Kystar KBS600 LED control system sending box
The Kystar KBS600 receives synchronous HDMI or DVI video and transmits it to compatible LED receiving cards through six Gigabit Ethernet outputs. It supports a total LED load of 2.35 million pixels, making it an option for conference displays, exhibition screens and rental or fixed LED installations within that pixel budget.
Its maximum video input is 2048 × 1152 at 60 Hz. Choose it by the actual screen resolution and connection plan, rather than the number of output sockets alone.

Loading calculations that matter
A 1920 × 1080 LED canvas contains 2,073,600 pixels, below the stated total limit. The final port map must also stay within the 650,000-pixel limit per output and match the receiving-card and refresh-rate configuration. Six ports do not provide six times the unit’s 2.35-million-pixel capacity.
A 4000-pixel width or height is a custom-dimension limit, not support for a 4000 × 4000 display. Check the source timing and supported custom resolution as well as the LED pixel total.
Calibration and installation features
- Passive calibration: performs point-by-point brightness and color correction with the compatible Kystar calibration system, without requiring an active video source.
- Flexible cable routing: supports non-rectangular layouts so unused areas need not consume loading resources.
- Image adjustment: includes brightness/color-temperature controls; the manufacturer also describes grayscale refinement and automatic color-gamut calibration.
- Spherical-screen processing: use a supported KR, Hxs or Mx receiving-card configuration and confirm the exact model and firmware.
- Centralized control: USB or Gigabit Ethernet connects the host computer; cascading simplifies configuration of multiple sending units.
Frequently asked questions
Does KBS600 accept a 4K video input?
Its documented maximum input is 2048 × 1152 at 60 Hz. The manufacturer’s reference to calibration beyond 4K describes a calibration workflow; it is not a 4K input specification for this sender.
Can KBS600 drive a Full HD LED screen?
A 1920 × 1080 screen fits the stated total pixel budget. Verify the individual output loads, compatible receiving cards and required refresh rate before confirming the design.
Are its six Ethernet ports computer-network control ports?
The six LAN outputs carry display data to receiving cards. Use the dedicated USB and CFG-1G connections for host-computer configuration and cascading control.
What should be checked before ordering?
Confirm screen width and height in pixels, HDMI/DVI source timing, receiving-card model, port allocation, backup requirements and any sensor or calibration accessories. If the design needs 4K60 input, compare the separately specified Kystar KBS2000 Pro.
Conclusion
The KBS600 provides six-port synchronous LED transmission with HDMI/DVI input and passive calibration for displays within a 2.35-million-pixel load. Match the signal format and complete cabinet wiring plan to its documented limits.
