About Our Servers

Say hello to our new flagship server.

VYV’s previous server architecture has been used across the world on permanent shows and tours alike. Known for its ruggedness and reliability, it has been a challenge to come up with a new product that would pack the same punch in a smaller package.

Warranty & Support

• 3 years warranty for servers from date of purchase, hardware can be replaced on-site following DELL EMC terms & conditions.
• 1 year warranty for other parts from date of purchase, shipping is not included, cross-shipping available when stocks allows.

Software

• Additional update plans available.

Phone and email support

• Servers, other parts and software – 3 years email and phone support by VYV, available from Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm EST.

Design & Architecture

Sleek Form Factor

Occupying only a 2 RU space and managing from 8 (PHOTON) to 16 (XENON) HD outputs, our new servers will still deliver the content you need while having a much smaller footprint than their predecessors.

Standardized yet Configurable Solution

PHOTON, XENON and ALBION will from now on take advantage of the DELL EMC architecture. Moving to this new standardized design will greatly simplify maintenance and support operations. Even if our servers operate from a unified design, they will still feature customization options that will allow you to expand storage, change the quantity of video outputs or add media acquisition cards.
