Overview

KDS−8 is a high−performance, zero latency, 4K@60Hz (4:4:4) video streaming transceiver for streaming via Ethernet over copper cable. KDS−8 can be set as either an encoder or decoder. As an encoder, it encodes and streams the HDMI input along with IR, RS−232, and analog audio, over an IP network. As a decoder, it receives the encoded signal and decodes it for output. * DECORA® is a registered trademark of Leviton Manufacturing Co., Inc
