The Linear 4x1 Switcher for HDMI 1.3 routes high denition video in multiple
resolutions up to 1080p plus multichannel digital audio from any of four sources to
one display. Four HDMI inputs accommodate the simultaneous connection of up to
four high denition video sources, such as satellite systems, Blu-ray and HD-DVD
players. The output sends the high denition audio/video signals to a high denition
display.
How It Works
You simply connect all your sources to the switcher’s HDMI inputs. Then connect
your display to the switcher’s HDMI output. Once the sources, the switcher and the
display are powered and connected, you simply select which source you want to
view using the IR remote, the selector buttons on the front panel, or by the RS-232
serial control interface.
