I wonder if this device will work normally when I connect my PTZOptics 30X-SDI Gen 2 Live Streaming Broadcast Camera (1080p/60fps) via a converter AJA U-TAP USB 3.0 (3.2 Gen 1) Powered SDI Capture Device?
Asked by: Merab
The IOGEAR True 4K 3-Port HDMI Switch (B&H# IOGHSW8431) will switch between three HDMI inputs to put out a single HDMI output. It supports up to True DCI 4K resolution 4096 x 2160p60 and 18Gbps. If you have a source (such as a camera) putting out 1080p by HDMI then this can allow you to select between that an another HDMI source to put out your choice between the two (or up to three) to a single HDMI output.
