No, this specific model is limited to a maximum resolution of 1080p Full HD and WUXGA (1920 x 1200). If your setup requires 4K, you will need to look for a different model that supports higher bandwidths.

The system supports USB 2.0 data rates up to 480 Mbps, making it suitable for standard peripherals like keyboards, mice, and basic storage devices. It is ideal for remote workstation access, though it may not support high-bandwidth devices like webcams or specialized capture cards.

Setup is straightforward thanks to the built-in web interface. Once the hardware is connected to your network, you can access the configuration menu through a browser to manage your connections and settings without needing complex command-line programming.

Yes, it supports bi-directional stereo analog audio transport via a 3.5mm jack. This allows you to send audio alongside your video signal, which is useful for applications like digital signage or remote audio monitoring.
