General
The AV-GM08K3-S1K Professional Quad-View Video Processor with Keyboard & Mouse
Control is an advanced video processor for multimedia presentations. It is an ideal solution for
applications where up to four video signals must be displayed on a single display. It supports up
to 16 video inputs, of which four can be outputted simultaneously with the desired display layout
through software control. The advanced video processor allows you to manipulate output
images, wherever positions and whatever sizes you want for viewing two computers or two video
signals or a combination. In addition to typical 4 channel video processor, AV-GM08K3-S1K is also
equipped with PS2-IN-USB-OUT keyboard and mouse control board. With this feature, users can
switch K/M control among 2 to 4 PC sources.
The embedded scaler converts signals from input sources to match the native resolution of
monitors, flat panel displays, projectors as well as user-selectable output settings up to WUXGA
(1920x1200). Dual outputs are provided in both analog (VGA) and digital (DVI) format, one is
connected to remote display and the other is connected to on-site display for real time
monitoring.
