Description
This 6×8 HDMI and HDBaseT Matrix supports routing and transmission of video (resolutions up to 4K@60Hz w/ HDMI 2.0 & HDCP 2.2) and audio (multi-channel digital/stereo analog) while providing flexible control via IR, RS-232, Telnet or WebGUI. As many as six UltraHD sources may be routed to any of eight destinations, six via single Cat.5e/6/7 cables (up to 60m at 1080p or up to 35m at 4K@30Hz) and two via HDMI 2.0 outputs. The two HDMI 2.0 outputs support transmission of 18Gbps UltraHD HDMI sources (up to 4K@60Hz, 4:4:4) from any HDMI input or they can mirror any of the HDBaseT outputs for local monitoring. 3D video is also supported when compatible sources and displays are connected. This product supports passing 7.1 channel LPCM digital audio as well as advanced bitstream and HD bitstream audio formats. Additionally, six analog audio outputs are available to provide stereo breakout audio from the associated HDBaseT output (LPCM 2.0 sources only). Beyond basic video routing, this product also incorporates an independent audio matrix with eight audio outputs and four audio inputs. Offering discrete audio routing, insertion and extraction, this product makes it possible to have multiple audio zones within your installation. This product supports the Optical Audio Return (OAR) channel feature, found on compatible HDBaseT receivers, allowing optical audio sources connected to those receivers to be sent back to the matrix unit. Internally generated test patterns (up to 18Gbps UHD resolutions) are provided to assist with setup, providing a simple way to verify both matrix and sink functionality. The Power over HDBaseT (PoH) function can power compatible receivers, providing greater flexibility in your installations. Control is via manual selection buttons, WebGUI, Telnet, RS-232 or IR remote.
