We design and manufacture signal monitoring and machine control systems for both the broadcast and audio/video post-production industries. Our products include signal monitoring software, tally systems, control panels, machine control interface vnodes, signal monitoring vnodes, interface products for multiple vendor control, modular frames and cards. All Videoframe products have SNMP agents and IP based control systems. The VTECS™ 5 & VTECS™ 2 Control Panels offer efficient, intelligent control of other vendor frame sync, converter, proc. amp and interface equipment. Customers considering the purchase of AJA's FS2 can use either control panel to control their FS2 - the panel has built-in control capability. FS2 owners can control multiple FS2 units and simultaneously control their FS1's as well. See Product News page as well as the VTECS 2 and VTECS 5 pages for additional information about the control panels. The VTECS™ 5 & VTECS™ 2 Control Panels are knob-per-function panels that operate with a minimum number of keystrokes which makes both ideal for on-air control. Connection from the control panel is made by either a direct connection for vendors who have implemented the Videoframe VTECS™ protocol in their equipment, or by use of a Videoframe Interface VNODE for protocol translation for products that use other protocols over Ethernet, RS-232, RS-422 or GPI links. Although some vendors introduced products with PoE Technology for the first time at NAB 2011 - Videoframe received the TV Technology Magazine STAR Award for our innovative use of Power over Ethernet Technology during NAB 2009. We have a complete line of products that use PoE Technology. Videoframe CP Control Panels come with film relegendable broadcast quality pushbuttons for machine control and router master control, and are available in both PoE (Power over Ethernet) and non-PoE models. Each of our LCD Control Panels come with programmable switches and Power over Ethernet technology. All Videoframe Control Panels control other vendors equipment with the use of an Interface VNODE™. The award winning, ever popular GPI VNODE™ now uses PoE Power over Ethernet Technology and is available in several different configurations including the FlexGPI 12 VNODE with 12 two pin GPI ports assignable as either inputs or outputs, and our GPI 12/12 with 12 TTL inputs and 12 relay outputs, along with the multiple input/output 16/16 (one 37 PinD) and 32/32 (two 37 PinD) VNODEs. In an economy that requires careful spending and cautious growth, Power over Ethernet technology makes great sense. Using the communications link to supply power means you do not have to use external power supplies and power cords. Power over Ethernet technology is not just about creating a smaller carbon footprint. Videoframe is making more cost-effective products that are smaller, have fewer parts, so that we can pass the savings on to you - the customer. At Videoframe we make it easy for you to do business with us. You can buy Videoframe products directly from us.
