Businesses need to be ready for future expansion: with incoming new multispeed devices, their wired network needs to expand its reach and scope to support speeds greater than 1 Gigabit.
That is why VIPER offer the speed that is needed by the connected device and provides the adequate speed.

Typical Use Cases
FLEXIBLE NETWORKING FOR 4K VIDEO AND AUDIO
4K KVM
Complete the system designs by incorporating USB peripherals (Mice, keyboards, cameras etc.) to the desired needs.
TRUE 4K MULTIVIEW
Multiview application with many video channels (as many simultaneously streams you need) without requiring a lot of extra memory is possible if the VC-2 HQ codec is chosen.
The Multiview compositing pipeline is executed in the compressed domain. This means that the compressed slices are read from the stream buffers and are combined to create a compressed stream for the chosen output resolution.
A single VC-2 HQ decoder instance is therefore enough, keeping the resource usage at an extremely low level.
Note: The slices in the above image are larger than in reality for the purpose of visualizing the slice boundaries.
4K VIDEO WALL WITH IMAGE SPLIT OVER MANY DISPLAYS
Ideal Video Codecs for VIPER & AV over IP
High-end image and video compression IP cores for professional applications. Both codecs are scalable and flexible to match the specific constraints of each application (latency, image format, performance).
They support various image resolution, frame rate and latency constraints. They are also suitable for very complex systems with very high image resolution (4K/8K or more) or ultra-low latency.
The Viper OEM solution is not only a state-of-the-art solution for transporting HDMI over IP, but also the fastest path for manufacturers to release a compelling product to their customer base.
The on-board SoC FPGA firmware and the CPU software can both be customised to match the desired needs.
Low Latency
The latency of an AV over IP system is typically measured from the HDMI input of the transmitter to the HDMI output of the receiver. In this example, the embedded features of Viper are being used. The measurement could be done with dedicated test equipment, but in the below example the embedded features of Viper are used to make the setup simpler.
The transmitter and receiver are connected to each other via the IP network made up of a 1G switch. The goal of this test setup is that it uses the receiver to generate the audio and video HDMI stream that feeds the transmitter input. The latency measurement is done within the receiver device. The device generates a specific audio/video pattern that it is able to detect when it comes back after the transport over IP.
The receiver calculates then the delay between the instant when the pattern is generated on the HDMI output, and the instant it is received in return over the Ethernet interface including the decoding and image processing in the receiver.
The measurements clearly show consistent very low latency around 5 ms or less in all tested use cases. The latency slightly increases with a lower bitrate. This is due to the network stream buffering method implemented at the decoder that guaran- tees smooth streaming. The buffer size represents a larger video stream duration at lower bitrate. It can also be noticed that the frame rate has a very small impact on the latency, for example, comparing 30 fps vs 60 fps. This is possible because all the video processing and encoding data path only uses very few lines of the video.
