What does AV over IP mean?

AV over IP stands for Audio-Visual over Internet Protocol, which means audio and visual signals are sent over a network via standard Ethernet cables and switches. This method replaces older, more traditional AV methods like HDMI or SDI cables, which might require more dedicated infrastructure, limited cable lengths, and less flexibility in routing signals across multiple locations or devices. Due to a faster transmission time for data, AV over IP has many use cases.

Some examples by industry include:

Corporate: meeting room integration with seamless video conferencing and screen sharing
Healthcare: remote consultation and broadcasting updates to waiting rooms
Education: video distribution for lectures, events, or announcements
Entertainment: live event broadcasting to screens throughout a venue

Interested in transforming your AV setup or ready to convert? Consult with us to find the best setup for your needs.

What are AV over IP standards?

AV over IP standards define the protocols and formats used to transmit audio and video signals over IP networks. These standards ensure compatibility, performance, and reliability across different devices and manufacturers.

Common AV over IP standards include:

IPMX (Internet Protocol Media Experience)
H.264 / H.265 (HEVC)
NDI (Network Device Interface)

The right setup starts with the right standards. With Princeton Pro AV, you get expertly designed AV over IP solutions built to meet today’s demands and scale for tomorrow’s needs. Explore our list of products and services today.

What are the advantages of AV over IP?

Having an AV over IP setup in your system has many key benefits:

Scalability – Easily add more sources and displays without major rewiring
Flexibility – Route any source to any display across the network
Longer Distance – Transmit signals over greater distances than HDMI/SDI
Centralized Control – Manage and control AV systems from a single interface
High Quality – Supports 4K, HDR, and even uncompressed video formats
Future-Proofing – Easier to upgrade and adapt to new technologies

How can I implement AV over IP in my home/business?

To implement AV over IP in your home or business requires a few considerations, from your network speed and number of devices to the type of video quality and compatible gear you require.
 Once you’ve selected the right products and cables, begin by connecting them to your network using Ethernet cables. Next, use a network switch to manage signal routing, and finally, set up a software interface or control system to easily manage and operate your new AV over IP system.

Let us take care of the setup and deployment, so you can focus on what matters most—supporting your team’s success.
Contact us today for all of your specific set up details and requirements.

What is the difference between AV over IP and HDBaseT?

The main difference between AV over IP and HDBaseT is that AV over IP provides broad, scalable signal distribution, whereas HDBaseT is a simpler, direct cable solution ideal for short, fixed AV links.

AV over IP uses standard IP network, Ethernet, to send video and audio signals, which means it is highly scalable and flexible, able to multiple devices.
HDBaseT transmits signals over a single Cat5e/6 cable, which makes it limited to shorter distances up to 100 meters.

What is the best AV over IP encoder and decoder?

The best AV over IP encoder and decoder depends on your needs, such as the video resolution you require (HD or 4K), the number of devices you want to connect, the distance the signals need to travel, or whether you need low latency for real-time content. Your network capacity is another key factor to decide the best encoder and decoder for you.

To get started, you can browse trusted brands on our website that offer encoders and decoders to match your budget.
