DESCRIPTION

The Extron SW AV Series is a line of high-performance, vertical interval composite video, S-video, and stereo audio switchers. Offering the ultimate in flexibility, the SW AV Series switchers are available with up to 12 inputs. Composite and S-video switchers feature a genlock input and loop-through, providing synchronization of video signals of one device with those from another video source and resulting in smooth and clean transitions when switching between inputs. Each model with audio includes adjustable gain and attenuation, allowing users to set the individual input audio levels, providing no significant difference in volume when switching between sources. All of the switchers can be controlled via the front panel buttons, RS-232, contact closure on four & six input models only, or via two different, optional remote control devices: the Extron KP 6 keypad and IR 102 universal remote kit.

Composite Video Models

SW 12AV RCA

Composite models have 300 MHz (-3dB) of bandwidth. Video inputs are on female BNC connectors. Two individually buffered composite video outputs are also on female BNC connectors.

Balanced/unbalanced stereo audio is accepted on

3.5mm captive screw connectors, while unbalanced stereo audio is accepted on RCA connectors for

SW RCA models. Dual audio outputs are on RCA and/or captive screw connectors.
