Key Digital KD-CDA3 three-channel HDTV component A/V distribution amplifier

KD-CDA3Key Digital Systems has introduced its KD-CDA3 three-channel HDTV component video and audio distribution amplifier. Supporting up to 1080p analog video and 300 MHz via component video (YpbRr) or VGA (RGBHV) video without audio, it’s an ideal companion for small-scale video/audio distribution applications. The device can interface HDTV/SDTV video/audio sources to up to three independent video displays and sound systems.

It accepts any analog source input, such as a DVD player, gaming console, set-top box, digital video recorder, or VCR, in any video format, and drives up to three separate analog-input displays. Video distribution is adaptable for composite and S-Video SDTV applications with adapters; while audio is analog stereo or digital (PCM).

The KD-CDA3 is expandable with additional units or other Key Digital products, and its circuitry supports cables up to 300 feet. Key Digital says it’s easy to set up and operate: just connect a source and the displays. A mounting bracket is provided.

The KD-CDA3 is currently available for a retail price of $499. For more information, contact Aralex Acoustics Ltd. toll-free at 1-800-663-6732.
