MuxLab IMU-500760-TX-KVM - KVM over IP 4K/60Hz transmitter
The MuxLab IMU-500760-TX-KVM is a high-performance KVM-over-IP transmitter designed to extend and distribute HDMI video, audio, and USB control signals over an IP network. Based on advanced SDVoE (Software Defined Video over Ethernet) technology, this device is the perfect solution for professional applications demanding the highest image quality and instant response. It allows you to connect servers, workstations, or any HDMI source to a 10Gb Ethernet network, facilitating remote control from one or more operator consoles (requires 500760-RX-KVM receiver, not included).
Supporting resolutions up to 4K at 60Hz (4:4:4) , the 500760-TX-KVM ensures exceptional video transmission. It offers uncompressed transmission for 4K/60 (4:2:0) video and visually lossless, lightweight compression for 4K/60 (4:4:4), all with zero latency (undetectable to humans). This makes it the ideal choice for critical environments such as control centers, broadcast production, medical applications, and operating rooms where precision and immediacy are crucial. Transmission occurs over a single Cat 5e/6 or higher cable, reaching distances of up to 100 meters without signal degradation.
