Black Box presents its new HDMI controllers to create spectacular video walls

VPlex4 models (with DVI input) y VPlex4000 (con HDMI y Display Port) They solve the limitations of standard video wall screens for the distribution of content over the screen network and facilitate the technician's work to preview the results.

Developed by Black Box to create spectacular video walls with an easy-to-use tool to distribute content across screens, Videoplex4 controller supports single or dual link DVI input, with the possibility of dividing it to more than four monitors, while the VPlex4000 model has HDMI and Display Port for an unlimited number of screens.

One of the advantages of these systems is that it is possible to cascade several controllers to add more screens., and that HDCP encrypted content can now also be viewed.

The Videoplex Controller 4 perform input scaling, either DVI or analog RGB, with maximum output resolution of 1,080p. All four monitors can display a cropped area of ​​the original input image, while it is possible to display each output independently or rotated to 90, 180 from 270 degrees for creative landscape or portrait setups, with programmable EdID input.

In high resolutions, DVI signals degrade after 5 metros, so good Videoplex 4 allows connections of up to 20 m. since it has an active equalizer, capable of compensating for cable or signal losses even in Dual-link resolutions.

For your part, the VideoPlex driver 4000 allows you to individually configure video walls with four or more HDMI displays, without restrictions regarding their dispositions or sizes. Images can be freely scaled and positioned, including rotations up to 270º, as well as upscaling inputs and outputs with distortion-free images, which is very suitable for live camera inputs or animated content.

VPlex4000 features a main DisplayPort input 1.2 and two HDMI 1.4 that offer 4K resolution (4.096×2.160p) a 60ips o UHD 2.160p a 30ips, respectively, as well as dual Ethernet ports. Each output monitor can take its input from any area of ​​the input image, since all the cuts, cast, rotations and refresh rate conversions are managed by this controller.

These image areas can overlap to make it easier for any output to be repeated, as well as be configured to support any creative division of the original inputs, allowing support for many non-rectangular display layouts, even with non-uniform separations, as well as any combination of monitor orientations.

For example, High-quality downscaling allows viewing of a 4K video source on a single output, while other outputs can be cropped and scaled to create a nearly unlimited multi-screen canvas.
