Matrox Graphics (Montreal) will be releasing its Maevex 5100 Series video over IP system by mid-April. Designed to enable extension of full HD quality (1080p60) video over standard IP networks, the Maevex 5100 Series of encoders/decoders is suited for digital signage, collaborative video walls, manufacturing, automation, and process control applications.
Samples of Matrox Graphics' Maevex encoder/decoders are now available to qualified AV installers and system integrators with full production slated for mid-April.

The new encoders and decoders capture, stream, and decode video from variety of sources, and allow for software-based decoding on non-Maevex devices. The Maevex units come bundled with the Matrox PowerStream software, allowing for remote management of devices and enabling a wide variety of user-defined stream-management features, including adjustable low bit-rate encoding for minimal and cost-effective bandwidth consumption.
