Video Wall Processor for Demanding Environments
The VW1608 is a modular 4K video wall processor that manages 16 input sources and 8 displays from a compact 4U chassis. It delivers stunning visual clarity, intelligent control and monitoring, high scalability, and rock-solid reliability - ideal for war rooms, control centers, auditoriums, and digital signage applications.
Precision Visual Performance
True-to-Life Visual Fidelity
The VW1608 delivers true 4K60 4:4:4, presenting every source with crystal-clear detail and accurate color. Its FPGA-based hardware architecture and FrameSync technology ensures tear-free, latency- free visuals even during rapid source switching.
Optimized for Any Display Environment
The processor upscales and optimizes content for any display type and size, ensuring every pixel delivers maximum clarity across video walls.
Maximize Screen Efficiency and See More at Once
Flexible Multi-Window Control for Higher Productivity
Optimizes screen space with flexible window layouts, including overlapping, picture-by-picture and picture-in-picture. The VW1608 supports up to four canvases on a video wall, each with independent sources, resolutions, and layouts - ideal for tailored, dynamic displays.
Pixel-Perfect Cropping for Focused Visuals
Video content can be cropped at the pixel level to highlight key details for a more engaging viewing experience.
Scalable Architecture that Grows with You
Modular Design for Effortless Expansion
The VW1608's 4U chassis features 4 input and 2 output board slots, supporting 16 sources and 8 displays, with a modular design for easy upgrades. The redundant power modules and a hot-swappable cooling fan module ensure maximum uptime.
Scalable to 24 Displays with Daisy-Chain Integration
The VW1608 offers exceptional scalability and failover via daisy-chaining, enabling up to three units to be linked for a total of 24 display outputs. This design protects your investment and adapts to projects of any size.
Seamless Control
Remote and Local Previews for Intuitive Control
The Web GUI enables real-time drag-and-drop layout control, while the local HDMI output provides live previews to verify adjustments - such as repositioning a feed or adding an overlay - before going live.
Seamless Integration for Streamlined Operations
Integration with third-party control platforms via RESTful API, Telnet, and RS-232, VW1608 delivers an intelligent and simplified control experience.
Mission-Critical Reliability
Redundant Architecture for Continuous Uptime
Deploy two VW1608 units to create a high-availability cluster, featuring real-time mirroring and automatic failover that keeps your video wall running even if the primary unit becomes unavailable. With built-in redundancy, hot-swappable modules, the VW1608 ensures continuous operation.
Auto-Backup Protection for Mission-Critical Stability
Automatic configuration backup and recovery protect against system or network failures, keeping mission-critical environments running smoothly 24/7.
Applications | War Room
For war room applications, the VW1608 enables multi-source visualization, flexible multi-window layouts, multi-canvas dashboards, and redundancy, enabling operators to monitor live feeds, highlight critical information, and maintain uninterrupted situational awareness.
