The MXHD88A switches DVI/HDMI signals from any one of its eight inputs to any one of its eight outputs, and one input can be connected to multiple outputs. The Switcher comes with nine global presets for I/O configurations, programmable via the front-panel, RS-232 or IR control.
HDMI 1.3 Compliant
With the bandwidth to support 10.2 Gbps, the MXHD88A supports Full HD 1080P at up to 60 Hz. Additionally computer resolutions up to WUXGA (1920 x 1080 @ 60 Hz) are also supported and can be used in any input and switched freely between outputs. Also supported are Deep Color, automatic audio syncing capability, Dolby TrueHD lossless audio codec, DTS-HD losless audio codec. Control of CEC enabled displays is possible as the switcher passes IR CEC commands over the HDMI cable.
