Kiloview officially announced the launch of the U4 IP Video Dock, a compact IP video decoder and output dock designed to bring professional IP video into UC meeting, display, and monitoring environments.
As IP video becomes increasingly common across production and enterprise environments, meeting and display systems remain largely disconnected from IP-based workflows. U4 is designed to close that gap, making professional IP video easier to integrate into existing communication and AV systems.
Leveraging years of expertise in AV-over-IP technologies, U4 reflects Kiloview’s continued focus on extending the practical use of professional IP video and making AV-over-IP workflows more accessible across a broader range of real-world applications.
“Meeting and display systems are typically not designed for IP video workflows,” said Judy Zuo, VP of Sales & Marketing at Kiloview. “Yet we see professional IP video moving beyond production and into everyday communication spaces, and U4 is part of our effort to make that transition simpler and easier for users.”
Bringing IP Video into Your Existing UC and AV Workflows
Kiloview U4 enables professional IP video sources to be used within existing UC and AV setups. It converts network-based video streams into USB, HDMI, and DisplayPort outputs, allowing seamless integration into established meeting and display systems.
It delivers USB UVC/UAC output for plug-and-play use with platforms such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, and OBS, while HDMI and DisplayPort outputs support up to 4K60 for room display, presentation, and monitoring scenarios, enabling simultaneous output from a single IP video source. This allows IP video to be used directly across UC and display environments without requiring additional software or system changes.
As a long-standing contributor to NDI-based workflows, Kiloview has built strong capabilities in IP video transport and interoperability. Engineered as a hardware-based decoding solution, U4 also supports major IP video protocols, including NDI High Bandwidth, NDI HX, SRT, RTMP, RTSP, UDP, RTP, and HLS, ensuring compatibility across a wide range of workflows.
Removing the need for additional software tools, virtual camera drivers, or complex configuration steps, U4 enables IP video sources to be used directly across UC meeting and display workflows. Supporting up to 100 presets, API access, and centralized control for smarter room integration and management, U4 enables faster deployment and easier coordination.
Its compact plug-and-play design fits on meeting tables, behind displays, on classroom lecterns, beside auditorium equipment, or in mobile workflows—supporting BYOD and BYOM scenarios while keeping AV setups simple, clean, and easy to adapt.
Kiloview Empowering the Future of Workplace AV and UC Collaboration
With U4 complementing Kiloview’s AV-over-IP portfolio, the company extends its reach from broadcast AV-over-IP into growing ProAV and corporate collaboration spaces. By bridging network-based video workflows with standard workplace infrastructure, U4 helps organizations make better use of existing IP assets while simplifying day-to-day communication.
U4 reinforces Kiloview’s role in making professional IP video more practical for collaboration and AV use cases. For more information about U4 IP Video Dock, please visit www.kiloview.com.
