HDMI Switch, 5 in, 1 Out, with Remote Control, Built-in Equalizer
HDMI Switch, 5 in, 1 out (5x1):
This HDMI Switch is suitable for use in a system where you need to accommodate more HDMI sources than you have available HDMI inputs on your television or A/V receiver. Choice between the active inputs can be controlled either by way of the switch button on the front panel or by the included remote control. Because HDMI switching often involves extended distance runs, this switch also includes an active equalization circuit to help extend the working distance of the HDMI connection.
Compatibility:
This switch will accommodate a signal bandwidth up to 3.4 Gbps/channel (10.2 Gbps combined), which will cover any currently available HDMI resolution, frame rate, color depth, or other protocol or standard other than: Ethernet over HDMI, Audio Return Channel or extended bandwidth (18.0 Gbps) HDMI for 4K at 50 or 60 frames per second or at extended color gamut. It will handle all conventional resolutions, and will also handle the majority of 4K signal sources currently available on the market.
Features, Protocols and Standards
Apart from the aforementioned, our switch is compatible with all features, protocols and standards supported by HDMI -- 3D, Deep Color, HDCP, TrueHD Dolby, DTS-HD, et cetera. In fact, as a general rule switches do not require specific "support" for the various HDMI protocols as the switch is merely passing-through, with some equalization, the signal from the source.
Supports additional IR functions with optional IR kit:
An optional IR kit is available (enter "B001L0XJGA" in the search box to find it) which can be used either to (1) allow the switch to be triggered by a separate sensor, or (2) use a sensor at the display to relay IR signals down the HDMI cable to a remote location where those signals can be re-emitted to control the switch and other devices.
