High-Quality, Low-Latency: The Darwin HD delivers pristine 1080p60 resolution with 4:4:4 chroma subsampling, ensuring true-to-life color and detail. The Darwin HD leverages H.265 hardware acceleration for efficient video compression, delivering high-quality HD video at reduced bitrates.
Balanced Audio: Deliver balanced left/right audio with ease using the analog breakout I/O terminal connectors.
One-to-One or One-to-Many: Configure a direct one-to-one connection for simple point-to-point video delivery, ensuring reliable performance with minimal network bandwidth. Or, scale up with one-to-many multicast, simultaneously distributing your content to multiple endpoints.
Power Options: Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) streamlines installation with a single cable, delivering both power and data, or you can power with the included power supply. Or, you can use PoE and DC simultaneously for power redundancy.
Networking and Security: Advanced security features include AES 256 encryption, HTTPS, and SSH login. These features ensure your data and controls remain safe and your network is protected from unauthorized access. You can also seamlessly integrate with third-party systems such as Q-SYS, Crestron, and more using robust, secure API support.
Rugged, Compact Design: The compact design allows you to mount it discreetly behind screens or in tight spaces. It is housed in a rugged, all-metal chassis featuring a bright Turtle Aqua color.
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-DARWINHD-TX?
A: The Turtle AV TAV-DARWINHD-TX is a Darwin HD H.265 HDMI AV-over-IP transmitter designed to encode HDMI video for network distribution.
It supports 1080p60 4:4:4 workflows and is intended for professional installations where HDMI sources need to be distributed over an Ethernet network.
What video format does the Darwin HD TX support?
A: The product is designed around HDMI video up to 1080p60 with 4:4:4 chroma and H.265 encoding.
The supported format provides a balance between image quality and network efficiency for distributed AV applications.
Why is H.265 used for AV-over-IP?
A: H.265 encoding reduces the amount of network bandwidth required to transport video compared with an uncompressed signal.
This makes compressed AV-over-IP useful when many video streams must share network infrastructure while maintaining a practical level of image quality.
What is AV-over-IP?
A: AV-over-IP transports audio and video through standard Ethernet network infrastructure rather than dedicated point-to-point AV cabling.
This architecture can simplify distribution across multiple rooms and allow sources and displays to be connected through a scalable network.
Can the transmitter distribute video to remote receivers?
A: Yes, the transmitter is designed to place its HDMI source onto the Darwin network for reception by compatible endpoints.
This allows the source and display locations to be separated while using the facility's network as the distribution path.
Does it support 4:4:4 chroma at 1080p60?
A: The product specification identifies 1080p60 4:4:4 video as its target format.
This is useful for computer graphics and presentation sources where maintaining full chroma detail can improve text and fine graphical elements.
What HDMI sources can be connected?
A: Compatible HDMI sources such as computers, media players, cameras, and presentation devices can be used within the supported signal specifications.
Source compatibility also depends on the HDMI format, HDCP requirements, and other characteristics of the connected equipment.
What network infrastructure is required?
A: The transmitter requires Ethernet infrastructure capable of carrying the encoded H.265 AV stream.
Switch capacity, network topology, addressing, multicast behavior, and traffic management should be considered when designing a larger Darwin deployment.
Can the Darwin HD TX be used for digital signage?
A: Yes, networked HDMI distribution is well suited to digital signage and distributed display applications.
A centralized source can be encoded once and delivered across the network to compatible Darwin receivers located at multiple display endpoints.
What applications suit the Darwin HD transmitter?
A: Applications include corporate AV, education, digital signage, control rooms, training facilities, and distributed video systems.
Its 1080p60 H.265 architecture is appropriate when network efficiency and full-chroma HD video are required.
