ZeeVee Uncompressed 4K Copper Decoder - Z4KDECC3XS

Product Overview

The ZeeVee Z4KDECC3XS ZyPer4K-XS is a 10Gbps copper AV-over-IP decoder that delivers uncompressed 4K/60 4:4:4 video to displays over standard Cat6a cabling up to 100 meters. Built for commercial AV integrators deploying SDVoE-based video distribution in conference rooms, boardrooms, and digital signage networks, it operates at zero-frame latency with no compression introduced at any point in the signal chain. As part of ZeeVee's ZyPer4K-XS family, the Z4KDECC3XS is fully compatible with full-size ZyPer4K encoders and decoders, allowing it to serve as a cost-effective display endpoint in enterprise-scale AV-over-IP systems. Centralized management is handled through ZeeVee's ZyPer Management Platform.

Product Description

The Z4KDECC3XS receives uncompressed 4K video streams over a standard managed 10Gbps copper network and outputs the decoded signal via HDMI 2.0 to connected displays. Cat6a cabling to 100 meters makes this decoder straightforward to deploy in standard commercial construction — no fiber optic terminations, SFP modules, or specialized cabling contractors required. HDCP 2.2 is supported end-to-end for protected content distribution. Eight channels of LPCM digital audio pass through via HDMI, and a 3.5mm unbalanced stereo output provides analog audio breakout at the display location. USB 2.0 extension between ZyPer4K-XS and ZyPer4K-XR devices enables peripheral sharing for conferencing and collaboration room deployments. Video wall configurations up to 15x15 are supported, and multiview layouts of up to 19 simultaneous sources are available for control room and monitoring applications. The Z4KDECC3XS consumes approximately 8W, making it practical for large-scale endpoint deployments powered from 10Gbps PoE-capable switches where applicable.
