Yes. The 8K outputs true 8K (7680×4320) at 60 frames per second and renders native 4K graphics in HTML5 and user interfaces.
Up to ten parallel 1080p streams in the HTML5 browser, output on two video outputs (HDMI + DisplayPort) as an extended desktop.
The 8K synchronises frame-accurately as a group. Unlike the Light and 4K2 (software-based PTP), the 8K uses a hardware-based PTP time base for especially precise, drift-free playback. For the use case see video wall synchronisation.
Yes. Industrial-grade hardware, built for maintenance-free 24/7 operation.
Two Gigabit LAN ports (separate control and content networks), WLAN/hotspot and optional 4G. For controlling light and equipment: DMX, Art-Net, relays, RS232 and UDP.
Whether museum, trade show, events, video wall synchronisation or DMX control – an overview of all solutions is on the digital signage page. Central management follows with the CF Player CMS (soon).
