The HDBaseT Alliance, the Professional AV industry’s largest interoperable ecosystem, has announced that it is marking 15 years of HDBaseT technology and its lasting impact on the global AV landscape at Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) 2026 in Barcelona.
From reshaping system design to simplifying deployment and elevating user experience, HDBaseT has continually evolved since its inception. At ISE 2026, the Alliance invites attendees to join the celebration at Booth 2M500, entering what it calls “An HDBaseT World”, a live showcase of interoperability, innovation, and collaboration.
Founded by LG Electronics, Samsung Electronics, Sony Pictures Entertainment, and Valens Semiconductor, HDBaseT introduced uncompressed, long-distance, plug-and-play connectivity over a single Category cable. Today, it underpins a worldwide ecosystem of manufacturers, certified installers, and integrators working across video conferencing, education, immersive experiences, home entertainment, live events, and digital signage.
At this year’s show, Valens Semiconductor, inventor of HDBaseT technology and a co-founder of the Alliance, will present live demonstrations highlighting next-generation multimedia signal distribution solutions designed to simplify increasingly complex AV system architectures.
“The HDBaseT Alliance is proud to have been the driving force behind the industry’s evolution for 15 years and counting,” said HDBaseT Alliance President Effi Goldstein. “At ISE 2026, I am eagerly anticipating the launch of our members’ innovative products. By leveraging HDBaseT technology, our members provide integrators and installers with interoperable, reliable building blocks they can trust as expectations rise for performance, simplicity, and user experience.”
Throughout the show, the HDBaseT Alliance booth will host a range of activities and experiences, including a Power Wall display featuring 70 new products and solutions from more than 30 Alliance members, illustrating the breadth of HDBaseT across multiple verticals. Visitors can also pick up the 2026 edition of the HDBaseT World Showcase booklet at the booth.
To commemorate the milestone, the Alliance will host its 15th Anniversary Happy Hour on February 4 at 4:30 PM CET, co-hosted by rAVe [PUBS]. Registration is available online.
In addition, HDBaseT Extended, the Alliance’s interview series hosted by Commercial Integrator Editor-in-Chief Dan Ferrisi, will bring together leading Pro AV experts to discuss the current state and future direction of the industry.
ISE 2026 attendees are invited to visit the HDBaseT Alliance at Booth 2M500 to celebrate 15 years of innovation and to experience firsthand how HDBaseT continues to shape the future of Professional AV.
