DIGITUS DS-55354 — HDMI IP PoE Receiver 4K/60Hz
Receiver for DS-553534K/60Hz · HDMI 2.0PoE poweredUp to 253 receivers
The DIGITUS DS-55354 is an additional HDMI-over-IP receiver for the DIGITUS DS-55353 HDMI IP PoE Extender Set. It takes the 4K/60Hz video stream from the DS-55353 transmitter over a Gigabit network and outputs it on HDMI, so you can add more screens to an existing installation — up to 253 receivers on one transmitter.
The receiver connects to a PoE network switch with CAT6 cable and draws its power (approx. 2.5 W) from the switch, so no power socket is needed at the display; a 5 V adapter is included for networks without PoE. Each segment can be up to 120 m, and receivers can be cascaded. An IR input lets you pass remote-control signals back to the source.
Before you order: This is a RECEIVER ONLY. It works with the transmitter of the DIGITUS DS-55353 set — not with the non-PoE DS-55351 set (its receiver is DS-55352), and not with other brands’ HDMI-over-IP systems.
What's in the Box
- 1 × HDMI IP PoE receiver (DS-55354)
- 1 × power supply DC 5 V / 1 A (1.5 m)
- 1 × IR extension cable (1.0 m)
- 1 × operating instructions
What It Means in Practice
- Add one DS-55354 per extra display — e.g. menu boards, lobby screens or classroom displays fed from one source.
- PoE from the switch removes the need for a mains socket behind the screen.
- Expect latency of 150–220 ms at 4K/60 and 80–130 ms at Full HD — fine for signage and presentations.
- Use CAT6 or better; the HDMI cable from receiver to display should not exceed 5 m.
What Will Not Work
- It does nothing on its own — the DS-55353 transmitter must be on the same network.
- It will not work with the DS-55351/DS-55352 system or third-party HDMI-over-IP products.
- DIGITUS does not publish the PoE standard or the network switch requirements (multicast/IGMP) — check your switch with us first.
- It is for indoor use only.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a special network switch?
You need a Gigabit switch, and a PoE switch if you want to power the receiver over the cable. DIGITUS does not publish multicast/IGMP requirements, so send us your switch model and we will check.
Can I connect the receiver directly to the transmitter?
The DS-55353 set supports a direct point-to-point link up to 200 m; for additional receivers you go through a switch.
Is HDMI audio passed?
Yes, audio is carried in the HDMI stream from the transmitter to the receiver.
Singular Expert Insight · Buyer's Guide
The DS-55354 is how you grow a DS-55353 installation from one screen to many without new cabling to each source. The switch is the critical part: Gigabit, PoE, and ideally multicast-capable. See our
network switches and ask us to check before you expand.
✓ Buy it if you already run the DIGITUS DS-55353 set and want to add another display over the network.
✕ Skip it if you do not own the DS-55353 transmitter — buy the complete set first.
→ Also consider DIGITUS DS-55353, the complete HDMI IP PoE extender set (transmitter + receiver).
