VERDICT

Should I use Key Digital?

Key Digital designs professional AV-over-IP, distribution, switching, and control solutions for commercial AV integrators. Engineered for Your Success. - keydigital.com

Depends. Solid pick for commercial AV integrators specifying HDMI and AV-over-IP distribution; home users and small offices should skip it. Public evidence is thin, so confidence is low.

Confidence

Only a handful of public reviews exist — bench-test before big deployments

AV-over-IP security documentation is absent; plan network isolation yourself

Some units surface on Amazon/eBay, but pro installs still assume an integrator
