bdlohmann,
Here is a product that we proudly make in the USA - the Tahoe and the new Tahoe-Veo:

This is a commercial grade component video distribution system. It features:
  • 24 inputs
  • Card based outputs, 16 per card, up to 112 outputs total
  • 10.1" preview monitor option
  • Dual Hot Swap Power - No wall warts in the entire system, including behind the TVs.
  • Passive and Active balun options
  • 6RU
  • Your most economical solution
We have multiple nationwide chains installing these systems.

And speaking of solutions, we also offer a free iPad app to control it as well as the companion audio matrix.

We also have lower cost 12x16 fixed size systems, but even at 8x20 or 10x25 as you requested, the Tahoe system is a great way to go and let's you expand as you need.

You can learn more here:

or call us on Monday at 619-258-2000
 

That looks pretty good.
JAP could run 22K before audio and control.

Is it in the same ballpark?
Every day is a good day.......some are just better than others!

Proud to say that my property is protected by a high speed wireless device!

I have always done a component video distribution matrix in the past because you could not beat the reliability but I'm assuming it's time to consider HDMI moving forward. My next project is about 20-25 displays and about 8-10 sources. I am considering JAP or perhaps an HD-BaseT matrix. But I ask, what are most people doing these days? What is solid? What should I avoid? What is the most cost effective?

Thanks for the sharing your experiences.

Hi Ben,

Thank you for your interest in the Just Add Power solution. I'd encourage you to call us on Monday and ask to be sent a demo kit (800-615-0206 x408). This will give you a no cost/obligation opportunity to use the Just Add Power system with your own screens and sources. After you invest a couple hours, you'll have the knowledge needed to understand why you would choose an intelligent IP based HDMI solution vs. a legacy component solution. At the same time, you'll get a better understanding of how our More-Play™ feature set surpasses the limitations in an HDBaseT 5-Play™ system.

Another thing you might want to do is bring your customer over to the Venue in Minneapolis and allow them to see an amazing Just Add Power installation with multiple video walls (http://www.thevenuempls.com/). Visiting a facility like the Venue should get their creative juices flowing, not to mention a willingness to invest in more screens and technology.

Good luck with your next project.

The only issue with ZeeVee, I've found, is that it won't modulate HDCP protected HDMI sources such as cable and sat boxes that have only HDMI output. Better make sure component is available.

I'm pretty sure they will pass HDCP copy protection now. Well, at least the website says so, for what it's worth.

I would love to see where ZeeVee will pass HDCP.

According to the website, video is Unencrypted HDMI only.

copied directly from their website.

"The ZvPro 800 series and HDbridge2840 will only accept unencrypted HDMI video, typically from a digital signage player, video camera or other self generated content. All of our products broadcast a clear QAM (unencrypted) signal over coax, therefore would break HDCP (HDMI’s encryption rules/requirements) if we tried to support encrypted video as an input. Our HDMI input most likely will not work with Apple Products (such as Macs), Blu-ray players, satellite boxes or cable boxes, as they are typically encrypted. "

JAP is good, so is Zeevee.
Another product not mentioned here -
www.provideoinstruments.com

I have used their product with both cable and Satellite boxes connected.

used a VeCOAX 4 input modulator recently with both xfinity X1 and bluray being sent over existing coax to over 20 displays. Worked beautifully.

Nice isn't it.

I used the VeCOAX 4 too, clients 15,000sq ft home, 15 TV's throughout, worked like a charm.
