JPRO, a professional audio distribution and AV solutions company, has partnered with digital video technology company Key Digital.

Key Digital provides digital signal management solutions for high-end video and control systems, including Enterprise AV over IP. The company manufactures its own lines of video switchers, extenders, cables, amplifiers, boosters, processors, scalers and interface adapters as well as the award-winning Compass Control Professional control system.

JPRO director Bruce Gray says that the most important thing for his company was to partner with a reliable company that produces high-end video.

“Key Digital meets and exceeds this by designing and manufacturing superior quality, leading-edge solutions. We are quite excited to partner with Key Digital and represent its outstanding line of products in the New Zealand market.”

Enterprise AV over IP solutions create an expandable HDMI over IP system that can be scaled infinitely to fit any installation.

Mike Tsinberg, a Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) Fellow and holder of over 40 patents, is Chair of numerous professional committees dedicated to digital video. He is the leader of Key Digital and, according to Bruce, is one of the major deciding factors in the joint venture.

JPRO sales director Paul Edlin says the collaboration will be very beneficial in terms of opening up new business opportunities.

“JPRO understands the importance of education and training for integrator success and as such we will provide ongoing training including the Key Digital control solutions certification.”

Key Digital is now available to purchase in New Zealand. Product has already been put to the test in the NZ market and there is demo stock available. Please contact a JPRO account manager should you wish to demo some of the equipment.
