SDVoE Certification
SDVoE (Software Defined Video over Ethernet) is a 2017 topology that is competing with traditional matrix video switching and HDBaseT. Instead of switching video routes based on hardware transmitters and receivers, SDVoE uses software to encode the video stream over a standard 10G ethernet network using the API to configure and control the streams.
This certification is an introduction to SDVoE.
