This Turtle AV TAV-DARWIN4K-TX Darwin 4K HDMI over IP Transmitter works with a separately available receiver to transmit one-to-one or one-to-many video distribution environments from an HDMI source over IP.
This unit is designed for video walls up to 9x9 or even sports bars that need a single event displayed on multiple screens.
High-Resolution Transmission: The Darwin 4K delivers pristine UHD 4K30 (3840 x 2160) resolution, ensuring true-to-life color and detail.
Multiview: The Darwin 4K transmitter streams multiple streams to a separately available Darwin 4K receiver, which can receive multiple streams and output as a single multiview in 4K.
For example, at a sports bar, you can show four games at once with a quad view output on a single Darwin RX from four Darwin 4K sources.
When the main event starts, you can switch to a single full-screen game.
Power Options: Power over Ethernet (PoE) streamlines installation with a single cable delivering both power and data.
Alternatively, you can power via the included PSU, or use PoE and DC for power redundancy.
Unicast, Multicast, Multiview: Configure a direct one-to-one connection for simple point-to-point, or scale up with one-to-many multicast, distributing your content to multiple endpoints simultaneously.
Darwin 4K supports videowall configurations up to 9x9, enabling up to 81 displays to be configured as a single display.
Analog Audio I/O: You can input analog audio for embedding into your transmission using the 3-pin terminal block connection.
You can also output the audio for local speakers or monitors.
HDCP and EDID Management: The Darwin 4K system simplifies connections with advanced EDID management, featuring automatic detection, as well as the ability to load custom EDID tables directly through the WebGUI.
The system ensures compatibility and compliance with copyright standards using HDCP 1.4.
RS-232 Routing and API: You can utilize RS-232 routing to control each display and customize commands for specific endpoints without interfering with others.
Also, using the separately available Darwin 4K Control unit, you can seamlessly integrate with third-party systems such as Q-SYS, Crestron, and more using robust API support for control and configuration.
Web GUI: Easily configure and manage your entire network of Darwin 4K transmitters and receivers through an intuitive web GUI.
Security: With the separately available Darwin 4K Control unit, you can add advanced security features, including AES-256 encryption, HTTPS, and SSH login.
These features ensure your data and controls remain safe.
TAA Compliant: Turtle AV products, sold by HDTV Supply, and sold in the USA are TAA compliant, meeting U.S. government standards for procurement.
This ensures they can be confidently used in federal contracts, adhering to strict ethical sourcing and manufacturing regulations.

What is the Turtle AV TAV-DARWIN4K-TX?
A: The Turtle AV TAV-DARWIN4K-TX is a Darwin 4K HDMI-over-IP transmitter designed to place 4K HDMI video onto a network for distribution.
It is intended for professional AV-over-IP systems where high-resolution HDMI sources must be delivered to remote receivers over Ethernet.
Does the Darwin 4K TX support 4K video?
A: Yes, the transmitter is designed specifically for Darwin 4K HDMI-over-IP applications.
The exact resolution, frame rate, and signal format depend on the connected HDMI source and the supported capabilities of the Darwin system.
How does HDMI over IP work?
A: The transmitter converts the HDMI source into a network transport stream that can be distributed through compatible Ethernet infrastructure.
A compatible Darwin receiver at the destination then converts the network stream back into an HDMI display signal.
Can the transmitter distribute one source to multiple displays?
A: Networked AV systems can route a source stream to compatible receiver endpoints across the network.
The number of simultaneous destinations depends on the network architecture, available bandwidth, and control configuration.
What sources can be connected?
A: Compatible HDMI sources such as computers, media players, cameras, and presentation systems can be connected within the transmitter's supported signal range.
Source and HDCP compatibility should be checked when protected or high-bandwidth content is involved.
What network infrastructure is needed?
A: The transmitter requires Ethernet switching and cabling capable of carrying the selected Darwin 4K AV streams.
Network design should consider bandwidth, switching performance, multicast behavior, topology, and endpoint count.
Is the Darwin 4K TX suitable for digital signage?
A: Yes, it can be used to distribute high-resolution signage sources over an IP network.
This can allow centralized content sources to feed remote displays without dedicated long HDMI runs to every endpoint.
Can it be centrally controlled?
A: The Darwin ecosystem includes compatible control and central-management components.
Centralized control can simplify routing, configuration, and administration when multiple Darwin 4K endpoints are deployed.
Can it be used in video-wall systems?
A: Yes, the transmitter can provide source content to compatible networked receivers that form part of larger display systems.
Video-wall processing and layout capabilities depend on the associated Darwin products and control architecture.
What applications suit the Darwin 4K TX?
A: Applications include corporate AV, control rooms, digital signage, education, command centers, and distributed 4K display systems.
Its networked architecture is useful when 4K HDMI sources need to be distributed across multiple locations.
