Streamlining Yacht TV Systems with SC&T AV over IP
Leveraging SC&T AV over IP for Yacht TV Systems
In the world of luxury yachts, seamless entertainment delivery is paramount. Our recent collaboration with a system integration partner in the Netherlands exemplifies how SC&T AV over IP technology revolutionized TV distribution systems aboard multiple yachts.
- In each yacht project, approximately 20 SC&T AV over IP devices, including 5 to 10 transmitters and receivers, were deployed to transmit TV signals to front-end displays.
- Additionally, electronic chart display and information systems (ECDIS) data were seamlessly integrated into the AV over IP framework for synchronized access during live TV broadcasts.

Yacht Satellite TV Systems
Given that yachts often venture far from land, traditional cable and wireless TV options are impractical. Satellite TV systems become the best option as they offer global coverage, allowing passengers and crew to access a wide range of channels and programming.
Satellite TV systems are essential for obtaining real-time information, such as weather forecasts, navigation data, and news updates, ensuring safe and informed navigation.
Benefits of Using AVoIP Instead of Wireless Transmission
High-Quality and Stable Signals
AV over IP leverages wired network connections, ensuring stable signal transmission with minimal interference from other wireless devices. It offers low latency and minimal buffering, providing uninterrupted viewing experiences.
Enhanced Security
AV over IP, transmitted over physical network cables, mitigates the risks of signal tampering and unauthorized access, significantly improving security compared to wireless transmission methods.
User-Friendly Remote Control
AV over IP systems support remote control functionality, allowing users to switch channels seamlessly using their remote controls. This user-friendly feature requires minimal setup, preserving the convenience of remote control use.
Intuitive Setup
When integrating AVoIP systems, you can house equipment in cabinet drawers, with each layer of drawers clearly labeled with signal numbers. Users can easily recognize each unit with this design, which also simplifies configuration adjustments.
Yacht AV over IP Architecture
The yacht's satellite TV boxes are connected to an AV over IP transmitter, extending signals up to 100 meters via network cables to network switches. Similarly, all AV over IP receivers in the rooms are connected to network switches via network cables; this will be the fundamental AVoIP system setup.
Advantages of SC&T AVoIP for Yachts
Remote Control Convenience
SC&T AV over IP supports remote control operation; users can switch channels with a remote control or panel buttons on each unit. In emergencies, RS232 control signals can be sent from the control room to the receiver to control a specific channel displayed.
Near-End Output
In the yacht's control room, electronic chart display and information systems (ECDIS) are often set as a single channel. SC&T's AV over IP transmitters feature near-end output capabilities, which can send source signals to the control room's screen directly, eliminating the use of a splitter.
Client Feedback on Yacht AVoIP Solution
Why did you choose SC&T solution for your project?
There are a lot of products like this around, but this product gives the best value for the money it costs.
Do you set up the configuration following step-by-step instructions in our user manual? Do you find it difficult to follow them while setting up?
Because we have a big system where transmitters and receivers are a small part of it, we don't use the manuals. We put them on a tray and set the transmitter to the same channel ID as the tray number, this way it is easy for everyone to understand. To change this, we have our own system manager where you can manage your trays and choose which area watches which tray.
After applying our AV over IP solution, do you have any advice on our products or on our company?
Not really, the device gets used where it is made for.
