WyreStorm delivers "lossless" 4K/60 video with HDR over 10GbE SDVoE to both residential and commercial customers with the flagship NetworkHD AV over IP 600 series.
Powering the 600 series is the standardised SDVoE hardware/software platform. The technology provides scalable delivery of "zero" latency switching of 4K/60Hz and HDR using RGB or YUV, together with audio, control, scaling, processing, encoding and encryption, all over 100Gb IP network. 4K video support reaches up to 4096x2160 60Hz at 4:4:4 8bit or 4:2:2 12bit HDR-10 over both HDMI and DisplayPort. Dolby Vision support should be added by the end of the year.
600 series encoders and decoders are fully HDCP 2.2 compliant, and feature auto-switch or software selectable input ports, with EDID capture and assign. Also included are Plethora Engine video scaling, re-timing and colour space conversion, in addition to powerful routing enabling stream breakaway for video, as well as audio and control.
The legal dispute between the two companies started back in October 2014, when Sonos sued Sound United over what it claimed was infringement of "at least four" patents. In December 2017 a jury ruled in favour of Sonos on 3 of the claims, and ordered Denon to pay $2 million in damages dating from the 2014 HEOS launch through December 2016.
Products receiving the official designation include network AVRs and stereo receivers. The Works with Sonos certification program certifies the integration meets the Sonos bar for experience, and that products connect seamlessly with the Sonos home audio system.
