High-quality image scaling is maintained throughout.

DCS-200 offers straightforward and simple operating modes, and is ideal for use in live events, company boardrooms, hotel ballrooms, houses of worship, and in education and training facilities. As the ideal “simple” presentation switcher to learn and operate, DCS-200 provides a full screen output only, with no PIP capability.

DCS-200 accepts analog, DVI, and HD-SDI input sources and converts them to a wide variety of output formats. Output video is provided on analog and DVI connectors simultaneously. DCS-200 also allows you to capture and store up to three images to be used as full-screen logs during the presentation.
