The Q8 presentation switcher offers incredible real-time 4K video processing power. It comes with at most 72x 4K input connectors and 64x 4K output connectors, supporting up to 48x 4K concurrent inputs and 16x 4K concurrent outputs. A maximum of 32x 4K mixing layers (true seamless transitions) in switcher mode are supported.

The Q8 provides a variety of exceptional features. Multiple different connectors are designed on one input card or output card, including DP 1.2, HDMI 2.0 and 12G-SDI. The ST2110 input card supports 4x SFP25G ports, which not only offers high bandwidth and bitwidth but also allows flexible transmission of video, audio, and control data over IP networks. Additionally, the Q8 boasts the 8K video processing capability. With these capabilities, the Q8 enables you to design and manage all live events easily and economically. Thanks to the *VPU-based architecture, the number of layers on a single output card can be doubled, eliminating any concerns about running out of layer capacity.

1In addition to the ability of outputting content from the 4K connectors, the Q8 presentation switcher is also capable of transmitting signals to the LED controllers from NovaStar¹ over a long distance (up to 10 km with single-mode optical fiber) without fiber converters. This method not only ensures the signal stability but also lowers the transmission cost, making it a perfect fit for long-distance signal transmission.
