About the CrossPoint 42 Matrix Switcher

The Extron CrossPoint 42 HVA Matrix Switcher is an analog RGBHV matrix switcher, with stereo audio, that distributes any input to any combination of outputs. The matrix switcher can route multiple input/output configurations simultaneously.

The Extron CrossPoint 42 HVA Matrix Switcher switches RGBHV and two-channel stereo audio (balanced and unbalanced). It also switches RGBS, RGsB, RsGsBs, HDTV, component video, S-video, and composite video (figure 1-1). The audio switching can either be linked to the video (audio follow) or independent of the video (audio breakaway). Adjustable audio gain and attenuation compensates for level differences between audio inputs.

The CrossPoint 42 HVA is a single box solution to simple 300 MHz (-3dB) routing applications. Each input and output is individually isolated and buffered, and any of four input(s) can be switched to either or both outputs with virtually no crosstalk or signal noise between channels.

The CrossPoint 42 HVA is housed in rack-mountable, 1U high, 19” wide metal enclosure. The appropriate rack mounting kit is included with the switcher. The switcher has an internal 100VAC to 240VAC, 50/60 Hz, 40 watt, auto-switchable power supply that provides worldwide power compatibility.
