Latin America. Valens, the inventor and developer of HDBaseT technology for the AV market, has expanded its commitment to SyncPro's CloudOS platform. This partnership will accelerate HDBaseT AV integration and IT management by enabling remote deployment and monitoring of any HDBaseT device.
SyncPro's cloud platform enables IT teams and managed service providers (MSPs) to remotely configure, monitor, and maintain audio and video, unified collaboration, and digital signage products. With SyncPro's CloudOS support, HDBaseT equipment manufacturers can add advanced cloud-based features and remotely managed services to their product lines, which has gained importance due to accessibility issues during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Added capabilities include proactive monitoring capabilities, feature licensing, firmware updates, remote configuration, and more. This will allow system integrators and installers to deploy and service their systems at a lower cost and in less time.
SyncPro CEO Omer Brookstein emphasized that the increased CloudOS integration will help Valens customers refine their product roadmaps by monitoring feature usage and allow their system integrators to develop new managed services in the future.
Valens recently began using CloudOS to enable HDBaseT chipsets to connect to an integrated cloud, strengthening AV and IT convergence for manufacturers, integrators, and end users. Valens has now added new capabilities to CloudOS, including the option to monitor and manage its evaluation kits to better support HDBaseT product development.
Valens will offer firmware updates, provisioning services and advanced diagnostic capabilities, providing added value for product developers using the Valens Stello family of products. This starts with the VS3000, the first HDBaseT chipset that supports long-distance distribution of uncompressed 4K60 4:4:4 video (HDMI 2.0) via a single-category cable.
