PlexusAV adds 25Gb P-AVN-6-S to complete AV-over-IP line
PlexusAV will launch its new flagship P-AVN-6-S transceiver at InfoComm 2026, a 25Gb uncompressed IPMX and SMPTE ST 2110 solution with native 12G-SDI I/O. This device is designed to bridge broadcast and ProAV workflows across a single open-standard network, enabling high-performance hybrid SDI/IP deployments. The launch completes PlexusAV's AV-over-IP portfolio, expanding its ecosystem into environments requiring uncompromised quality, precision, and interoperability.
Key Takeaways
- The P-AVN-6-S supports uncompressed IPMX and SMPTE ST 2110 networks up to 4K60 at about 18 Gbps.
- Native 12G-SDI input and output is paired with HDMI loop out, plus PTP-to-Genlock conversion for ±12 pixel phase accuracy.
- Dual SFP28 interfaces support 10GbE and 25GbE, while ST 2022-7 hitless redundancy is built in across primary and secondary paths.
- PlexusAV also lists JPEG-XS support over 1GbE, Dante and AES67 audio transport, and up to 8 audio channels.
- The product will be shown at InfoComm 2026 Booth C10301 alongside the P-AVN-4 Transceiver, P-AVN-4E encoder, P-AVN-4D decoder, and AIMS Alliance interoperability demos.
Why It Matters
The P-AVN-6-S gives PlexusAV a single box that ties broadcast-style 12G-SDI workflows to open-standard IPMX and SMPTE ST 2110 networks, with timing and redundancy features aimed at mission-critical production. That matters because PlexusAV is positioning its portfolio across compressed and uncompressed workflows, while also showing interoperability with AIMS Alliance and products such as Dante and AES67 in the same ecosystem. The next signal to watch is whether PlexusAV’s InfoComm demo shows the P-AVN-6-S working across 1GbE, 10GbE, and 25GbE network paths as described.
