• Large-scale video wall controls supports more than 64 screens in different layouts that are easily configurable via the dedicated management device, and switchable in one click using the management device or Kramer Control software.
• Instantaneous switching optimized for a fast switching time. Switching between streams takes just 1 second or less.

Ideal for Large-Scale Deployments
• Highly scalable - the KDS-7 line supports up to 1000 video sources, suited to the largest installations.
• State-of-the-art management device with advanced management capabilities that are provided via the dedicated management device, including multi-device grouping, preset virtual matrix stream routes, group configuration management and role-based access management.
• Extensive set of management capabilities featuresWith open P3K APIs, a front panel LCD screen and an intuitive, embedded web-based user interface, KDS-7 devices provide a rich set of tools for deployment and configuration. This enables audio-visual experiences in any space, large or small, and allows management from anywhere for reliable and flexible operational management.

Robust Security
• Enterprise IT-grade security - KDS-7 devices comply with IT security requirements, including 802.1x and HTTP-S/TLS.
• Security certification - All devices carry OWASP Top 10 certification for web application security.
• Separate ethernet ports for optimal security and experience -Physical separation between control and AV data over two separate Ethernet ports ensures IT control and an uninterrupted audio-visual experience.

Simple Planning and Rollout
• Cost-effective from day one - Plug-and-play integration with leading IP network switches, such as Netgear M4250 series, enable deployment in a wide variety of network topologies. There is no need to deal with complex IP packets prioritization or switching setting. Offering easy management, high reliability and adjustable bandwidth control, KDS-7 is extremely cost-effective to maintain over the long term
• Full product range for any site, any application - The comprehensive KDS-7 line spans encoders, decoders and auto-switcher encoders in a choice of rack and wall-plate form factors, as well as a dedicated manager device. The broad set of products within the KDS-7 product line allows quick and cost-effective rollout of AV-enabled spaces of all forms and size. The eight different KDS-7 devices can be combined in any way, with any quantity of decoders, according to the site needs.
• Integrated with Kramer's complete audio-visual solutions, KDS-7 line is part of Kramer's market-leading full AVoIP-based solution. It is pre-integrated with Kramer Control, allowing efficient deployment and control of any space, at a fraction of the time and cost of standalone alternatives. It also works perfectly with KDS-USB2 for AVoIP remote access to any USB peripheral devices, such as webcams.

Applications
• For real-time essential installations such as command and control rooms
• For large scale AV content sharing installations using existing wires and infrastructure in corporate offices and government applications
• AV distribution systems with one or more sources and many displays in schools, universities, and public venues
