KD-IP822ENC / KD-IP822DEC
Key Digital’s AV over IP Encoders and Decoders create expandable HDMI over IP systems that can be scaled to fit any professional video installation need. Add Encoder units to your system to integrate each video source/input and Decoder unit for each video display/output. The input/output amounts are completely flexible. Use AV over IP Encoders and Decoders in place of these traditional product categories:

Digital Video Matrix
Digital Video Distribution System
Digital Video Switcher
Video Wall Controller
Digital Video Extender
Master Controller
