    1. Introduction The DD2KW is a mini and professional high-definition HDMI video decoder with built-in 2.4G+5G dual-band Wi-Fi antenna for wireless AV transmissions through Wi-Fi network or mobile hotspot. With H.264/H.265 compression, it supports the decoding of IP streams with protocols such as Onvif, RTSP, UDP, TCP, and SRT. It decodes and converts high-definition IP signals from IP cameras, encoders, NVRs, and other IP video sources into high-definition HDMI AV signal for output.
