The unit supports HDMI 2.0b signals up to 4K@60Hz (3840×2160) with HDCP 2.2 protection and an 18Gbps data rate, making it compatible with 4K streaming devices, Blu-ray players, gaming consoles and satellite receivers. Audio can be extracted from HDMI output 1 via an optical SPDIF port and a 3.5mm stereo jack, allowing simultaneous output to a soundbar or amplifier alongside the video display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for commercial installations in hospitality, sports bars, retail showrooms and conference facilities, the matrix allows independent control of each output via front panel buttons, IR remote, or RS232 serial connection. The RS232 port enables integration with larger AV control systems from a connected PC or control processor. EDID management switches on the front panel allow specific video resolution and audio format settings to be locked per input, preventing handshake issues with displays that support different capabilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe metal chassis measures 276×143×26mm and weighs 720g, suitable for rack mounting or placement on an equipment shelf. Gold-plated HDMI connectors reduce signal degradation over cable runs up to 30m combined length (input + output) at 4K@30Hz and Full HD resolutions, or 10m combined at 4K@60Hz. The unit supports multi-channel audio formats including DTS-HD, Dolby TrueHD, LPCM 7.1, DTS, Dolby AC3 and DSD. A 12V DC power supply with UK plug and an IR remote are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHDMI version\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ev2.0b\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax. resolution\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3840 x 2160 @ 60Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDisplay colours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8\/10\/12bit deep colour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHDCP version\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAudio format\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDTS-HD\/Dolby-trueHD\/LPCM7.1\/DTS\/Dolby-AC3\/DSD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput connections\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4x HDMI\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOutput connections\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4x HDMI, Optical (Toslink), 3.5mm Stereo\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax. baud rate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18Gbps\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTransmission distance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30m max 4K @ 30Hz and FHD or 10m max 4K @ 60Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMax. working current\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e800mA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating temperature range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-15°C to +55°C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBattery : remote\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2x AAA (not supplied)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower adaptor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInput: AC (50Hz, 60Hz) 100-240V, Output: DC12V\/1A\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e276x143x26mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e720g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/128850UK.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Manual\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan each display show a different source at the same time?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
