Valens Semiconductor Supplies Chipsets for Barco ClickShare Kit

The new ClickShare USB-C Extension over CAT kit serves as a dedicated wired companion to Barco’s existing wireless hubs. By leveraging Valens’ chipsets, the system ensures low-latency connectivity, which is increasingly required for complex audiovisual installations where wireless signals may face interference or range limitations. Gili Friedman, head of cross-industry business at Valens, noted that the integration addresses the rising demand for high-performance, reliable infrastructure in professional AV settings. This development allows users to maintain the familiar ClickShare interface while gaining the stability of uncompressed video delivery over standard cabling. The collaboration highlights a shift in meeting room design, where vendors are combining wireless convenience with the robust data throughput of wired HDBaseT standards to support larger or more technically demanding spaces.
