BZBGEAR BG-IPGEAR-PRO PRODUCT MANUAL
Introduction
The BG-IPGEAR-PRO system is an HDMI 2.0 over IP multicast system with video wall &
PoE support that boosts up your video/audio transmission distances up to 120m(396ft) in
stunning UHD 4K@60. With cost effective ethernet cables, users can easily extend a UHD
video from source devices such as a Blu-ray player, PS5, PC, to a distant display.
Additionally, the BG-IPGEAR-PRO system is HDCP compliant and supports IR and RS-232
pass-through.
The BG-IPGEAR-PRO-C smart controller for the BG-IPGEAR-PRO system provides
continuous system monitoring, self-recovery, along with real-time email event notifications
and alerts. With a high degree of expandability, a single BG-IPGEAR-PRO-C can manage
up to 1024 transmitters and an unlimited number of receivers at once.
The intuitive web-based GUI enables users to drag and drop any source to any display,
build custom video walls, and create custom on-screen-display (OSD) messages. Users can
also access and manage the system by using the free iOS, Android, Windows, and MAC
applications.
Note: A supported gigabit network switch is required for the BG-IPGEAR-PRO system. The
system is capable of Point-to-Point, Point-to-Many, and Multicasting. Network switches
must support IGMP snooping and jumbo frame/large packet transfer. Multicasting requires
a managed gigabit network switch with 802.1Q VLAN functionality to allow for multiple
video sources.
