Key Digital’s Latest HDMI Matrix Release Presents Unprecedented Value
App-ready matrix switchers ensure AV integrators will never again have to risk purchasing no-name HDMI products MOUNT VERNON, NY – January 6, 2020 – Key Digital, the award-winning
manufacturer of professional AV and control systems introduces the
app-ready KD-MS4x4G and KD-MS8x8G 4x4/8x8
4K/18G HDMI matrix switchers with independent audio switching or de-embedding
of balanced/unbalanced and PCM digital audio. “KD-MS4x4G and KD-MS8x8G are proven reliable HDMI matrix
switchers delivering the latest in UHD/4K and HDMI standards. 18Gbps and HDR
support result in brilliant high image quality, and our proprietary EDID
control ensures that the integrator is in charge of the communication.
Independent audio routing uniquely places this product as a perfect solution in
both commercial and residential applications,” said Jonathon Ferry, National
Training Manager for Key Digital. “Lastly, configuration of KDMS Pro with
control of the KD-App make the experience better than ever for installers and
the end-users alike.” KD-MS4x4G and KD-MS8x8G supports HDCP 2.2 and all SD, HD, and VESA (VGA, SVGA, XGA, WXGA, SXGA, UXGA) up to UHD/4K
18G 4096x2160 or 3840x2160 24/25/30/60hz at 4:4:4 and 1080p. All UHD/4K EDID
handshake files include HDR header information. The KD-MS4x4G and KD-MS8x8G feature HDMI matrix switching
for four or eight respective HDMI sources to four or eight HDMI outputs and
four or eight analog and digital audio outputs which may be independently
controlled to follow the HDMI output selection or separately switched to
accommodate a wide variety of usage applications in professional AV systems
integration. The matrix switchers are fully licensed and compatible with
HDCP 2.2 and features support of HDR10 (High Dynamic Range) video which allows users to
experience more life-like images through a greater range of luminance levels.
Key Digital’s HDR10 delivery is handled as part of their proprietary
Full-Buffer Technology (FBT). Studies have concluded that viewers prefer video
signals with more contrast ratio vs higher resolution, and the KD-MS4x4G
and KD-MS8x8G
deliver the highest possible support across both highly sought-after features. Key Digital’s Full Buffer Technology manages TMDS re-clocking
and signal re-generation, HDCP authentication to source & display, and EDID
handshaking control. Unlike many manufacturers, Key Digital has had EDID
control for 12+ years. EDID control has 15 different settings inside the
software, many of which are now updated to contain HDR header information in
the handshake. HDCP authentication on the HDMI input gives each source the
information and file it needs and is 2.2 compliant. Forced Hot Plug Detection
enables the integrator or user to choose if the active signal voltage is forced
to the connected input device.
With KD-App and KDMS Pro installers can scan and
detect for a pre-built GUI and TCP/IP control. The Key Digital app can be
downloaded free from the App Store while KDMS Pro can be downloaded directly
from Key Digital’s website.
