This VS-2101X is an HDMI over H.264/H.265 transceiver. This means it can be used as an encoder or a decoder based on the mode selected. It features one HDMI input, one HDMI output, and one Ethernet port for simplified integration into your AV system. In encoder mode, the HDMI input will be encoded to H.264/H.265 and sent out the Ethernet port. In decoder mode, the H.264/H.265 data will be decoded from the Ethernet port and sent out the HDMI output. 2.2 FEATURES Uses one HDMI input, one HDMI output, and one Ethernet port Works in encoder or decoder mode Control via web UI Consumes low bandwidth Delivers content with visually lossless quality Supports AAC audio encoding to transmit high-quality audio 2.3 WHAT'S INCLUDED (1) Transceiver (1) 5V-DC, 3A power adapter (with changeable plug for US, UK, EU, and AU) 1.877.877.2269 BLACKBOX.COM 5 CCHHAAPPTTEERR 12::HOEVAEDRLVINIEEW 2.4.1 FRONT PANEL NEED HELP?
