UMAN Universal Media Access Networks will demonstrate “the world’s first real-time HD video network” at prolight+sound 2010.
Using zero-latency technology, the system is able to carry up to 64 HD streams (1080p60) within the network with a point-to-point latency of “well below 5 milliseconds”.
UMAN has aimed to provide a backbone solution where all types of media content can be transferred with a guaranteed latency and Quality-of-Service.
Juergen Scheuring, CEO, says: “The convergence provides system integrators an extremely flexible and powerful, though cost effective solution for installations, theaters and live events.”
The UMAN Network structure comprises UMAN routers, backbones, and the well known topology of IP-addressed devices and IP subnets.
To enable manufacturers to achieve a short time-to-market, UMAN has completed reference designs for audio nodes, remote control, various routers, and a ready-to-use single board design of a HDMI-to-UMAN Video node. All boards are available as samples now.
