BZBGEAR has announced a series of product launches at InfoComm 2026, headlined by the XLink-ONE AV-over-IP system, which the company says reimagines video distribution by enabling 4K120 and 8K60 transmission over standard 1 Gigabit Ethernet. According to a press release, the system uses a proprietary codec to achieve sub-frame latency, AES 256 encryption, and native support for USB-over-IP, multi-stream distribution, and video walls. The XLink-ONE family includes six products, with select models shipping from the show floor and others rolling out through the year.
The company also expanded its VP Series with the BG-4K-VP1616, a 16x16 seamless 4K matrix switcher that also functions as a video wall processor and multiviewer. It supports 4K@60Hz 4:4:4, HDCP 2.2, and Dolby/DTS 5.1 audio, with control via front panel, IR, RS-232, IP, web GUI, or the BG-Switch-Control app. This addresses the growing need for flexible, high-density signal management in commercial AV installations.
In the conferencing category, BZBGEAR introduced the BG-Cyclops-Pro, a 4K UHD video bar with a dual-lens system featuring a 120° panoramic lens and a 12x optical zoom. AI-driven features include auto-framing, speaker tracking, and Smart Gallery, which uses sound localization and facial recognition to extract individual participants. The device includes a six-element microphone array with audio processing and supports BYOM/BYOD workflows with built-in Wi-Fi, wireless screen projection, and multiple connectivity options.
For live production, the BG-Commander-UltraX integrates a 4-channel HDMI production switcher, PTZ joystick controller, capture device, and recorder into a single portable unit. It accepts up to 4K input, offers dual HDMI outputs, a USB-C virtual camera output, and direct recording to USB/SD. PTZ control over ONVIF 2.8 and VISCA-over-IP is included, along with chroma key and picture-in-picture effects. The unit targets mobile production crews, houses of worship, and corporate AV teams.
BZBGEAR highlighted its investment in HDMI 2.1 and native 4K120 workflows, noting that much of the industry still treats 4K as the ceiling. The company also emphasized its focus on esports venues, which require ultra-low latency, high-refresh-rate signal handling, and multi-source switching. Products like XLink-ONE, the VP Series, and the Commander UltraX are positioned to address these needs.
“AV-over-IP has been part of our DNA from day one, but the category has been coasting on incremental updates for years,” said Eugene Bocharov, CEO of BZBGEAR, in the release. “XLink-ONE is the breakthrough we’ve been building toward: true HDMI 2.1, 4K120 performance over the network they already have, with no compromise on latency or security.”
BZBGEAR will showcase these innovations at InfoComm 2026, held June 13–19 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, booth N8051. A VIP code (BZB771) is available for complimentary show tickets. More information is available at bzbgear.com.
