Yamaha Corp joins commitment to standardize the SDVoE protocol

Yamaha Corporation has announced that has joined the SDVoE Alliance. This consortium is formed by technology providers and its aim is to standardise the adoption of Ethernet for transporting signals.

Software Defined Video over Ethernet (SDVoE) is an AV over IP standard which utilizes 10 gigabit Ethernet for uncompressed, distance transmission of 4K video, audio and control data. Available globally, Yamaha’s SWX3220-16MT L3 switch and SWX2320-16MT L2 switch support the SDVoE standard, with two more models also available to the Japanese market.

By joining this not-for-profit consortium, Yamaha is demonstrating its commitment to the industry’s further development of reliable, cost-effective solutions for delivering high quality audio and video. We will continue to develop new solutions in response to industry demand, introducing more integrated, intuitive systems and total solutions which include both pro audio and networked audio products,” says Mr Nobuo Ikematsu, Senior General Manager of the Yamaha Corporation’s Information and Communication Division.

“We are pleased to welcome Yamaha to the protocol ecosystem,” says Justin Kennington, president of the SDVoE Alliance. “Yamaha’s extensive line of network switches will support the SDVoE standard for seamless and high-quality content distribution. We look forward to the company’s participation in the Alliance community.”
