Lightware MX8x8HDMI-Pro
HDCP Compliant Pro Series 8x8 HDMI Matrix
MX8x8HDMI‑Pro supports DVI 1.0, HDCP 1.2 and HDMI 1.3 deep color standards. This high performance router has eight HDMI inputs and eight HDMI outputs.
Description
The built‑in sophisticated software and hardware features turn this router into the most flexible integrated solution for AV professionals and high end home theatre applications. Any input can be switched to any one or more outputs without switching delay or frame latency. Supporting HDMI 1.3 36 bit deep colour standard, it can be connected to Blu-Ray players, set top boxes, AV receivers or Apple TV.
Advanced HD audio transmission and sample rate conversion assures compatibility with previous generation products while also handling Dolby TrueHD and DTS‑HD.
All inputs are equalized and reclocked for up to 60 meters of DVI copper cable, and all outputs of the matrix router are reclocked for stable, jitter-free signal transmission. The unit can be controlled either via the RS‑232 / RS‑422 port, TCP/IP LAN connection or via the built‑in website.
