Lightware UBEX 10G AV-over-IP technology sets a new stand...

Lightware, a global leader in signal management, has renewed the spotlight on its flagship UBEX AV-over-IP platform, highlighting the growing demand for 10G solutions in live events and rental markets.

Many organizations still rely on 1G networks, which are sufficient for smaller-scale applications such as classrooms and corporate meeting rooms. For these scenarios, Lightware's Gemini GVN platform ensures cost-effective, reliable performance. When it comes to larger-scale live productions, esports and rental applications, switching to the powerful UBEX 10G platform is essential for ensuring high-quality image and audio content.

While 1G systems remain a smart choice for everyday AV applications, UBEX is the ultimate tool in situations where every pixel and every frame counts, says Gergely Vida, CEO at Lightware. With its 10G capabilities, UBEX delivers uncompromising performance for the most demanding live events and rental applications.

Lightware's award-winning UBEX platform sets the benchmark for 10G AV-over-IP solutions, capable of managing uncompressed 4K60 4:4:4 signals for exceptional video quality, with ultra-low latency that guarantees a lag-free experience. Unlike traditional AV-over-IP systems that require separate transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) units, UBEX combines both roles into a single device, and it can even be operated in transceiver (TRX) mode. This flexibility offers simplified logistics and faster deployment as well as streamlined scalability, making it ideal for live events where adaptability and a quick turnaround are vital.

Multiview mode lets users display 4 video sources on a single screen by using the first output of the device, these can be arranged in flexible layouts with flawless scaling. In the meantime, the second output can still handle 1 individual stream, or copy the same Multiview layout of the first output. This is ideal for control rooms, live events, broadcast monitoring, video walls, and collaborative spaces, where operators need to see several feeds simultaneously without latency or quality loss.

With Dolby Atmos support as standard, UBEX ensures crystal-clear audio signals reach their destination exactly as intended and without compression, latency or dropouts. UBEX also supports both copper and optical fibre connectivity, giving system designers and integrators the flexibility of short or long-distance AV-over-IP signal transmission.

Engineered for reliability, UBEX is a trusted choice for live events where downtime is not an option. Two parallel 10G ethernet links to transport video and data streams provide the bandwidth needed for transmission of ultra-high-resolution signals. Ensuring robust redundancy, the system can be pre-programmed to handle cable errors, different logic rules can be set to lower the bandwidth needs in such cases, so a reduced quality signal can still reach the receiver side over one remaining cable. For secure installations, UBEX is also available in a TEMPEST SDIP-27 Level B certified version, meeting strict NATO standards and making it ideal for defense and intelligence projects where high levels of reliability are critical.

A separate rental version of the UBEX is also available, specifically designed for live event use. Its enhanced build quality has been designed to cope with the stresses of frequent transport, handling and setup, featuring tougher connectors, more durable enclosures and stronger rigging points.

Lightware's UBEX has been used to deliver immersive experiences across the live events industry. Lightroom, London's new exhibition space, used UBEX's 4k capabilities and 10G network compatibility to create an uninterrupted 360-degree canvas of artist David Hockney's work. Similarly, Mirror Mirror in Adelaide, South Australia, used Lightware's UBEX AV-over-IP solution to transport signals from a central control room to six exhibition zones. UBEX has changed the game in large-scale signal delivery for our bigger projects, says Leko Novakovic, Managing Director of Novatech Creative Event Technology. We had confidence that UBEX was the best choice for 100% reliable and versatile delivery of critical program and control signals for a long-running activation.

At Lightware, we understand that every AV project has unique needs, which is why we offer a full range of solutions from 1G to 10G, says Vida. Whether it's a small-scale installation needing a reliable 1G connection or a large-scale event requiring the power of 10G, our technology ensures the best possible performance, scalability, and flexibility for any environment.
