AV Bridge provides integrators the ability to integrate soft codecs such as Skype, Cisco Jabber, Microsoft Lync, as well as many more, into their traditional AV designs. The AV Bridge provides the digital USB gateway to allow the integration of PRO audio and video equipment into any PC software application.

Based on UVC/UAC USB standards, no special USB drivers need to be installed, and as a result, it works seamlessly with any software application running on any operating system that supports USB 2.0 devices. Whether you want to do a Skype video call or need to set up lecture capture using Panopto's software lecture application, the AV Bridge provides the USB connection to your AV system. Want to record or stream a meeting? Use the recording and streaming software of your choice - and AV Bridge will connect the audio and video sources.

The AV Bridge can support switchable balanced or unbalanced audio - and switchable HDMI, RGBHV, SD or HD component video inputs. Video inputs can be up or down converted as required. Outputs include USB 2.0 with HD UVC/UAC device support - or an Ethernet network interface for both IP control and streaming, supporting RTSP and HLS streaming clients.

The AV Bridge makes it simple to encode, capture and stream your AV content through a variety of PC applications or directly to the network. You now have a true digital gateway to capture, record and stream those legacy analog solutions.

The Cables To Go PC-TV adapter device allows you to convert your VGA signal from a computer to a composite out video so you can connect your PC, Mac or other VGA devices to your TV or projector. This is useful when connecting your computer to an older TV or projector, that doesn't support VGA, for large screen viewing. This device also comes with VGA and S-Video output ports to allow viewing on multiple displays which can support these signals. The converter kit comes with a USB power adapter so it can draw power from your computer instead of needing a dedicated outlet. This device's small footprint makes it easy for travel or to fit in tight spaces. The menu options allow for customization of display adjustment settings.
