Industry's First 100m single CAT X cable solution extending UHD 4Kp60 4:4:4 video with USB 2.0 and 3.1 Gen 1 demonstrated live at Icron booth C5838 from June 8th to 10th in Las Vegas
Burnaby, British Columbia June 7, 2016 Icron Technologies Corporation, a leader in USB and video extension technology and intoPIX, an innovative provider of video compression solutions, announced today Icron is demonstrating its new Maverick USB and UHD video extension platform that incorporates intoPIX's visually lossless TICO video compression technology. The Maverick platform is being showcased at Icron booth C5838 at InfoComm 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The Maverick platform features Icron's proprietary ExtremeUSB technology to extend USB 2.0 and USB 3.1 Gen 1 in combination with TICO UHD 4Kp60 4:4:4 video over a single CAT X cable up to 100 meters, or a single LC-LC fiber cable up to 200 meters.
The highly flexible OEM platform includes the ExtremeUSB suite of features such as transparent USB extension, true plug-and-play (no software drivers required) and compatibility with all major operating systems: Windows OS X and Linux and supports all USB 3.1 Gen 1, 2.0 and 1.1 devices. Additionally, Maverick includes intoPIX's award-winning TICO low latency visually lossless video compression technology and offers unparalleled performance for handling UHD 4K p60 with full 8- or 10-bit in 4:2:2 or 4:4:4 color spaces for accurate image clarity.
The ProAV industry is certainly going to benefit from this new and highly innovative extension platform with unparalleled performance in extending both UHD video and USB over a single cable, said Jean-Baptiste Lorent, Product & Marketing Manager at intoPIX. TICO provides a truly lossless compression, with no impact on latency and this represents a real breakthrough delivering cost-effective high resolution high frame rate video. We are very pleased to be a contributor to this game changing platform.
This is an industry first and quite an achievement; the TICO compression engine coupled with our ExtremeUSB technology pushes the boundaries of video and peripheral extension, said Tom Schultz, Product Manager at Icron. With visually lossless 4Kp60 4:4:4 video, USB 3.1 at 5 Gbps, and Gigabit Ethernet support, our Maverick extension platform creates an entirely new performance class of USB and video extension offering OEM customers unrivalled features and flexibility to suit their own solutions for specific markets.
A live demonstration will be featured at booth C5838 during InfoComm 2016.
