KDS−8 è il nuovo ricetrasmettitore ad alte prestazioni per lo streaming video via ethernet o cavo in rame. Latenza zero, risoluzione massima 4K@60Hz (4:4:4).KDS−8 può essere settato come encoder o decoder. Come encoder codifica e trasmette input HDMI insieme a IR, RS−232 e audio analogico su rete IP. In qualità di decoder riceve e decodifica il segnale per l'output. Codec compatibile SDVoE Alliance e massima compatibilità con altre piattaforme di streaming software e hardware.

• High–Performance Video Streaming Transceiver — Streams up to 4K@60Hz (4:4:4) resolution signals over a 10G network interface, providing lossless compression.
• Maximum Compatibility — Fully standard and compliant SDVoE™ codec, enables compatibility with other software and hardware streaming platforms.
• Streamlined Management and Configuration — Kramer KDS–8–MNGR device (sold separately) provides a central point of management and enables creating multiple virtual matrices, video walls and multi–view configurations. In addition, KDS–8–MNGR supports preset configurations that can be activated using Kramer Control.
