EDID Minder — Automatically manages EDID communication between connected devices. It ensures that all sources power up properly and reliably outputs content for display.

Key Minder — Authenticates and maintains continuous HDCP encryption between input and output devices to ensure quick and reliable switching in professional AV environments, while enabling simultaneous distribution of a single source signal to one or more displays.

Ethernet extension — Centralized 10/100 Ethernet communication can be implemented via an Ethernet pass-through port to reduce the amount of independent network drops required within a system.

Remote power capability — To simplify integration, XTP transmitters and receivers can be powered by the XTP CrossPoint matrix switcher or XTP Power Injectors.

Multiple embedded audio formats — Compatible with a broad range of multi-channel audio signals, providing reliable operation with HDMI sources.

Transmitter HDMI loop-through with selectable audio control — Features an active HDMI output with support for embedded audio for connection to a local monitor.

Transmitter selectable analog stereo audio input embedding — Supports balanced or unbalanced audio for extended transmission by embedding stereo audio into the signal stream. This feature enables direct connection of separate stereo audio signals from a laptop, Blu-ray Disc player, or other device.

Receiver HDMI audio de-embedding with analog stereo and digital S/PDIF audio outputs — Digital HDMI audio is made available as a balanced or unbalanced analog stereo signal on captive screw connectors or a S/PDIF connector.
