Dynamic picture quality from Smart-e Smart-e has added dynamic EQ and Skew compensation, a clever and very effective video equalisation function, to its corporate AV solutions to enhance picture quality from remote devices. The increased desire to have video source equipment located at a distance from distribution switches has created a need for remote inputs. However, this creates problems as the picture quality will be effected by the different length of cable used to transmit signals. Smart-e’s dynamic EQ and Skew solution overcomes this problem, by automatically compensation for the differing cable lengths and possible skew errors that can occurs in CAT6 cable. The function has been added to Smart-e’s 2112 presentation and conferencing solution (SNX-2112 and SNX-2114). Settings are pre-programmed at installation by selecting the cable length between each user. When the system is used, the SLX-RX214 automatically adjusts the picture quality for the specific cable lengths under control of the SNX-2114. Dynamic EQ has also been added to smartCore, Smart-e’s range of large CAT* to CAT* non-blocking matrices which enable the sharing of AV resources building-wide. Using smartiP, the company’s software interface, the cable length adjustments for picture quality are set and stored so that when a video source is selected, adjustments are sent automatically to the receiver unit. The function is being provided as standard on selected equipment, and can be fitted retrospectively. For more information, contact Smart-e on tel: +44 (0) 1306 628264. CAT* refers to Category 5, 5e, 6, 7 and 8 structured cabling |
