One of the key advantages of the Gemini GVN system is its scalability. Whether you need to extend signals over short distances using CAT cables (up to 100m) or require long-distance transmission via fibre optics (up to 10km), the Gemini GVN has you covered. This flexibility makes it suitable for a range of applications, from small office set-ups to large-scale enterprise networks. The Lightware Gemini GVN is more than just an AV-over-IP extender – it’s a comprehensive solution that combines cutting-edge technology with a focus on sustainability. With its centralised control,

allowing for easy control of connected devices. Thanks to zero-frame latency, you can trust that your commands and inputs are executed in real time, a critical feature for interactive applications. Additionally, the Gemini GVN is designed with Power over Ethernet (PoE+) support, which simplifies the installation process by allowing both power and data to be delivered over a single Ethernet cable. This reduces the need for additional cabling and power outlets, making the set-up cleaner and more cost-effective. Operating on a 1Gb Ethernet network, the Gemini GVN is not only powerful but also energy-efficient, with low power consumption at around 10W. This translates to lower energy costs and a reduced environmental impact.
