8K VIDEO DISTRIBUTION SOLUTIONS
For routing, splitting and extending your 8K sources
What’s the difference between 8K video distribution and 4K video distribution?
What sets apart 8K video distribution from 4K video distribution primarily comes down to the support for HDMI standards. The key differentiator here is the HDMI version. The current standard for transmitting 8K and even 10K video signals is HDMI 2.1. In contrast, standard 4K matrix switchers or signal splitters typically adhere to HDMI 2.0, limiting them to transmitting resolutions up to 4K at 60Hz. The HDMI 2.0 standard lacks several key video and audio processing features found in HDMI 2.1, which could potentially have a substantial impact.
It's important to note that simply labeling a product as '8K' doesn't guarantee quality. The critical factor is whether it's equipped with the proper support for the HDMI 2.1 standard. Without this support, the expected high-quality 8K video experience may not be realized.
The BZBGEAR Advantage: Leading the 8K Revolution
BZBGEAR proudly stands as a distinguished member of the 8K Association, earning profound recognition for pioneering
advancements in 8K video distribution. Unlike mere claims, BZBGEAR substantiates its commitment to 8K by meticulously
adhering to rigorous industry standards, solidifying its position at the forefront of cutting-edge technology.
Witness the Distinction!
1080p Full HD
Provides a clear image suitable for most screens, with 2 million pixels. Pixels may become visible on larger screens.
4K Ultra HD
Offers four times the pixels of 1080p (8 million pixels), resulting in a sharper and more detailed image, ideal for larger screens and applications where detail matters.
8K Ultra HD
The highest consumer-grade resolution, with 33 million pixels. It delivers incredibly sharp and lifelike visuals, best suited for large screens, high-end home theaters, and professional video production.
For those who are still unsure about making the transition from 1080p-supported devices to 4K technology, the concept of
8K might appear daunting. However, in reality, 8K has already established itself in the world of smart TVs, gaming
consoles, and even smartphones. By embracing 8K equipment that adheres to the HDMI 2.1 standard, you not only gain
access to a larger, more immersive viewing experience with incredibly lifelike video quality, but you also unlock a range of
exclusive features outlined by the HDMI 2.1 standard: VRR, ALLM, and QFT. Moreover, users of 8K equipment also benefit
from support for 4K120Hz, a crucial feature extensively utilized in gaming and live-action content.
8K Single Cable Switchers
The magic lies in the single HDMI 2.1 signal sent from the switcher to your display. This signal carries both console signals simultaneously, making it easy to switch between them, offering you a hassle-free and convenient gaming experience. Whether you're a gaming enthusiast or just looking for a more streamlined setup, single cable switchers provide a practical solution for managing multiple HDMI 2.1 sources on a single display.
