Gefen 4x1 HDTV Switcher With Discrete IR Remote Control US$ 348.00
The Gefen 4x1 HDTV Switcher with Discrete IR Remote Control Routes Any One of Four HDTV Sources to One HDTV Screen EXT-HDTV-441.
4 HDTV Sources + 1 HDTV Screen = High Definition Versatility and Performance
The ex-tend-it 4x1 HDTV Switcher offers unparalleled flexibility in the setup of high definition theater and electronics systems. A plug and play solution, the 4x1 HDTV Switcher connects four HDTV source devices, including satellite set-tops, DVD players, TiVo systems and even DVI-based computer systems, and links them to one high definition screen. You simply select what source will be viewed on the screen using the Switcher or its IR remote control. It can also be controlled using any universal programmable remote device, offering an alternative to multiple remote control confusion. An effective and reliable solution that eliminates the need to purchase several high-definition screens, the 4x1 HDTV Switcher requires no additional power supply to operate. Yet it is equipped with a 5-volt DC input in the event that the unit requires additional power, as in the case of a DVI source not outputting the proper amount of voltage.
High Definition Television Defined
HDTV (high definition television) is a rapidly emerging video standard that transmits large amounts of visual data (resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 and 1080I) using DVI (digital visual interface) connectors, resulting is crisp, highly defined visuals that resemble movies shot on 35mm film. Since 2000, DVD players, computers, televisions and monitors have been equipped with the 24-pin DVI connection ports. DVI is the current transmitter of choice for HDTV because it is a purely digital interface that retains the integrity of the video signal through any transmission—even when sent over long lengths of cable. With DVI, there is no digital-to-analog or analog-to-digital conversion process that needs to take place before, during or after transmission. This streamlined, straightforward process makes DVI the current preferred interface for HDTV.
Fully HDCP Compliant
HDCP (high definition content protection) is a standard that is encoded into the video signal to prevent it from being pirated. If a source device is HDCP coded and is connected to a HDTV display or projector without the proper HDCP decoding mechanism, the picture is relegated to “snow” or in some cases, very low (480P) resolutions of the images. In order to see HDTV with HDCP compliance, both the source and display devices must be equipped with DVI connections that can enable HDCP decoding, such as the 4x1 HDTV Switcher.
How it Works
Simply connect your HDTV screen to the Switcher’s display output. Then, using the four high quality six-foot DVI cables that come with the 4x1 HDTV Switcher, plug each one into the four HDTV source devices, then connect them to the Switcher’s inputs. Once the source devices and the screen are powered on and connected, you simply switch between source devices using the RMT-4IR remote control or your own universal remote.
