Kramer KDS-100EN Open–Standard 4K AVoIP Encoder with Ultra–Low Latency & Dual Streaming

The KDS−100EN is a professional−grade AVoIP encoder for high−quality 4K video distribution over standard 1GbE networks. Using open−standard H.264/H.265 compression, it delivers excellent visual fidelity while ensuring seamless interoperability across mixed−vendor environments.

•  Dual Streaming — ideal for monitoring, recording, overflow rooms, and collaboration workflows.
•  Built–in KVM over IP — enables secure keyboard/mouse control of remote hosts from any decoder location. With ~40 ms latency, operators get real–time responsiveness.
•  Predefined deployment profiles — make system setup easy and adaptable to both high–capacity and constrained networks
•  Channel–based routing model — lets users switch sources by channel name/number—no IP addressing expertise required.
•  Auxiliary Data transmission — RS–232 control commands are delivered to/from peripheral devices, providing seamless AV and control integration.
•  Kramer AVoIP Manager integration — enables automatic device discovery, centralized configuration, and real–time monitoring across the entire AVoIP deployment.
•  IT–grade Security — HTTPS/TLS, 802.1x, and OWASP–10 aligned practices.
