Taurus TPN users can experience the power of 4K resolution and stunning visuals, enabling organisations to create an ecosystem of networked devices and screens from a single source. Content can be sent anywhere, enabling organisations to unlock a more versatile meeting room experience and meet the needs of today’s hybrid environments.

Gemini GVN: High-Performance Matrix Switching over IP
For larger and more complex AV installations, the Lightware Gemini GVN is a powerful IP-based matrix switching solution. Operating on a 1G Ethernet network, the GEMINI GVN boasts low power consumption (~10W), reducing energy costs and environmental impact, all while being able to handle 4K60 4:4:4. Equipped with Lightware's Advanced EDID Management system, the Gemini GVN ensures that the decoders are capable of scaling HDMI 2.0 video signals up to a maximum resolution of 4K60 either on CAT (up to 100 meters) or on fibre optics (up to 10 kms) with HDR, HDR+, and Dolby Vision support. Built for mission-critical environments such as control rooms, broadcast centres and high-end corporate use cases, it offers the performance, reliability and ultra-low latency required by the most demanding organisations.

Additional market-leading features include the provision of dual Ethernet interfaces, 4K HDR support for pristine video quality and advanced management through Lightware’s Lightware Device Controller. By offering seamless integration with third-party control systems, Gemini GVN allows AV integrators to build large, distributed systems over an IP network, providing the performance of a traditional matrix switch with the flexibility and scalability of IP architectures.
