The Pixelhue PD3-S20 is a higher-capacity AV-over-IP decoder and LED controller in one unit. It receives PD3 network streams and drives the LED screen directly from 20 Gigabit output ports — up to 13 million pixels — with no separate LED processor, cutting devices, cabling and latency. Inputs are network-only: HDMI sources join the system through PD3 encoders, and IP cameras connect directly over RTSP / ONVIF.
