FAST SWITCHING TECHNOLOGY

What is Fast Switching Technology?

Fast Switching Technology (FST) is a Gefen software implementation for HDMI products. FST was created to improve the lengthy HDMI authentication process, based on the HDMI and HDCP specifications.

FST provides quicker audio/video source switching and greatly improves the overall audio/ video system behavior and performance when more than one HDTV display is used in the system setup.

FST allows connecting / disconnecting or turning ON / OFF of HDTV displays without having these activities affect other Hi-Def sources routed to any other HDTV display in the same system.

Using Fast Mode

Use fast switching mode to improve performance when connecting / disconnecting Hi-Def sources, and powering ON / OFF HDTV displays.

1.Disconnect the power supply from the 1:2 Splitter for HDMI 4K x 2K.

2.Set the FST switch to the Fast position.

3.Reconnect the power supply to the splitter.

If the FST switch is moved from the Slow position to the Fast position while the splitter is powered, then power-cycle the splitter by disconnecting and reconnecting the power supply in order for the change to take effect.
