NEW!  Another breakthrough in Price and Simplicity

VGA and HD video distribution over easy to use coax

The ZvBox® 170 is the newest member of ZeeVee’s line of HD encoder / modulators. Its steel chassis, fan cooling and rack mounting make it suitable for light commercial projects - but it’s also an excellent choice for sharing HD sources over existing coax in high-end homes, as it reduces or eliminates the need to cut holes in walls and run new wires.

And it’s a performer: its upgraded video processor delivers 60 frames per second, so tough-to-reproduce video like sporting events and scrolling text look remarkably smooth and clean.

Ideal Applications

  • Distribute HD channels in sports bars, corporate offices, and other light commercial spaces, over existing coax
  • Distribute one digital signage player to unlimited displays. Just tune it in - no boxes required at each TV
  • Share HD video sources in a home without pulling miles of cables or cutting into walls

Key Features

  • Simple front panel controls mean setup takes minutes
  • Fan cooled, rack-mountable chassis for worry-free installation
  • 720p output for true HD performance at a remarkably low price
  • 60 frames per second output means smoother motion video and cleaner text crawls
  • NEW Closed Captioning capability with the optional ZvCC module
