The SDVoE Alliance, a nonprofit consortium of technology providers collaborating to standardize the adoption of Ethernet to transport AV signals in professional AV environments, announces that Kramer, a global leader in audiovisual experiences and engagement technology, has joined the SDVoE Alliance as a contributing member. Kramer’s membership follows its acquisition of ZeeVee, one of the founding members of the SDVoE Alliance. This strategic step highlights Kramer’s ongoing investment in AV-over-IP and its commitment to shaping the future of networked AV.
As a contributing member, Kramer will collaborate with the SDVoE Alliance and its partners to advance the development of high-performance, interoperable AV solutions built on SDVoE standards. With its headquarters in Tel Aviv, Israel and offices across the globe, Kramer designs, manufactures and distributes innovative network-based devices and networking cables for professional video-over-IP (VoIP) and audio-over-IP (AoIP) applications. Kramer’s solutions span everything from AV signal management to advanced cloud-based communication, collaboration and control platforms. Their mission is to create immersive, inclusive and intuitive AV experiences that bring people closer by bridging physical and digital gaps in an increasingly hybrid world.
“Joining the SDVoE Alliance is an important step in Kramer’s ongoing mission to create frictionless, next-generation AV solutions,” said Dorit Botter, executive vice president of product and technology for Kramer. “As the AV industry continues its evolution toward standardized Ethernet-based infrastructure, we’re excited to collaborate with the Alliance to help define the future of networked AV.”
“Kramer’s decision to join the SDVoE Alliance is a strong endorsement of our mission and the accelerating momentum of Ethernet-based AV,” said Stephane Tremblay, president of the SDVoE Alliance. “Their global footprint and track record of innovation in AV-over-IP make them an outstanding addition to our community. We’re excited to welcome Kramer and look forward to the innovation they’ll bring as we grow together.”
Kramer’s membership reflects the growing interest in the SDVoE platform, which is now embraced by member companies worldwide. The SDVoE Alliance provides a comprehensive hardware and software platform for AV extension, switching, video walls, multiview processing and KVM. With a unified system architecture, SDVoE technology simplifies deployment while enabling powerful, flexible, cost-effective AV applications across verticals such as education, enterprise, healthcare, government and live events.
