Kramer 3KHVE2i HDb3000 HDMI RF/IP Media Module Blade

This blade encodes two unencrypted HDMI sources (up to 1080p with embedded or analog audio) into MPEG-2 for simultaneous QAM/DVB-T/C RF modulation and IP streaming. Designed for hot-swappable use in the HDb3000 chassis, it supports closed captioning and includes independent analog audio delay matching.

Compact and rack-optimized, the module integrates front- and rear-mounted LCD/IP configuration with support via ZeeVee Maestro. It's ideal for HD video distribution in hospitality, enterprise, and broadcast headend applications.
