Great Value

By Robert
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2018-04-08

This matrix switch is an excellent value given its price: it functions as specified and is easy to install and operate. It's important to note that it is a "setup" switch and NOT an "in-production" switch; that is, it switches relatively slowly and will cause most connected equipment to detect signal path loss (and therefore to display any configured signal loss message) during switching.

question

Is it a true matrix. For example, Can you show 4 input sources to 1 output and 2 sources to output 2 and 2 sources to output 3. Can any number of inputs be routed to any output? Thanks
Asked by: Scott
Yes, this is a true matrix switcher. You will be able to assign any input to any output, including assigning an input to multiple outputs.

question

Does it support display resolution of 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz per output port?
Asked by: Anonymous
Yes it does. I have had this switch for about a year. It works well. Only issue is the fan is sort of noisy. Once it is out of warranty I plan to open it up and replace the fan with a quieter one.
