3.1About the 8X8 DVI-D Matrix Switch
The 8X8 DVI-D Matrix Switch is a high-performance professional computer and audio signal switch that can be used for cross switching multiple computer and audio signals. Independent DVI and balance/unbalance I/O terminals enable each component signal to transmit and switch separately; this design can maximize the performance of both image and audio signal.
This Matrix Switch features flexible functionality and may be used in broadcast TV engineering, in multimedia meeting rooms, for big-screen display engineering, for television education, command control centers, or other fields. It provides a power-fail local protection function, LCD display, and A/V separate switching functions. It also has an adaptable compensation to extend the input distance to 70 feet. With the RS-232 interface, it can be used with a PC, a remote control system, or any other third-party control system devices.
Two versions of the 8X8 DVI-D Matrix Switch are available: the AVSW-DVI8X8 Matrix Switch with full audio capabilities, and the VSW-DVI8X8 Matrix Switch without audio.
