Overview

VM−4DKT is a high−quality, long−reach, 4K@60Hz (4:4:4) DGKat extender distributor that converts HDMI input signals into the transmitted DGKat™ 2.0 signal and distributes it to four identical outputs, which are connected to compatible DGKat receivers.

• High Performance Extension — Professional DGKat™ 2.0 distributor transmitter for providing long–reach signals and power over twisted pair copper infrastructures. VM–4DKT employs low–level video compression technology that delivers visually lossless performance for 4K@60Hz (4:4:4) HDR signals with near–zero latency.
• HDMI Looping — Output mirroring allows presented content monitoring and its cascading to other connected components within the composed solution.
• HDMI Support — HDR10, HDCP 2.3, x, Dolby TrueHD, DTS–HD, 2K, and 4K as specified in HDMI 2.0.
• Multi–channel Audio Extension — Up to 8 channels of digital stereo uncompressed signals for supporting studio–grade surround sound.
• Cost–effective Deployment — Flexible use of default or connected display EDID, with locking option, to ensure proper presentation of source HDMI content on remotely connected displays.
• Easy Installation — Single twisted–pair cable for signal and power distribution. Half 19” size enables flexible and convenient mounting under table or 2 side–by–side units in a 1U rack space.
