Blustream to Debut 14 New and Updated Products at CEDIA Expo 2026
Blustream showcases integrated AV distribution with full family of solutions, including live IP300 and ACM1000 demonstrations, an exclusive PROSync 4K/120 preview, and the launch of BLUNet platform.
DENVER, Colo. (August 2026) — Blustream is coming to CEDIA Expo 2026 with a simple message: We believe the dealer should remain in control of the system they design, the products they choose, and ultimately the experience they deliver to their customer.
At Booth #3211, Blustream will showcase its largest collection of new products and technology ever presented at a U.S. trade show. Those products include the flagship IP300 AV-over-IP platform, the new ACM1000 Advanced Control Module, an exclusive live preview of the next-generation PROSync 4K/120 AV-over-IP platform, and the introduction of BLUNet, an entirely new network management category for Blustream.
But CEDIA Expo is about more than launching products.
The residential integration market is changing quickly. Systems are becoming more connected, networks are becoming more important, and dealers are being asked to integrate more technologies than ever before. At the same time, consolidation throughout the industry continues to push integrators toward increasingly closed ecosystems.
Blustream is taking a different approach.
Our job is not to tell a dealer what control system, loudspeaker, amplifier, network platform, or other technology they need to use. Our job is to build products and partnerships that give them more options and make those products work together.
Open Integration, Live on the Show Floor
That philosophy will be on full display at CEDIA Expo with three live partner integrations featuring ELAN, AVA, Sonance, and Blaze Audio.
ELAN will provide live control of a Blustream AV-over-IP system, demonstrating how dealers can integrate Blustream video distribution directly into an established residential control environment.
AVA will control Blustream’s MV41 4×1 HDMI multiview switcher, giving dealers the ability to combine up to four HDMI sources onto a single display using customizable layouts including PIP, PBP, dual, triple, and quad views. The MV41 supports 4K UHD 60Hz 4:4:4 video, seamless switching, HDMI loop-through, downscaling, and HDR-to-SDR conversion.
Sonance, through its Blaze Audio brand, will demonstrate real-world residential installation applications of Dante using Blustream’s Dante onboarding products, showcasing how integrators can seamlessly deploy and manage Dante in everyday systems in partnership with Sonance’s Blaze Audio product family.
“Open integration isn’t about putting a bunch of logos on a compatibility page,” says Eric Randt, General Manager, Blustream US. “It’s about giving dealers options. They know their customers, they know their projects, and they know the products they trust. Our responsibility is to give them tools that make those products work together, not create roadblocks that force them further into one ecosystem. Everything we are bringing to CEDIA Expo this year comes back to that idea.”
IP300 and ACM1000: Building on a Proven AV-over-IP Platform
At the center of the booth will be Blustream’s IP300 series, its flagship multicast AV-over-IP platform delivering virtually latency-free, one-frame 4K 18Gbps HDMI distribution across a standard 1Gb managed network.
The scalable platform distributes video, audio, bidirectional IR, RS-232, and USB/KVM over standard copper infrastructure, with SFP connectivity available for longer fiber runs. Interoperability with Blustream’s Dante-enabled IP350 products gives dealers another layer of flexibility when projects require networked audio alongside video distribution.
Joining IP300 is the ACM1000 Advanced Control Module, released earlier this year.
ACM1000 takes the familiar Blustream AV-over-IP management experience and moves it forward with new hardware, a quad-core processor, enhanced system management, and significantly expanded automation capabilities.
Dealers retain one-touch configuration and a drag-and-drop interface with video preview while gaining 24/7 scheduling, enhanced source and display control, simultaneous switching, advanced presets, receiver grouping, and configurable macros triggered by schedules, GPIO, or API commands.
The result is more than an AV-over-IP configuration tool. ACM1000 gives dealers a platform to manage, automate, troubleshoot, and control increasingly complex systems.
A First Look at What’s Next: PROSync
CEDIA Expo attendees will also get an exclusive first look at PROSync, Blustream’s next-generation AV-over-IP platform currently in development.
PROSync is being designed around where residential video is heading, supporting 4K video at 120Hz and 8K video across a standard 1Gb network. The roadmap also includes multiview capabilities, routed USB, and Ethernet, bringing AV and data distribution together on a common platform.
CEDIA Expo will be the first opportunity for U.S. dealers to see PROSync operating live and get an early look at the direction Blustream is taking its AV-over-IP technology.
Introducing BLUNet
Blustream will also introduce BLUNet, a new product category focused on network management.
The network has become the backbone of the modern residential system. AV distribution, control, audio, remote management, and countless connected devices all depend on it, yet dealers are often forced to manage those technologies through separate platforms.
BLUNet represents Blustream’s first step toward bringing greater visibility and management of that infrastructure into the wider Blustream ecosystem.
The goal is straightforward: make systems easier to deploy, easier to understand, and ultimately easier for dealers to support after the installation is complete.
Additional BLUNet product and availability information will be announced during CEDIA Expo.
Innovation That Solves Dealer Problems
Beyond the headline products, Blustream will showcase one of the broadest portfolios it has ever brought to CEDIA Expo, including new intelligent power-management products, network amplifiers, Dante solutions, multiview products, and signal-management tools.
Blustream’s expanding smart-power portfolio is a good example of the company’s approach to product development.
Today’s rack looks dramatically different than it did even a few years ago. Large components have increasingly been replaced by compact devices, PoE-powered products, USB-powered accessories, and equipment running from a collection of low-voltage wall-wart power supplies.
Blustream believes the infrastructure around those products needs to evolve too.
Its intelligent power-management solutions give dealers the ability to consolidate power, monitor connected equipment, schedule and sequence devices, remotely cycle individual products, and in certain applications automatically recover an unresponsive device.
Combined with cloud-based monitoring through Blustream’s integration with the Xyte Device Cloud, these products aren’t simply about creating a cleaner rack. They are about helping dealers diagnose problems faster, reduce unnecessary truck rolls, and deliver a better long-term service experience to their customers.
New four- and eight-channel network matrix amplifiers will expand Blustream’s multi-zone audio offering, while new Dante converters provide practical ways to move between traditional analog audio and Dante/AES67 networks.
The common thread across all of it is simple: Build products that solve real problems for integrators.
Blustream US Continues to Invest
CEDIA Expo 2026 also represents another major step in Blustream’s investment in the United States and specifically, the residential integration channel.
Since establishing Blustream US Inc., the company has continued building its operation from Mendota Heights, Minnesota, expanding its U.S. team and developing a nationwide network of sales representatives, distribution partners, and technical resources.
“We aren’t coming to CEDIA Expo simply because it’s another trade show on the calendar,” states Randt. “We are here because we believe in this channel and the dealers who built it. We’ve invested in people, inventory, partnerships, support, and new technology because we intend to be here for the long haul. CEDIA Expo is an opportunity for us to show the industry just how much Blustream has changed, how much we have invested, and where we are going next.”
That growing U.S. infrastructure is designed to give dealers something equally important to the products themselves: Access to people who can help.
From system design and product selection through deployment, troubleshooting, and long-term support, Blustream US is continuing to build a local organization backed by the resources and engineering capabilities of the global Blustream team.
