Description
The KDS-8F is a zero latency SDVoE video streaming transceiver designed to transport pristine 4K@60Hz (4:4:4) HDR video over single-mode or multi-mode fiber. It can be configured as either an encoder or a decoder to stream HDMI or DisplayPort sources across an IP network. The device preserves image integrity while supporting modern content protection and sync features.

Performance specifications emphasize low latency and high bandwidth delivery, using a 10G Ethernet link to ensure reliable transport. The transceiver embeds analog audio and supports bi-directional USB over IP for peripheral sharing. Control channels include bi-directional IR and RS-232 over IP for remote device management.
Connectivity covers HDMI and DisplayPort inputs, unbalanced analog audio embedding, and fiber optic links for long-distance runs using single-mode or multi-mode cable. Network features include multicast support, jumbo frames, IGMP snooping and fast leave for efficient multicast management. LED indicators simplify local diagnostics for power, Tx/Rx mode, source detection and USB connectivity.

The KDS-8F supports video wall and multiview layouts, enabling flexible display configurations. These capabilities make it suitable for mission-critical AV distribution where latency and image fidelity are essential.
