Chapter 2: Overview

2. Overview

2.1 Introduction

The Presentation Switcher - HDBaseT, 8 x 2 is a powereful 8-input, 2-output, multi-

format converter, switcher, scaler, and extender with built-in 4K scaling, in a compact

1U rack enclosure. It offers three HDMI inputs, two VGA inputs with stereo audio, one

DisplayPort input, (2) HDBaseT inputs, one HDMI output and one HDBaseT output. The

HDBaseT inputs and outputs use bidirectional IR passthrough, RS-232 passthrough, and

Power over HDBaseT (PoH).

Any of eight inputs can be routed into any of two outputs seamlessly. The switcher

supports up to 4K @30 Hz video resolution and can scale output from 480p to 3840 x

2160 @ 30 Hz regardless of the input video resolution. Plus, you can mix two micro-

pone inputs into any of the eight inputs for output. One balanced stereo audio breaks

out from HDBaseT output.

You can control the switcher via front-panel buttons, RS-232 RS-485, LAN, Web UI,

and IR remote. Control the switcher directly or via a third party control system.

It provides the complete API commands for integration. It also supports bi-directional

USB passthrough for use in KVM at either end of the link.

This 8 x 2 seamless 4K scaling presentation matrix switcher is your perfect choice

for collaboration presentation in conference and education field.
