BZBGEAR has announced a suite of new products at InfoComm 2026, including the XLink-ONE AV-over-IP distribution system, AI-powered conferencing solutions, and esports-focused innovations. The company is positioning these launches as a significant leap forward for the Pro AV industry, addressing long-standing challenges in latency, bandwidth, and user experience.
The centerpiece of the announcement is XLink-ONE, a proprietary codec-based system that distributes HDMI 2.1 signals up to 48Gbps over standard 1 Gigabit Ethernet. This enables 4K@120Hz and 8K@60Hz transmission without requiring expensive 10G network infrastructure. According to BZBGEAR, end-to-end latency remains under one frame, and all streams are secured with AES 256 encryption. The platform supports USB-over-IP, multi-stream distribution, video walls, picture-in-picture, integrated scaling, and frame-accurate AV sync. XLink-ONE launches as a family of six products, with select SKUs available for immediate shipping from the show floor.
In the conferencing category, BZBGEAR introduced the BG-Cyclops-Pro, an all-in-one 4K UHD video bar with a dual-lens system featuring a 120° ultra-wide panoramic lens and a 12x optical zoom lens. AI capabilities include auto-framing, speaker tracking, and Smart Gallery, which uses sound localization and facial recognition to dynamically arrange individual participants for equitable remote presence. The device includes a six-element beamforming microphone array with full Audio 3A processing (acoustic echo cancellation, automatic gain control, and noise suppression) and a full-range speaker. It supports BYOM/BYOD workflows with built-in Wi-Fi, wireless screen projection, USB 3.0, HDMI, and RJ45 connectivity. The Cyclops-Pro can be mounted on a table, wall, or display.
The BG-4K-VP1616 expands BZBGEAR's award-winning VP Series to a 16x16 seamless 4K matrix switcher that also functions as a video wall processor and multiviewer. It supports up to seven distinct wall modes per monitor and can display up to 16 sources on a single output with multiple split-display layouts. The unit handles 4K@60Hz 4:4:4, HDCP 2.2, Dolby and DTS 5.1 audio, and includes independent analog audio extraction, EDID management, and seamless scaling. Control options include front panel, IR remote, RS-232, IP, web GUI, and the free BG-Switch-Control app.
For live production, the BG-Commander-UltraX combines a production switcher, PTZ joystick controller, capture device, and recorder into one portable unit. It accepts up to 4K input across four HDMI channels, features dual HDMI outputs, a USB-C virtual camera output for direct streaming to platforms like Zoom and OBS, and direct-to-USB/SD recording. Production controls include a built-in 4D PTZ joystick, sliding T-bar, precision knobs, and a 7-inch LCD touchscreen. It supports ONVIF 2.8 and VISCA-over-IP for PTZ control with tally light integration, and offers chroma key, picture-in-picture, logo overlay, and multiple transition effects.
BZBGEAR is also highlighting its investment in HDMI 2.1 and 4K120 workflows, particularly for the growing esports venue market. The company notes that esports requires ultra-low latency, high-refresh-rate signal handling, dense multi-source switching, large spectator video walls, and reliable streaming output, all of which its new products address. At InfoComm, BZBGEAR will showcase esports-specific applications of XLink-ONE, the VP Series, and the Commander UltraX.
Eugene Bocharov, CEO of BZBGEAR, stated: "AV-over-IP has been part of our DNA from day one, but the category has been coasting on incremental updates for years — and our customers deserve better than incremental. 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."
InfoComm 2026 runs from June 13-19 at the Las Vegas Convention Center, with exhibits from June 17-19. BZBGEAR will be at booth N8051. A free pass is available with VIP code BZB771. For more information, visit bzbgear.com.
