Digitus HDMI KVM IP Receiver 4K/60Hz Wired 200m

The Digitus HDMI KVM IP Receiver (DS-55356) is an add-on receiver for the HDMI IP Extender Set (DS-55355) that enables distribution of AV content to multiple displays over an IP network. The receiver supports point-to-multipoint operation with up to 253 receivers, using existing 1G network infrastructure or additional 1G switches for cascaded, long-distance transmission. It offers local HDMI output and USB connections for keyboard, mouse and touch control, and delivers UHD video up to 4K/60Hz (4096x2160) with low latency.

Advantages

The receiver expands an HDMI IP Extender Set into a scalable, professional AV distribution system supporting up to 253 displays. It uses standard Gigabit Ethernet and CAT6 (or higher) cabling for flexible installation and cascading, provides integrated KVM support for local control, and preserves image quality with HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2/1.4 compatibility. Protection against short circuit, overvoltage and ESD ensures reliable operation in professional environments.

Suitable for

• Digital signage networks in retail and public spaces
• Classroom and lecture hall AV distribution
• Corporate meeting rooms and presentation systems
• Control rooms and remote monitoring stations
• Multi-display installations in hotels, hospitals or transportation hubs

How to use

Connect the receiver’s RJ45 port to your 1G network switch or directly to the HDMI IP Extender transmitter using CAT6 or higher cable. Attach a local display to the HDMI output and connect keyboard, mouse or touch display to the USB-A ports for KVM control. Provide power via the DC 5V/1A adapter. If expanding to multiple displays, cascade additional 1G switches as needed and ensure each receiver is addressed and configured according to the transmitter or system controller instructions. Use the micro USB port for firmware updates and the reset button to restore factory settings when required.

Recommendations

For stable 4K/60Hz transmission and optimal latency, use high-quality CAT6 (or better) cabling, keep HDMI patch cables under 5 m, and deploy Gigabit switches that support sufficient throughput. When planning large point-to-multipoint installations, verify network capacity and cascade distances section by section to maintain signal integrity and low latency.
